Voices: Leave gay law unchanged

Tuesday • October 16, 2007

Letter from RON CHONG KER CHUEN

I WRITE regarding the recent online campaign urging the Government to repeal Section 377A of the Penal Code, under which it is a crime for men to have sex with other men.

My wife and I have always tried to educate our children well. Morality and values are definitely two of the most important issues that we, as parents impart.

One good way for the children to take the cue from is the Singapore law and we teach them to abide by these.

We recognise that it is very much the responsibility of parents to educate our younger generation, and the Government's decision to maintain the status quo for Section 377A will greatly assist us in this.
