Im a 17 year old from a Junior College. I find it absoulutely absurd that we have been given a letter from the college which states that we have been SPECIALLY chosen to attend one of the YOG events.
I find it absurd that we have been asked or rather mobilised to go for the Football match this Sunday at Jln Besar Stadium when the government for the past few months has been telling us, we members of the public that sale of YOG tickets for the events ”are going very well”.
This leads me to wonder why then is MOE issuing a directive to colleges to get students to go for some of these events. The truth is that many of these events are only in their preliminary stages and thus no one would want to attend. Thus it would look very very bad for the host country if no one were to attend these games.
But honestly, I think we are being treated like slaves. The college has handed down instructions that anyone who do not attend these games will have to do 6 hours of Corrective Work Order. Why use such drastic methods ?
Furthermore, the college had also forced us to go down and support the Torch bearers. So that it would look good on newspaper.. this is rather oppressive and I see no difference between the YOG committee, MOE, the government and the Communists in China where people were forced to attend events just to make up the numbers.
IM WRITING THIS ON BEHALF OF EVERY JUNIOR COLLEGE STUDENT WHO HAS BEEN FORCED TO ATTEND ANY YOG EVENTS/GAMES.
