English For Science and Maths

Years ago, while I was still in high school and college, i kept on reading about how Malaysians' English has gone downhill, and parents and teachers calling out to the government to do something to save us from such situation.

Thus, now, Science and Maths are taught in English, apart from the English subject itself.

And there are complaints, and now calls to abolish such act.

Eventually, when we look into this matter, it is the implementation problem instead of the idea behind it. We should have started from Standard One instead of both Standard One and Form One. But looking back into it, students in Form One had learn English since kindergarten, so there should not be any excuse not to be able to cope with English for Science and Mathematics. Students should be able to know what add, subtract, multiply and divide mean by the age of 13.

So if they can't differentiate these words at the age of 13, whose fault is it?

Government? Parents? Teachers?

Let us all be mature enough to think about the root of the problem instead of going on street to demonstrate and blah blah blah.

I always believe, when a problem arise, rectify it. Not create more problem on top of it.

Remarkable Malaysia - Mollywood

We have Hollywood in US and Bollywood in India. N hey, Malaysia should have our own Mollywood.

Come on. If you guyz think that US Presidential Election is great, our Malaysia political scene is of Hollywood Best Motion Picture standard. It is crazily dramatic.

Who would expect within a week, an UMNO rep would quit and then rejoin UMNO? And who would expect that BN has regain Perak state with one rep majority over PR?

It is so highly dramatic that I couldn't believe it.

We are certainly there if we are to set up Mollywood to cater our politicians. It is just like Lord of The Rings.
