Putting the public on good behaviour


I REFER to the letter “Think again before hitting ‘Share’” (The Star, Sept 11). The writer wrote at length about the negative aspects of sharing videos on social media. He referred in particular to the video of a woman in an angry tirade with an enforcement officer of the Subang Jaya Municipal Council. He felt that she didn’t seem violent or had any intention to hurt anyone.

But I beg to differ. Anyone looking at the video would not be the least surprised if the officer was physically assaulted with the steering lock. The saving grace was that he kept his cool and contained his emotions despite the verbal abuse.
