7:14 PM | Address Re : Concerns of the concerned students.
To the concerned student, I recongised the fact that you are not very pleased with the performance of the students' council, which ( please do correct me if I'm mistaken) that such incidents has been appearing for a long period already. I do not know how did you stumble by our blog's name, but I do hope that you will not give it out as this is our council's personal blog. We are looking into the matter of starting up a forum for the Student Population to voice out your opinion.

Alright, back to the main issue. Firstly, I will not and shall not deny that the councillors are very playful at times and like all natural human beings, we falter. What I have written on the blog are INTELLECTUAL advise for them to learn and pick up they are NOT PRACTICAL FORMULAS where it can transform one drasctically overnight. Therefore I wouldnt really conclude that the things posted inside here are ironic,unless I am the group of councillors you are refering to. I'm sure you would face situations where you will still forget your homework even when your teachers remind you to do so. As they go, to err is human!

I am most comforted that you have managed to recognise the fact that being a councillor means to undertake heavy duty, and it comes under scrutiny of the student population, people such as yourself. Therefore, before I can explain and give you a satisfactory answer, I do hope to seek for your understanding in giving the councillors room for error before you judge ever so swiftly.

Moving on, no one is perfect! As I've rationalised with you earlier, that this posts written by myself, cannot assure anyone of being a perfect leader! I'm no perfect leader by all means. I do lose my temper pretty often. The s3s are very willing to testify on that. But lets not squabble over such puny matter shall we? At your next post in our tagboard, you speak of the fact that there is a rampant scenario where students are cutting queue frequently. Let me ask you one thing, lets just say that there isnt any councillors there, will the students in the queue themselves voice out that. hey! please dont cut queue? Will you? If you are not prepared to do so, then it will bring me to my next point. How then can we, as a student council, as a student representative and leader go on without the support of the very people we pledge our allegiance to? Concured? Okay, maybe You would be able to do that, I beseech you to put yourself into their shoes. They are SACRIFICING their own recess to help out in this duty. I therefore must disagree with you that they should specially forgo some time of their recess to help out as there are sufficient man power depolyed for the work.

Everyone's hungry during that period of time! Being so, it seems to me that it is very normal and within the limits of humanity that they speak to their friends in the queue, although it is very much discouraged so.

I feel for the fact that they might sound a little arrogant and very irritating when they told you " What can I do?" I do hope you can take the time and efffort to tell me the names personally? You should know who I am. If you dont feel comfortable doing so, you can get your friends to pass the word by mouth. I am of upmost regret to inform you that such problems CANNOT be diagnosed and cured at its roots given the current situations that I've listed to you. I'll just summarise for your sake,

1) The gangsters are too intimidating for some of the councillors

2) Students's support isnt strong enough to project the message out.

Therefore, as you may have now realised, we have managed to extend the recess timing for the sake of those innocent students and we strongly urge them to step forward and cast shadows of embarresment on those who do jump queue.
Yes, as councillors we do help the teachers, and all school staff to mould the school into a better shape, but that can only be accomplished if the school sees the flaw the way we do and are willing to go through changes, which might not be very popular. Unless there is such a situation, I implore to you the fact that we can only do our best to make it a SLIGHTLY better place. With that I must also draw you to that fact that the Students' Council isn't as bad as many people percieve us to be! There are many achievements that we are very proud to show to the school, but the reason that we would not revel in our own glory and achievements is that we know that unless we compel ourselves in situations where cannot be proud,we still stand a chance in basking ourselves in our pride which, eventually will lead to our downfall.

Finally, I would like to thank you for your very candid feedback given to us, but on that note, I do hope that you will not continue to publish your thoughts onto our tagboard as like I have mention, this blog is strictly CHR councillors' communication network.
May the peace of the Lord be on us all.

If there's still any queries,do email me @ allied_axisliu@hotmail.com

Yours Truly,

Isaac Liu
Current Students' Council President
