Does the recent NTU deaths affect ur decision to apply to NTU?
haha i dun think so right.. unless u wanna go in EEE lahh (some electrical engineering thingy.)
Okay when i first read the article bout the David Hartanto Widjaja "stabbing" the professor Dr Chan i felt it was abit biased.
mainly because i felt Dr Chan was overly praised by colleagues for being such a good prof.
Cant find the article on the Straits Times online.
But i didnt give further thought to that.
Until today my mom came back and told me her friend's relative who is oso in NTU said the the prof is oso to blame for the incident.
Curious, i went to check out online and i was damn shock to see so many forums and blogs trying to clear Widjaja's name.
and that what the media reported may not be the case of what happened.
Okay here r some points i sieved out :D
"For the past week, the mainstream media has portrayed – intentionally or not — David as a reclusive loner hell-bent on murder. The motivation? His grades had slipped, and his scholarship was revoked. He became a deranged math genius who lost all sense of rationality. That seemed like a pretty neat explanation.
The media portrayed "..David was the aggressor. The story goes that the professor was stabbed when his back was facing David. After the alleged assault, David then slashed his wrists, walked out the office, and climbed onto a linkway between two buildings before falling to his death"
the problem lies with the source of this "fact" reported in the Straits Times.
"Yesterday, the first day of class after a week-long university term break, began ordinarily enough, with Associate Professor Chan Kap Luk, 45, meeting final-year engineering student David Hartanto Widjaja in the don’s campus office.
On the table for discussion: The undergraduate’s Final-Year Project (FYP), the first draft of which was due for submission next Tuesday.
But less than an hour into the meeting, Widjaja, 21, an Indonesian student from Jakarta, suddenly whipped out a knife.
Prof Chan, who had his back to the student and was facing his computer, had no idea what was coming.
Widjaja then began plunging the knife into the professor’s back, the don’s colleagues said.
They added that Prof Chan tried to grab the knife from Widjaja, but ended up with more cuts to his right hand."
So they r most likely to be alone right? Den where did this colleague of his get the info?? This "facts" are kinda messed up!
And David was said to have stabbed the prof in his back.. look at the chair lahh it reaches till the shoulder. Even if the prof was leaning forward if the colleague witness was in the room he would most probably stopped David coz it would be so obvious that he's holding a knife??
More messed up "facts".
Media said portrayed David as a loner.
"1. Having Mental problem and a Loner? How can David be a loner while he was a president of an electrical club at NTU? A president needs to communicate and members will asked him for reference. so is he a loner? He also has many close friends and his friend was stuffed in disgust after reading this claim."
Perhaps the media portrayed David as such to make it similar to the Virginia Tech killing spree case in the US so that the entire fault falls on David's instable mind etc etc...
In my opinion, the professor definitely had smth to do with this.
"3. Media said that he slit his wrist and jumped from the building His parent during a meeting with fellow student at NTU said that there is no wounds in his wrist. Part of his body that is actually wounded is his neck slit by a knife. This make sense as his cloth was full with blood when the deceased was found. If the slit his wrist, only parts of his cloth will have the blood stains. some people said that his back was full with knife wounds ( not confirmed yet and it is impossible to have a confirmation because his body has been cremated.)"
seriously why is his body cremated to fast??
"Parents accessed to the deceased body was limited. When they arrived at Singapore they want to see the deceased body but the police said under Sg law they are not allowed to see the body until the next day. At night they go to the scene and was suprised to see that no police line was placed and the scene has been "cleaned". Next morning, David's parents and brother went to the hospital to see the deceased but again their accessed was limited. They are only allowed to see the head to the neck. Part of body below the neck was wrapped by plastic and the police said, again, under Singapore's law it is not possible to see the deceased whole body. I do not know anything about Singapore's Law so i hope somebody who are expert can help. The deceased family also want to visit the professor but the NTU person said that it is not possible as he is still under operation and in critical condition. But what baffle them more is that when the parents was in Airport at the evening (same day), the evening newspaper has reported that the professor has been discharge from hospital.
oh well. cant even speak to the prof to clarify stuff.
"3. I and some Indonesian students gather tonight, 3 March 2009, at 8 pm, at International Student Center and talked to David’s parent. They have seen his body. There was NO WOUND whatsoever on his wrists and police also has confirmed it. I assumed that his parent would not lie it means that all media news about ‘David slashed his wrist’ was FAKE."
"4. The wounds found on David’s body, according to his parents, were on his head (It is assumed due to fall injury), and slash wound on his neck. The wound on his neck is very suspicious, in my opinion. How he received that wound?? Again, according to his parent, police guessed that it may be happened when the bottom part of his head smashed the ground. In that case, his chin will have broken and it did not. My question is: WHERE DOES THAT SLASH WOUND ON HIS NECK CAME FROM?"
okay there r many many more points but i lazy put. haha u can read onlinecitizen which i think is more substantial.
It's so said really if the dead gets maligned. He's already dead so he cant defend himself.
Anw, seriously if u got a prob dont commit suicide should seek help!
im looking forward to more truths in the Straits Times bout this case.
oh yah, some project officer from EEE oso hanged himself. Are the deaths linked??
