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.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
