"We are sorry that she had to surface her concerns on social media for the University to take notice," NUS president Tan Eng Chye said in his letter.
"We fell short in providing her support from the start, and we apologise. We hope to set things right," he said.

Yes, NUS NUS can do better in providing emotional support and counselling to the victim and in bringing forth - how the justice is done, what are mitigating factor and emotional help to the victim - instead of just presenting the remorse letter to the victim.
Without proper explanation to the victim and emphatise with the victim -- the victim will feel that she is not treated fairly - and burst out.

Having say so, I feel that :-
(1) The Police and AGC handling of this case is not out of line and i feel is appropriate given all the mitigating facts presented.
(2) NUS framework of handling of this case in terms of punishment working in conjunction with the Police - is also not out of line.
(3) As for the MOE Minister suggestion of reviewing of the framework --- I am open to the idea - as long as it meet the criteria of "effective deterrence to prevent crime" --- but not excessive --- with the view of rehabilitation of the offender if he is remorseful and has a good chance of rehabilitation.
(4) NUS can do better in providing emotional support and counselling to the victim and in bringing forth - how the justice is done, what are mitigating factor and emotional help to the victim - instead of just presenting the remorse letter to the victim.