No idea lahh. But it's super fishy!
haha. oh well i oso not Sherlock Homes. shall leave it to the experts and hopefully his death is justified.
and i wanna post Teri and my facebook stories! so LOL lahs. haha.
some story entertainment :D
it started with...
me: hahaha Squishy has invited Huai sian's Bibi to Icecream Rainbow land coz Squishy felt Bibi needs to put on some weight!! hahaha. and ur teddy oso need!! so they can go there and swim in chocolate waterfalls and grow lollipops haha!
BUT actually its a secret plot to lure and kill teddyyyy!! just kiddinggggg. Squishy and Bibi are not that bad.. hahaha.
They just think ur teddy smells like salmon... alot like salmon. slurp.
Teri: OMG!!! quick run away from jamie & that evil THING of hers (squishy the fatty bom bom)! jamie & squishy intend to fatten bibi & my bear up right? then kill both of them and cook stew!!! how could u jamie?! ): oh oh maybe thats ur plan A... ur plan B is to leave both of them alone and let them die cause they will grow so fat & unhealthy from eating those junk food!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! RUNNNNN!!!
we can now hear squishy's evil laughter in the background! (sound: MUHAHAHAHAHA - mojojojo's type)
squishy is "running" towards bibi & teri's bear now! (sound: swish swosh swish - squishy's flippers sound)
oh no squishy is holding an empty Pringles can! bibi & bear suddenly realise its a weapn!!! (sound: piu piu piu - cartoon laser gun sound) the Pringles can is shooting sour cream & onion flavored chips at bibi & bear!
bear gets hit by the razor-sharp Pringles chips! (sound: ouch!) bibi stops & tries to help bear... (bibi: oh no u are cotton-ing!) *definition of cotton-ing: a stuffed animal "bleeding" cotton.
when bibi stops to help bear, squishy the fatty bom bom catches up with them & points the Pringles can at bibi. bibi is really scared & wants to go home to its dearest owner huai sian. (sound: bibi whimpers)
omg JAMIE!!! :D u continue this story!!! its like a superhero & villian drama story...
me: haha the long anticipated continued story!!!
Squishy aims the Pringle container at Bibi with one menacing eye. Den Bibi rmb Huai sian always watch the powerpuff girls and it mustered some strength and with a yell it slapped off the Pringle container from Squishy's slimy fins!!
The Pringle container flew and crashed onto bear's head. oh dear. haha. Bibi: oopsie!!
And seizing this chance, Squishy pulls out a huge golden caramel + SALMON lollipop to gong them on their heads!!
Bibi rmb that Squishy loves salmon that it would not sacrifice a salmon food so Squishy is not itself!! Bibi facial expression: =O
What the fattyblubber is going on??!
But Squishy charges and with all it's blubber and seal might it crashes down the lolly. But Bibi rmb Huai sian the movie the Matrix and evades with an expert twist and the lolly missed Bibi by a mere pinky!!
The lolly crashes onto the ground and shatters, spilling out luscious creamy golden caramel and salmon pieces and Squishy tumbles over from the impact and lands straight inside the caramel+salmon puddle with its backside sticking out.
And that's when where Bibi saw a prominent mole on Squishy's backside!! =O
But when Bibi touched it, the mole sprung 8 legs and alas it was a Nimposidetococolaptolatpoopooyoyo spider!!
Bear saw it and knew that such a spider was implanted to control ... Squishy's mind! So when the spider started to scurry away Bear bodyslammed the spider and did all the actions WWE told children not to try at home to it.
And the spider laid sprawled out on the floor flattened, slimed by saliva and dead.
Bear stinky-breath the spider to make sure it was really dead.
And den Bibi used the caramel cream to stick Bear's wounds 2gether and pulled Squishy out.
Only did they slap Squishy 500 times each and farted den did Squishy truly wake up from its trance.
Bear:"Who planted the spider on you Squishy???! WHOOOOO?!" Squishy: "I .. I was eating candy canes and icecream noodles happily down the choco river when I saw this chocolate round float streaming by!! slurp. And it was whispering to me in this hypnotic voice 'come to me squishy im very yummy'. I was so enchanted to hopped onto it! BUT before i chomped onto it, i realized it was very dark...very large...very mouldy... and it went MUAHAHAHA and den i knew it was-"
all three screams insanely: "THE NO-CREAM-SIDE OREO COOKIE MONSTERRR!! AHHHHHHH!!"
They knew that in the whole world of Rainbow Icecream Wonderland the no cream side of the oreo cookie was always rejected because everyone wants the cream side!!
So all of it combined and became an evil mouldy NO-CREAM-SIDE OREO COOKIE MONSTERRRR!!
As soon as they screamed finish, a dark figure loomed and towered over them from behind.
An array of razor white sharp teeth spread into an evil smile. And it glared at them with its beady white eyes.
The 3 fooderteers trembled in its shadow and looked at him with their best huge i-so-poor-thing watery eyes.
But even the cutest and fattest of all pets know they cannot merely escape this horrible creature's clutches...
YOU CONTINUE TERI!! HAHAHA!!
