KUALA LUMPUR: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who has temporarily taken over the Education Ministry portfolio, says he is not bothered about the colour of shoes worn to school.

The Prime Minister said that the briefing he was given by Education Ministry officials on Thursday (Jan 16) had left him "a little confused".

"I had a long briefing. I am still digesting the items that they had briefed me and I am still a little bit confused because of so many facts given. I am studying them.

"One thing I have decided is that you can wear brown shoes, black shoes, grey shoes, white shoes – any shoes will do," said Dr Mahathir on Friday (Jan 17).

Former education minister Dr Maszlee Malik had introduced the controversial black-shoe policy.

Let the colour be an individual expression. Let's end irrelevant delusional herd mentality of the past millenium

Yes. Teach them how to make good decision for life, and we don't see rising unemployment rate in the near future

This should be flexible too. Kids can come and learn and go as an individual (as consented by parents, of course)

Still need more and more and endless study??? : Man's talk - STRAIGHT TO THE POINT

When the people choose NAJIB's party over pH, something must be very, very damned wrong. They would rather swim in a pool of poop than to be belittled with the rubbish that Mhathir and his bodoh sombong gang are throwing at them. The PM's arrogance has reached breaking point and pH's supporters ARE FED UP.

True. It's not the quantity of time for structure learning....

.....but the quality of the texts and teachers (and VCs)

Only Rukun Negara should be recited on regular basis in school assembly.

Only scientific thinking, moral principles and lawful awareness have to be 'installed' (like computer softwares), taught and cultivated in schools during formal schooing hours.

Others oughta be chucked to 'after school' activities

3 major upsets of Malaysian education system :
1) Students disciplines gone.
2) Teachers qualities gone.
3) Too many religious schools
