A Hong Kong school trip to Singapore has become an unexpected talking point back home after a video of a principal losing his temper went viral.<\/p>\n

The incident saw Lee Cheuk-hing of San Wui Commercial Society Secondary School in Tuen Mun, in Hong Kong\u2019s New Territories, take part in a heated exchange<\/span> with security personnel outside a venue in the city state over coach parking arrangements.<\/div>\n

In full view of students and colleagues, an agitated Lee used several ill-chosen \u2013 some would say vulgar \u2013 Cantonese expressions and even pulled faces at two non-Chinese security guards.<\/p>\n

The footage spread quickly across Hong Kong\u2019s social media, drawing attention less to the dispute itself than to the manner in which it unfolded.<\/p>\n
