What I think is involved in making a fair judgement about a person or situation

Making a fair judment about a person
In order to make a fair judgement about a person, we need to observe the person's acts and deeds, and his or her behaviour. We also need to interact with the person over a prolonged period of time, and observe how the person treats others. More importantly, we can make a fair judgement of  person's character particarly in times of need, whether or not he or she rises to the occasion and helps others. There are many people whose appearances are deceiving, and do not seem like what they actually are. We cannot judge a person fairly just by his background, for instance, a smart person may not be a well-liked person, due to his or her behaviour. Also, judging a person based on his or her looks, mannerism, and tone, may not be entirely fair as well. One may look ugly, speak in a gruff, harsh tone, and yet be a kind hearted person who is well-liked. Interacting with the person will allow us to understand more about him or her, and we can have a fairer judgement of the person. Some examples include the Hwa Chong scholarship holder, Jonathan Wong, who did well in school and received a scholarship from the Ministry of Education (MOE). He was a smart and brilliant student, however he was caught with the possesion of pornographic material, which shows his character was bad. Even though he was a smart person, this did not mean that what he did was morally upright.

Making a fair judgement about a situation
To make a fair judgement about a certain situation, we must first allow it to undergo analysis and observe what is happening. We need to understand the people in it (if any), the location (if any), the time, etc. Basically, we need to note down all the descriptions about this particular situation. This is important, as understanding the situation will allow us to have a clearer view of what is going on, allowing us to make a fair judgement. After we know basically what is going on in the situation, we can first make an inference. We will then observe the situation yet again to see if this inference was true. If evidence if found, we can then proceed in making the judgement and supporting our views with the evidence that we have collated. We cannot just base the judgement about the situation solely on who and where it is going on, as we have to understand everything about it before making our judgement. If not, the judgement will not be fair, either biased towards one's preferences or unfair due to a majority of people not believing that this is true.
