Hypocrisy • ACS alumni's statement defends privilege, not principles

The ACS Old Boys' Association's widely circulated online statement, urging SPH Media to “remove the school’s name” or “apply a consistent approach across all individuals mentioned” in its article, “Singapore scam gang operating in Cambodia allegedly led by two brothers” (Oct 30), is a masterclass in tone-deaf hypocrisy.

If a person’s actions are publicly known, and his alma mater happens to be part of his biography, that’s not a smear — it’s a fact.

What you are demanding is not fairness; it’s selective amnesia. You are not defending principles; you are defending privilege.
