KUALA LUMPUR : A Malaysian
National University of Singapore (NUS) law scholarship holder has stirred up
controversy after he posted photographs and videos of his girlfriend — also
from Malaysia — and him having sex, on his blog, which he has been forced to
remove after it went viral in recent days.
Alvin Tan Jye Yee told
Yahoo! Singapore that he had taken down his joint sex blog with his girlfriend
“because there’s been too much trouble for this and we want to stay out of
trouble”.
The NUS student said erotic
photos and videos of himself and his girlfriend going viral was “exciting”,
according to Yahoo! Singapore.
On the site “Sumptuous
Erotica“, Tan and his girlfriend Vivian Lee said they loved posting details of
their sex life on the web “for everyone to enjoy” and that they uploaded only
self-made content.

According to Singapore’s
Straits Times, Tan went to Singapore on an Asean scholarship in 2004 and
attended Xinmin Secondary School and Raffles Junior College.
The newspaper said he went
on to NUS on an Asean undergraduate scholarship and took a leave of absence
last year to start his own firm.
He told the Straits Times
that he aims to return to NUS in January to finish his studies.
Tan began posting the photos
and videos of himself and his girlfriend, a 23-year-old Malaysian whom he got
to know through Facebook, on his private blog last month.
On Sunday, he posted the
blog’s address on the popular HardwareZone forum, the Straits Times reported.
“It exploded from there. The
last I checked, we had about 20,000 page views when previously we had only
about 1,000,” he said.
“What can (NUS) do?
Terminate my scholarship or expel me? I can’t say I will be fine with it, but
if it happens, I can accept it. I’ve started my company and I have my own
savings,” he added.
In an interview with Yahoo!
Singapore this morning, Tan talked about why he started the blog and about
facing the consequences of his postings.
“One fine day, we were just
fooling around and my girlfriend had the idea of taking nude photos, just
taking them, not necessarily uploading them. With more and more photos that we
took, we started to want some sort of recognition for our work so we started
uploading them on FB but we blurred out the critical parts,” he said.
As the photos kept on
getting flagged and being taken down, he said they started the blog at the end
of September this year.
He and his girlfriend have
even been approached by companies in Singapore to endorse sex toys and
lingerie, he disclosed.
