Review teaching of English in schools: DPM
SEGAMAT: Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has ordered the English Language Curriculum Division to have a relook at the learning of the language in schools to ensure students can master it as a second language.
Muhyiddin, who is also Education Minister, said he had directed Education director-general Datuk Abdul Ghafar Mahmud to carry out a review on the learning of English Language in school.
"How the national education system involving 13 years, with five years of secondary school, is still unable to provide our students with a good grasp of the English Language, I, myself, am incapable of answering," he said in his speech during a visit to SMK Felda Maokil, Labis here today.
Muhyiddin said the review might determine if the weakness was due to a shortage of English Language teachers, equipment or due to other causes.
He said mastery of the English Language was important because it was the main language in international communication and the economy.
He also rejected the perception that implementing the 'Uphold Bahasa Melayu, Strengthen the English Language' policy had resulted in the Education Ministry neglecting the English Language.
Muhyiddin also said the ministry had carried out a comprehensive survey of the nation's educational infrastructure, in its effort to provide the infrastructural need of schools.
He said, although his ministry had received a development allocation of between RM5 billion and RM6 billion, the amount was not enough because of the large number of schools in the country and the rapid population growth which required the constructions of new schools. -- Bernama
No need to review. Just do it like before where there is an English medium.
The new policy is stupid because the lingua franca is still the English language.
If you want the students to remain stupid, then Muhyiddin should definitely continue with the current policy which had replaced PPSMI.
Just because you are stupid, does not mean that the rest of us has to be stupid like you too!
Continue with the PPSMI and bring back the English medium school.
I am sure that the racists kiasu love to see the Malays be stupid and will support this stupid move.
dulu tun tak setuju, mika buat jugak
ReplyDeleteWake Up;
ReplyDeleteNo need English Medium. Just asked the student to play sport everyday. More times outdoor. Otherwise, for what the billions Muhyiddin have spent for the 1 student 1 sport? I really frustrated to see todays teacher are more on sports rather than academics. I feel cheated when back from school, my kids said, "hari ni tak belajar, ada sukan". Zaman aku dulu hanya hari sukantara dan hari sukan sahaja yang benar-benar tak belajar. Please check, berapa banyak Muhyiddin buat untung from 1 murid 1 sukan!!!
Come on dude! what the hell his thinking? this is so necessary, a minimum requirement for most job in this day except for industrials/general worker.

ReplyDeleteBro TENGGARA is SOUTHEAST. Tak berkaitan pun. Semuanya atas pengurusan masa. Anak sedara aku wakil sukan renang lagi di Selangor, takdak pula jadi halangan dia mencapai keputusan cemerlang dalam SPM.
Ikutlah resam orang Cina. Jangan biar anak-anak merempit. Biar dok kat rumah belajar atau pegi tuisyen atau bersukan dari merempit! Time management bro. Kena biar budak penat sampai takde masa buat kerja bukan-bukan.
Bro/Sis Anon 3:41 AM. Stupid people can't see other people be cleverer than them. They want people to be stupider than them.

Bro/Sis Anon 12:21 PM. You are the one who are an imbecile for thinking that everyone else is as stupid as you to the extent that you want to deny that there are Christian missionaries trying to change the Malay Muslims to be Christians. Hey! We are not that stupid!!!
