A Hong Kong school principal has been suspended pending an investigation after a viral video showed him swearing at security guards in Singapore, marking the latest incident in a growing series of controversies involving Hong Kong educators abroad.

The South China Morning Post, CNA, The Straits Times, and AsiaOne all reported that Lee Cheuk-hing, principal of San Wui Commercial Society Secondary School in Tuen Mun, was seen in a video berating security staff at Safra Jurong over an illegally parked bus.

Hong Kong’s Education Bureau confirmed it was looking into the case, with sources indicating the principal’s suspension was immediate and without pay. Singapore’s Police Force has not yet commented on whether charges will be filed, though local media noted the incident occurred in a public space under Singapore’s strict laws against public disorder.

The video, which circulated widely on social media, shows Lee using Cantonese to address the guards, with some reports describing his language as aggressive. Witnesses at Safra Jurong reportedly intervened, and the school later issued a statement expressing regret for the incident.
