I am asking those Malays to answer me on this simple question...
- Which is bigger, 1Malaysia or the Earth?
No doubt Bahasa Malaysia is considered Bahasa Kebangsaan for this country but English is a global language used around the world.
- Why must we punish the young generation for the sake of self-political interest?.
- Why can't we give them option to be what they want to be?
I'm sharing with you a view from 18 year old student hoping that those stupid Malays can start cracking their head in making their brain-drain full and work again. But I'm pretty sure, their brain will not work anymore. In fact, I'm not sure whether they could read this or not. Just look at their party's name. They forget that the name of their beloved party is also in BAHASA PENJAJAH..... and yet they are talking about bahasa kebangsaan.
I REFER to “Hard to switch from English to Malay” (The Star, Feb 11, 2011). I understand the confusion that is going through the mind of the 11-year-old writer, who foresees the difficulties she and her friends will face.
Such young children should not be subjected to any emotional turmoil at this age.
I am 18 years old and waiting for my SPM results. In primary school and kindergarten I studied science and maths in Bahasa Melayu. In Form 1, the teaching of science and maths was switched to English.
Learning maths and science in English in Forms 4 and 5 will provide the perfect foundation for higher education in science and commerce-related courses which will be in that language.
Having to deal with translations will further burden the student who takes such subjects such as finite mathematics, statistics, advanced calculus, engineering maths applications and advanced physics, chemistry and biology.
The decision by the Education Minister to abolish the teaching of science and math in English is not fair to students who have progressed and want to continue to progress.
Bring back English as an option. In the end, it will not only benefit the student but also the nation as a whole.
