Incompetence jaguh kampong still living under the coconut shell. Why do they need to learn science in english when they can invent miracle drugs from bamboo stick with 2 coconuts sitting on a magic carpet.

Now during this global pandemic, try to communicate scientifically on this virus and the symptoms in BM instead of English to WHO and the rest of the world? Perhaps DBP can use the free Google translate to submit their reports for WHO!

Too late now. No hope of bringing back English to our schools. Our present teachers themselves could not converse or write proper English, and how on earth can they teach the subjects in English? The old timers who could are all retired and are mostly in their seventies. Even if offered to teach the subjects as contract teachers, I doubt they want to come back.

Posted by Wishmasters > 2020-07-22 12:07 | Report Abuse

The failure is because of the serious lack of teachers who are proficient in the English language to teach the 2 subjects in English.

Even teachers selected to teach the English language are mostly of sub-standard quality. Hence, the teaching of English in BM.

Another one of those “return from the dead” survivors. He was director of DBP from 2012-2016 but I don’t recall him ever saying anything then. Suddenly, after being reappointed, he is full of ideas and opinion. And since when has the National Librarian has a say about teaching math and science in English? He should focus on cataloguing and making books more accessible throughout the country by building council libraries and encouraging more reading.

The best solution is don't teach English anymore. Just teach all subjects in BM. There should be no more science and maths from primary to end of secondary. Then we will be able to see real improvement.

"All researches showed that PPSMI failed to meet its objective to increase the students' English proficiency skill as well as their performance in Science and Mathematics subjects"

All the bumi tongkats also have failed (according to Malay politicians) to improve the malays. So based on your reasoning, will you stop those tongkats too?

Yup...quite evident it failed... especially maths ....when we have ministers who miscount the number of countries in the world upto 500 and miscalculate 97% of 32 ministers is 5...

The teachers who teach science and maths in English are themselves only conversant in BM and the students themselves come through the BM medium. So naturally it is a failure. Dr. Mahathir nationalised Education to BM in early years but suddenly woke up when Malay students were poor in science and maths;hence brought in English. But the back ground is all in BM. So best method is teaching dual languages from primary schools with English for science, maths,law and economics and BM for all other subjects if we want our children to face the world competitively.Otherwise we will continue to produce ignoramus in science and maths but the rich will send their children to international schools for better education. Only the poor Malays will be impacted. This was and is the concern of Dr Mahathir.

The program failed not because the program is not good. Everywhere else in the world particularly in developed countries, STEM subjects are taught in English because the terminoloiges are all in English. Just look at Singapore. The program in Malaysia failed because of the teachers' attitude. Don't blame it on the program, blame in on the teachers. And don't just blame language for polarization, please. There are much bigger issues, often polarization are deliberately played up by UMNO and PAS politicians.

"Their performances in international exams in regard to Science and Mathematics significantly dropped after the implementation of PPSMI," he said.

May I ask which exam is he referring to? International exams are in English. If our performance dropped, why blame it on PPSMI. He should blame it on the quality of teachers, students and their mastery of the language. The results would have been bad or worse if the students were taught in Malay only.

Too little too late..our education system has only one way to go..down. Government can pour another 10 billions in but still it cannot fight the rot at the foundation. The strong foundation of the 80s were weaken under the pressure of race and religion. Now we can just in horror as they churn out thousands and thousands of badly educated youth.

DBP Awang Sariyan, smart alec and PBC. Six months ago if you dare openly say Teaching of Mathematics and Science in English (PPSMI) is a failure, you’d be out of job!
FYI, PPSMI is the way forward. The only failure in this case, are those ’ketuanan’ who are non confident with inferiority complexes.
Keep delaying PPSMI, we will have more youths tomorrow with calibre like the Flying car minister or just Jaguh kampong.

Because your grounding of the language was a big ZERO.
THE SCIENCE AND MATHS NOW AS TAUGHT BY BELOW PAR TEACHERS WILL NOT BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR ANY LOW GRADE INSTITUTION IN THE WORLD.
Students have to get tutoring from GOOD maths & science teachers in English outside school hours.
The education system is an abject failure. Everyone knows it but no Parliamentarian has the GUTS to be its saviour
Just check where we stand when compared to other countries. A great disservice has been done to future generations in the name of the three Rs.
And you have the gall to talk about ‘failure’ you mutton head.

Posted by Wishmasters > 2020-07-22 12:17 | Report Abuse

It begs the question...why was it "a failure"?
Perhaps "taught" by non-proficient teachers? ignorant in both English and Maths...i.e. if you don't know the language, and/or can't do the math to begin with, you can't teach it, hence you propagate and perpetuate the ignorance level, and it gets worse with each new generation.
I suspect that's where the problem is...the once competent post colonial education system dragged down by 60 years of ketuanan BN/UMNO, and not improved under PH (laughs). Just look at the education ministers we've had. Maybe Bunk Moktar could be the next in the queue.
Perhaps a renewed emphasis on khat will improve things.

Posted by Wishmasters > 2020-07-22 12:17 | Report Abuse

It's a foregone conclusion. That's why when PPSMI was implemented ~17 years ago, it was only implemented in national schools, but not Chinese schools because the SJKC/T knew that learning Maths and Science is about maths and science, nothing to do with language.

Al Jazeera filmed controversial documentary without license, Finas confirms

PETALING JAYA: The National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (Finas) has confirmed that Al Jazeera had filmed the Locked Up in Malaysia’s Lockdown documentary without a licence.

In a statement issued today, Finas’ corporate communications unit also noted that the international news agency lacked any certificate to give them filming rights in the country.

It said this was based on initial investigations, after the documentary courted controversy for its report accusing the government of discriminatory treatment of illegal immigrants during the movement control order (MCO).
