Is Our Education Policy Okay?



My answer is "NOT OKAY".

It's time that government trusts the wisdom and wishes of the public. The feedback from the public is equally important as the "experts" from the government. Both sides must work in mutual respect and of partnership spirit by bringing out the best education recipe for the country.

The government owes us an explanation why our kids have to study so many subjects unnecessarily, especially on the BM which has been set to such an incredibly (difficult) level that is far ahead of their age. The degree of Difficulty and their age are simply not compatible.

Learning is a slow process, it should progress in appropriate steps over times; we should not be rushed into unfair situation by "overloading" and "rushing" which causes both the kids and their parents stresses and sufferings.

Haven't you seen parents and children struggle with the running around all days (and nights) in order to meet the challenges set by the authority?

What are they (Education Department or the Minister of Education) trying to prove from these kids?

Our new PM should really look into this matter seriously and revamp it immediately as the majority silence does not mean condoning the wrongs of the minority.

As I'm also a "Victim" of the mistake of the Education System; I'd like to appeal to all the parents in Malaysia to stand up against the ludicrous education mistakes and rally behind this movement for educational change (or reformation) for the goods of the country.

We must get rid of "get there fast" mentality and naivety as there’s no short cut in education.

High fire only burns the rice instead of cooking it.
