If they’d spent more time revising their studies instead of thinking of ways to sue the gomen…
We should be proud of our national language, but we should also be realistic. [insert all the reasons why Science and Maths should be taught in English if our people wish to pursue their education in these two languages in other countries who... let me see... publish their texts and research results in ENGLISH]
Kids these days… I tell you… kurang ajar betul.

i learn my science and mathematics in MANDARIN, look how far I’ve come? I’ll say we do it in Mandarin!
ridiculous.
i doubt they’re the real ones who want to sue anyway. puppets.
you have damn fast readers and damn fast commentors
Sikit-sikit nak sue. The parents ah…sigh. The thing about them is, they leave the responsibility of teaching their kids to the government but when something don’t go their way, they blame them. Dahlah no time to spend with their kids, wanna blame others pulak. Ridiculous.
They will thank the government for having the 2 subjects in English. At least bila masuk college, they won’t be lost.
Oh my god are we turning into AMERICA?
bloody hell, i agree the kids are just puppets. the real idiots pursuing the matter are the fathers.
imagine all the shame those kids are going through while their egoistic dads fight a losing battle.
they should sue the politicians who last revered the teaching media from English to Malay. they are the culprits who breed those 4 idiots and many more
Teach it in ancient Greek and Latin like the good old days! Like Aristotle did when I was a lad … um … er … ah … I think I’m old …
its the parents i tell u! Parents!
Really ridiculous we may feel, some people must look beyond language as a true determinant of who we are. Speaking english doesn’t make one less malay or less malaysian.
it’s te bloody adults who wish to use the courts to pursue what’s claerly a “issue”n to be dealt with in the politicall realm.
THat’s what’s the core problem wit the Malaysian system — highly racialised and politicised, and no solutions in sight because there is no sincere, visionary leadership in the present team.
For the future, pray very hard there will be less such “adults” among us pushing their children into their adult battles!
Suanie:
that’s why KURANG AJAR mah..
ahh but who are controlling teh fathers?
aiseh man….itupun nak sue ker??
one questions is… who instigated them to such action? sure got kera di sebalik pokok one
Suanie:
It wasn’t me
Surely you found this on SpyMy, you should credit the source
Suanie:
Surely I did not. And I did credit the source. Bleh.
Jokers… nuff said.
jokers sounds so mild, as compared to what i had in mind.
Those students are merely pursuing the political agenda of “their parents”?
Suanie, probably their England is powderful ma, you offer to provide them England tutoring service lor, drop the court case and request them to pay you whatever lawyer fees spent.
Don’t you think that this is a win-win solution for you and the gov.?
I wonder why I failed every Add Maths classes in school, then proceed to getting A in every test and finals in college.
Hmm.
wonder y their classmates can pass the exams..
I always thought this kind of “anything-also-can-sue” thing only happens in America. Malaysia also have ah? Not bad.
