"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to talk about this important Motion of deploying chaplains to learning institutions. This is basically paying attention to the moral fragment of our society. As much as I want to support it with my whole heart, I find myself holding back. We are slowly moving to a nanny state, whereby everything is controlled by someone. Discipline cannot be instilled in students like it was done in the past. Instilling discipline depends on the fragment of a child’s upbringing or where you are working. There is a common saying in our society: “I have cut a deal”. This means one made a quick buck somewhere outside the ordinary situation. He or she would have done something smart out of the ordinary because of discipline and character. “Cutting a deal” is the order of the day in this society. Making a quick buck in a family is not ideally wrong. If we send chaplains to schools, are they going to help? A few Members have mentioned here that we have Christian Religious Education (CRE). I studied that subject. In accordance to my Sikh faith, we attended the Sikh Faith School every Saturday and Sunday. The teachings were in line with our beliefs.
