30 years' jail for engineer who sexually groomed, assaulted 31 teenage boys

SINGAPORE: An engineer who sexually assaulted teen boys was on Friday (Mar 20) sentenced to 30 years' jail and 24 strokes of the cane, in what Justice Woo Bih Li described as the "worst case of sexual offending against pubescent boys".

Yap Weng Wah, a 31-year-old Malaysian who moved to Singapore in 2009, sexually groomed at least 31 boys aged 11 to 15 after befriending them online. He either sodomised or had oral sex with 30 of the boys at his rented flats, in hotels or at swimming complexes. Yap persuaded the other victim to send him a video capturing himself performing a lewd act.

These acts happened between November 2009 and June 2012.

His deeds came to light when the sister of one of the victims checked her brother’s mobile phone.

Yap was arrested in September 2012 and more than 2,000 videos of his sexual acts were found on his laptop and phone, including details of the victims' name and age. On Jan 16, he pleaded guilty and was convicted of 12 charges of sexual penetration of a minor.

In sentencing, Justice Woo noted that Yap had preyed on a large number of victims in a period of two-and-a-half years and had used the Internet to widen his reach.

Shocking! Why at this day and age people still cannot leave teens alone? Just come out and look for an actual bf! Is there a special thrill in seeking the underage that an adult can't fulfil? Is it worth the punishment?

I think boys are maturing very fast in today's society especially with the advent of the Internet. While we should punish adults who take advantage of young boys, I feel somehow we also educate the young to avoid putting themselves into such a situation as well.

 

I fully agree. Kids nowadays are getting increasingly precocious. Like when I was in primary 4 already some of my friends watch porn and talk about masturbation. It's shocking...They should think of some measures for kids above 16 to deter them from engaging in such atrocities with adults. Of course the onus is on the adult, but I wonder what happens if both are minors? There are definitely kids below 16 who have sex.

But look at the contents of this forum, they are licentious and lewd; I believe the authorities are monitoring it, which is good. If we look at ourselves and what we post we really are just a step away from committing atrocities. This is just one guy who cannot control his lust and went to the extreme. How many of us can control our lust even though we use "legitimate" ways to satisfy it? For those who do not believe in energy it is ok, but for those who do, every single indulgence in lust adds on to the collective. Wars break out because individuals collectively generate angry and hateful energy. In a way the lust aggregates and those especially prone to it are influenced by it, going to extremes. Of course this idea sounds rather ridiculous to most people, but I hope some may take something from it and reflect that perhaps on some level our own negative thoughts and emotions of lust, anger, hatred, jealousy all contribute to the world condition.

Which is why there is a good need for moderation on this forum. We may be on the border line, people may be watching us, but it is more important that we do not cross the line. That will put an end to everything.

 

People watching us will normally be tolerant to a certain extend until you cross that threshold.

Law should change, people who above 13 is old enough to use his brain to think, wait, thought kids are getting smart now ? Or just good in studies not for others.

Even more brilliant when they are talking. Even more expert with gadget. I need a month to get use with Apple and they able to make it like a blink, even can teach their uncle (which is me). The milk formula is helping them to grow faster, maybe?

The guy is preying on underage boys and justly deserves the sentence under Singapore laws. We do as a society have a moral obligation to protect our young.

 

There already are people, and there will always be some who will point to a pedophile like the Engineer and say all gay people are like that. The thing we need to remember is that pedophiles target children, regardless of sexual orientation. The situation is unfortunate, especially for his victims, who may or may not be willing. Nonetheless, what happened will affect their lives. 

Love.

The evolution of the social landscape has a significant impact to young generation especially the maturity of end user is questionable.

Engineer who preyed on 31 young boys gets 30 years' jail, 24 strokes of the cane

SINGAPORE - An engineer who preyed on 31 victims, in what was described as Singapore's worst case of sex offences against young boys, has been sentenced to 30 years in jail and 24 strokes of the cane.

Yap Weng Wah, 31, had sexually groomed the boys, who were aged between 11 and 15, after meeting them online. In all but one case, he either sodomised or had oral sex with them at his rental flat, in hotel rooms and toilets at shopping centres and swimming pools.

When his Yishun home was raided after his arrest in September 2012, police found more than 2,000 videos on his laptop of him having sex with others, including young boys. The videos had been meticulously catalogued with the boys' names, ages and year he met them.

The prosecution had sought a minimum 30-year jail term, and 24 strokes of the cane.

The Malaysian quality assurance engineer moved here to work in 2009. He befriended the boys on Facebook using different identities, but usually as an 18-year-old polytechnic student. Some of the boys accepted his friend request after seeing that they shared mutual friends.

