A tale of two professors

SINGAPORE (Reuters) – A Singaporean professor who nicked bras and panties has pleaded guilty to stealing women’s underwear from a university dormitory, a local newspaper reported on Saturday.

The 39-year old man — an associate professor in a Chinese university — was charged for taking women’s underwear from a university hostel’s clothes-line last December, the Straits Times reported.

The Singaporean professor, who teaches in China, was in the city-state for his leave when he committed the crime. He was caught by a dormitory security guard who found female undergarments in his haversack.

Full story here.

This is just too funny! No, I do not mean that this professor’s psychiatric disorder is funny. I think that it is creepy that someone, especially someone as learned as this professor, has a fetish for underwear. Creepy!

Reminds of a best friend who has lost some underwear while they were being hung on the clothes line. To this day she still doesn’t know who had stolen her underwear.

Earlier I read how a Singaporean professor, Professor Choon Fong Shih will be the Founding President of KAUST, the new world-class, graduate-level scientific research university now under development in Saudi Arabia.

I am sure Singaporeans are proud of the fact that of all the people considered, Professor Choon Fong Shih was selected. And I am also sure Singaporeans are also embarrassed that the other professor was caught and charged for stealing girls’ underwear!
