Re: Neil Bantlemann Guilty!!

I have read only a little of this - enough to see that Neil was in a floor-to-ceiling, glass-walled office, others were present, and that people around him, including his wife, say he and ?Ferdi (whose name seems to have been forgotten) cannot be guilty. As I have seen 1 questionable person in international education, and hundreds of lovely, dedicated educators, I side with Neil and Ferdi.

I wonder: if you believe these men are innocent, and you work for JIS or another international school in Indonesia, HOW can you stay? Everything is different when you are 'in it', but I like to think I would resign immediately, and get out of Indonesia. Hitting businesses in the pocket book is the only thing that they feel. In the case of powerful, entitled parents, having no school for their children to attend would be dramatic. If all international schools in Indonesia were FORCED to close, due to no staff, even for a month, it would wake someone up.

Too bad we cannot come together in a big, impacting way on these issues. Maybe we need an international teacher insurance fund.
