What's on everyone's lips at St. Xaviers Institution? Brother Paul Ho, current principal of the Penang high school may not step down just yet. Rumours has been flying about in the past two years about the principal's impending retirement which would ultimately end the reign of the school by the brothers. Brother Paul has been slated to leave the school by the end of this academic year in December.
However, at a meeting which took place on Friday night, he announced that he is not leaving yet. Sources have confirmed that he has post poned his retirement to the middle of next year (2009). Tongues have been wagging that the principal is attempting to ensure that everything is well under way before his decent from his post. There has been speculation that there is a tug-of-war situation between the high school's authorities to grab the much-desired top notch position.
Also, Bro. Paul has just recently elected a board of govenors for St. Xaviers Institution, St. Xaviers Branch School and St. Xavier's LaSalle. The main interest of the board is in the welfare of the three schools and will not coincide with the interest of the school's ruling authorities.
How will this fairytale of school politics end?
