Video: Year 6 Student Bullied

Yesterday New Straits Times Online reported about an alleged school bully incident that has gone viral on social media involving a Year 6 pupil in Jalan Langgar, Alor Star, Kedah.

Looking at the video, I guess it was recorded by one of the bullies’ friend or maybe by one of them.

I’m very sad to see such an incident and I have lots of things to question the bullies:

1.  Why must they bully their friend? At that age, they should have known that bullying is bad and it is against the school rules.

2. How did they feel when they were doing what they did and how did they feel when they watched the video of the incident? They recorded the incident, seems to be proud of what they did and even laughed at the victim when they should be ashamed of their actions.

3. For what reasons, did they recorded the incident? Was it to show their power against the victim? Aren’t they ashamed of themselves?

4. Did they know that they hurt their parents and teachers by doing what they did?

Is bullying part of liberalism, meaning that a person want to liberalise the existing laws and to express their freedom of expression? 

We are human and we are civilised so we must understand that we have our responsibilities as a student, a human being and a citizen of our country; so we cannot be selfish, we have to think about others, we must make ourselves good and help others be good too.
