Betrayer of Malaysian Education System

As what we have experienced since the implementation of PPSMI in 2003, it had been a burning topic among the publics from all walks of life. Always, we can hear sound of objection as well as disagreement from certain of body or groups in the society. " By using English as the language in the subject of Science of Mathematics, the mother tongue language of Malays as well as Chinese will be neglected and facing tremendous destruction by days and days... ", this is what they thought that was the truth.

I'm sorry to say that they are deliberately relating the education to the other unrelated polemic, and of course i beg to differ. Just like all Malaysian who raise an eyebrown since last 2 weeks, i myself was taken aback and found it hard to accept the stupid decision made by the new government as specifically our 'honourable' new education minister Mr Muhyiddin. How can the government change their mind just after 6 years of implementation of this significantly vital decison. By right we shouldn't make speculation that the PPSMI is a failure in 6 years of time since the education sector was a long term investment and process. I don't understand why the executive forces can lose heart although so much of effords had been put inside. Dozen of million ringgit was thrown in order for the project to be effectively carried out but the it was let to be end in smoke just like that when the cabinet say a "tukar" in the air-conditioned meeting room. Did they ever think about the circumstances beyond this decision??

Pityful students will be the one who suffer and sacrifice under the new policy. It may be a plain sailing incident for all those who make decison. But all the students will be needed to suit themselves in the new academic environment, besides cope with study of Science and Mathematics in Malays language. Vernacular school students, using Chinese language from standard 1-6, switch to Bahasa Malaysia when getting into secondary school, but change back to English when enter tertiary study... Did you all thought that we are transformer?? How can students adopt themselves in such kind of education system despite of their race, livelihood and culture.

Futhermore, English in Science and Mathematics was obviously important. What i mean was not improving students' English language through this policy, but the matter of connection between field of science in Malaysia to the worldwide Science arena instead. English, was the universal language of Science and it doesn't make sense for Malaysia to be isolated by using BM in this field, what's more ironic was that we are actually translate English scientific term into BM by using one or two letter, just like 'sperm' to 'sperma', and 'photosynthesis' to 'fotosinthesis', and claimed loudly to the world that we are study Science using our own language. It seem like we were make a fool of ourselves.

I felt sorry for pouring cold water on this policy, although i knew that nobody wil care about my piece of mind. However, I believed that most, if not all of the Malaysian stand beside me.English in Science and Mathematics was not only vital, but fundamentally a necessary in our country. This can be proved by the polls held by former Prime Minister Tun Mahathir's blog. 86% of voters were found against the government decision. Why don't we try our best to enthusiastically improve our study of science in english? Why don't we ride over the storm together despite of facing any problems? Remember, it's not only for our own good, but the rights of our young generation to obtain the best. What do u think??