He gained their trust by portraying himself as an older brother or mentor, sometimes over several weeks or months.

Between November 2009 and June 2012, he cajoled 30 of the boys into consenting to having anal or oral sex with him. The other victim, 12, was persuaded to send Yap a video of himself performing a lewd act.

Yap recorded most of the sex acts with the 30 boys on his mobile phone. When they protested, he assured them he would delete the footage. However, he stored the videos on his laptop, and would masturbate to them.

He has been diagnosed by the Institute of Mental Health with hebephilia - a sexual preference for early adolescent children generally aged 11 to 14.

Someone said a paedophile preys on children regardless of gender. This guy preys on boys only, so he isn't a true paedophile? Or paedophiles are divided between gay and str8 too?? So confusing...

Paedophiles prey on younger children if I am not wrong, as in pre-teens.

But sadly, these people are attracted to children just like we are attracted to guys. Their fetish for children are like our fetish for certain things. Too bad what they are attracted to are really forbidden fruits.

It saddens me to see some very hurting comments above. Do those guests who condemn the criminal and wish something bad happen to him in jail know that the homophobic straights think the same way of us and wish that we will all be punished in hell too?

He is already paying for his wrongdoings, 24 strokes of cane is not a joke, why still rub salt on his wounds?

Have you guys done no wrong before?

Note: I am not speaking up for paedophiles, just feel that we should all be more empathetic and choose our words with care. Peace.

30 years jail is like Capital punishment.  He should be send for mental checkup before they made judgement. Some people tend to think with their dick than their head. He probably has some form of mental "lack". When he comes out, he should be 60 plus years.  Too harsh on him.

Why should the moderator lock this thread?

 

This serve as a very good warning to those who prey on boys.

 

As a moderator here in BW, I had issued warnings to a few members who had posted ads in the Personal folder looking for boys.

 

Our forum is strongly against pedophiles / hebephile or anyone who target innocent boys.

 

We will not hesitate to ban or remove anyone whom are caught.

He might be reviewed for remission considering the length of his sentence.

 

But 20 years is still.. oh well. You reap what you sow.

This serves as a reminder to anyone of us who cross-path with teenagers in our daily lives.

As I am in the education industry, I am constantly in the company of 13-18 year old students daily.

Let me tell you, some of them are quite hunky.

 

Fortunately for me, forum readers would know my preference.

I prefer the company of older Ang-mo...

 

To those who like them raw and young, please don't do it....

Not against using it as a reminder for all of us here, but at least also remind some of the guests to control their words lah.

What a painful lesson

And future all gone

Not only he hurts himself

Victims and his love ones too

His family members must be devastated

Yes, he lost everything at his prime.

And his parents will surely be very heartbroken. Each stroke of cane that he will be receiving on his butt will inflict pain in their hearts.

It is really not worth sacrificing everything for the sake of sexcitement.

Those of you who are facing similar problem, pls do whatever you can to leave the underage ones alone.

You can JO to drain away your excessive sexual energy, avoid pxxn with underage in them, seek professional help etc.

He will probably go through counseling for this life behind bars and later see how he can put his skills he has learnt as an engineer to good use inside as some vocation trainer or tutor for studies. Such a pity and the price to pay for preying on teens. Why can't he go for older ones of legal age about 20s and up?

Yes, nowadays they make sure the prisoners also contribute to society even when behind bars, which is a good initiative. They will have chances to pick up skills and furthur their studies too.

But all these will only be possible for him if he can go through the caning and the unimaginable stuff that other inmates may do to him.

Like I have pointed out before, this is like a fetish, it is not up to him to decide his fetish. Just that his fetish is a strictly forbidden one and he did not keep it under control.

Sadly, Yap had been a victim of sexual abuse when he was involved in a sexual relationship with his male Math teacher when he was only 12. This teacher should've known better than to do such a thing to a child. I wonder if the teacher ever got convicted...

You know him personally and he told you that?

It is over now, he will get the punishment. Thus, for all of us, try to be a responsible adult by feeding the teens with knowledge so that they will be a better person. Not feeding them with our 'sausage or burger'.

Yes. So far no hooking up with teens for me. Even for those in their early 20s, I will always advice them to play safe and cherish their health and youth.

u mean those playing grindr ? meeting  strangers for sex?Dont u think going to sauna is safer at least they are 18 above screen by counter staff.

Sigh! If you ever encountered one. No need to go for extra miles till cause you a trouble.

If you are afraid of lion but still want to see them really close, don't go inside the jungle, you can visit Singapore Zoo.
