One school one nation & One United
Lately we see numerous opinions on whether the country should adopt a single school system or not. Well, firstly I would say I am siding Prof. Khoo Kay Kim’s opinion/suggestion as I think it is the way to go. We need to take the first step to create a Malaysian race. When schools use the same common language as medium of teaching….. we will have everyone able to communicate with each other across the board. Usually people will group with people who speak the same language.
We just gotta abolish vernacular school and introduce single national school to create a new generation of people who dont speak broken Bahasa Malaysia anymore…… even some foreigners can speak better BM than some Malaysians. I would suggest that Mandarin and Tamil should also be made compulsory language along with English. Hence we will create a nation that can speak 4 languages…… no matter you are chinese. malay, indian or others.
Ha… what about that? Call me a traitor if you like but I strongly agree with Prof. Khoo !!!!!! I would stress that all Malaysians MUST read this.
I blogged about the same topic last night! Agree!!
Many people including myself….. sometime get offended when someone mistook us for being of another race than who we are….. eg. some chinese are dark and look like malay.. and when peole talk to you in BM you get offended… now you get what i mean… save the incident when i was eating in a mamak during one fasting month and was asked to produce my IC. you know how shitty was that.
Something have to start somewhere….. so in the initial state, there will oof course be some hiccups…. but hopefully I will be able to live long enough to see the generations to come that are not distinguished by race and all speak a common language, Bahasa Malaysia. Just like the indonesians and thais… they all speak the same common language fluently and als speak their mother tongue at home.
