Maths and Science...

The Education Ministry announced yesterday that the teaching of Maths and Science will revert to BM and mother tongue languages in 2012...i was shocked when this news was announced and it was a very unexpected decision...i never thought the Ministry will make up this decision ever since they introduced teaching of Maths and Science in English...i feel that they have made a mistake by reverting to BM...i feel myself is so lucky because i got the chance to learn them in English and at the same time pity those students who are not going to study them in English...it might be a lost to them if they can't study them in English...even though i only started learning the both subjects in English since secondary 1, i think there is no problem at all studying them in international language...when i was in secondary 1, i thought it will be very tough to study them in English, instead i found it even easier compared to BM especially the scientific terms...most scientific terms are converted from English to BM..that's why i find it easier when it comes to the terms and explaining them...last time, the education ministry introduced this so the students can be more competitive with the foreign counterparts but now i don't think the goal can be achieved with this decision...i am not saying that BM and other local languages are not important but they are not that suitable when teaching of Maths and Science are concerned...although the education ministry also announced that more efforts will be taken to improve English among students, i just think that it has nothing to do with this case..English has to be improved whether both subjects are going to be taught in English or BM...the English standard in Malaysia is so low that i as a college student can't even write in proper English...i admit that..my English sucks...i know there are quite a number of them who are good in English but the number is just too little...wait a minute..am i saying that most of them are not good?..i 'm sorry if i ever offended you and i can't judge you all because i'm also one of them...no matter the future generation is going to learn them in whatever languages, i hope they can make it and succeed in their lives...just hope they has not made a wrong decision...2020 is arriving...
