\u201cHas he done it to other workers before?\u201d is the question being asked by gender rights advocate Alexandrina Wong after hearing that a senior manager at the V.C. Bird International Airport allegedly sexually harassed at least one female member of his staff some weeks before.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Members of staff, in an act of solidarity, staged strike action Tuesday morning leading to the eventual suspension of the senior airport manager.<\/p>\n

Wong, President of Women Against Rape (WAR), says that, \u201cI am happy that there was intervention at a higher level.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cI am pleased that the employees responded the way they did.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cAm I happy that we disrupt the services that we give at the airport? No, I am not happy,\u201d continues Wong, \u201cbut if that is what it takes for a person who feels that male privilege should reign supreme needs to put a stop to his actions, then that is what it has to be.\u201d<\/p>\n

The president agrees with the idea of \u2018counseling\u2019 as a \u201cvery good form of intervention.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cThat senior male will have to continue with the counseling so that his behavior can be modified.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI happy that they took that course of counseling,\u201d commends Wong.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

\u201cBecause, what we have seen happen in the past is that sometimes the perpetrator is moved to another location. But when he goes to the other location he does the same thing to somebody or to other persons.\u201d<\/p>
