Letter from Koh Wee Keng
There are certain things that need to be protected, such as individual freedom and the freedom not to be bullied. There is no such thing as the freedom to bully.
Caning is by far the most proven form of prevention of problems such as violence.
Schools seeking the parents’ endorsement before meting out such a punishment is the mark of a civil society. After the pain is gone, caning as a lesson has a high retention value, even for those who merely witnessed it.
