STOP FIGHTHING!!!

Are the youngsters nowadays have too much leisure time? Or is it due to their poor upbringing that makes them commit such an inhumane act. These guys think that by using violence, problems will be solved and it will make them real man. In fact these people are not real man. Real men are people who can do without violence and still strike down the opponents with reason, sharp thinking and intelligence. If one is a real man, we need no violence to justify our masculinity. Apparently these people have none of these so their only pride is their anger and mindless act of violence. To me, a man who can’t control their anger is a loser even though he may have won other men, like in terms of fighting.

Last Monday, seven youths were involved in the gang fight at Bukit Panjang. The group of attackers were said to be yelling "369", which is a gang affiliation. One of the resident said that, in the past 2 months there are youngsters playing skateboard and making a nuisance of themselves there. They make noise throughout the night, sometimes till 1 to 2am and or even 3 to 4am.

I wonder why the residents there didn’t make a police report on this ‘hooligans’ who are disturbing their night rest earlier. If only they had made a police report earlier, the gang fight that happened on Monday could have been avoided as the police will surely do something about it. I am saying this based on my experience as in my neighbourhood we also have youngsters that make so much noise and even fighting sometimes at night about 11pm onwards. We make a police report on them and now it is much more peaceful. If we want to make our neighbourhood safe, we also need to play a part in it and always be vigilant.

To solve the problem of these youngsters who are involved in gang activities, they should get counselling immediately. Schools should monitor those students, who have bad behaviour or play truant often. Instead of expelling them, they should find out the problem behind their behaviour and guide them back to the correct path. By expelling them, the situation might get worse as there will be no one to guide and monitor them as majority of their parents are working.

The neighbourhood police need to do more patrons at our housing estate, especially those affected areas. Respective Community Centre’s can work together with the police force to catch these ‘hooligans’ before more innocent lives are injured or lost. I am sure that if all the Singaporeans help out to catch these gang members, gang fights might not occur at all anymore.
