The Battles Goes On !

First of all I would like to state that this posting is, in no way connected to any event in question and that it is posted with no prejudice or bias.

Ok, Out of interest I was reading through some web-sites on exam cheats. And I can't help but laugh at the battle between examination boards and students , parents and even teachers. Of course this is a universal thing. From China to Egypt and the United Kingdom.... the battle goes on.
Here are the headlines and web-sites.

Come to think of it -- I do not know of any nick-names for it. I guess Malaysians' sense of 'humour' is far advanced.
