Ex-Principal, ACS

Dear Mr Ng Eng Chin,

The accusations have taken a toll on you and your family
Do not despair for justice will prevail, and friends, you have many
You have been an outstanding principal and counselor
Ride the storm as I pray for thou to have no fear


Parents and former students feel your pain
Placing others before self, you should not feel any shame
Life is filled with ups and downs, life can sometimes be unkind
Remember that your dedication to the teaching profession is no crime
In you, Mr Ng Eng Chin, many believe
Is that not that to you, some relief?



Like you, at work, I had been unfairly treated
From that job, I retreated
But with God’s will and unflagging support from family and friends
I did not and will not be defeated
For when God closes a door, he opens a window
The truth will eventually emerge and your kindness the whole world will know



Do not hang your head low, I say to thee
For the best is yet to be
They may take away your job as they deem fit
But never give up that fighting spirit
This unfortunate episode will open new opportunities
For even though I do not know you personally, my belief in you will never cease


Sincerely,

Raymond Anthony Fernando
