Educators: Where did we go wrong??

Couple of days ago, i flipped through the newspaper and read something that appalled and disgusted me. A teacher throwing degratory statements which were along racial lines to students that can barely think rationally?? I thought racism was behind us. Its been 39 years since that fateful day that marred Malaysia's name and stature on the world arena but it seems as if we have learned nothing from the mass killings and innocent loss of lives that has haunted us ever since. And coming from a teacher?? The very person that we look up to, expecting words of wisdom but instead be subjected to racial taunts and insults and at such a tender age?? These people are suppose be providers of knowledge, experts at moulding our country's next generation of leaders and catalysers that will propell our nation to greater heights and gain the long due recognition that has been alluding us thus far. Sadly, what have we come to?? The perpetrator has been let off the hook with nothing but....nothing really! All she got was a transfer, away from the problem that she caused in the first place. How is this a punishment?? This was clearly noted by Lim Guan Eng, the chief minister of Penang during a recent debate with a fellow politician. Where is the implementation of the seditious act?? Where is the control of speech? Don't we all have boundaries in ensuring a productive yet harmonious community?? I'm sure i speak for majority of our nation when i say that 'educator' should be taught a harsher lesson in humility. Let racism be a thing of the past!
