The following expressed are my views about the peeping tom incident involving National University of Singapore (NUS) undergraduates Monica Baey and Nicholas Lim; firstly as a citizen and secondly as a father who has a daughter studying in a local university.
I shall call a spade a spade. The 12-month conditional warning and suspension for a single semester Nicholas Lim received from the police and NUS respectively were way too lenient.
Now that this case has gone public, NUS owes all parents who have daughters studying at its various institutions and all its female students a clear, proper and convincing explanation as to why an obviously more fitting and severe punishment commensurate with the perpetrator's transgression wasn't meted out. (And please, NUS, just a gentle reminder, do not treat members of the public as fools, unthinking and/or spineless cowards.)
According to various news reports, his actions were not a spur-of-the-moment sort of behaviour but rather, a deliberate and calculated one. Yet the police's manner of response to Monica Baey was grossly insulting, disappointing and unsettling among other things.
