Do u think the education department does a right choice?

Question

In malaysia, all chinese primary schools have two types of version (English and chinese) for science and maths. while other type of school such as the malay and international primary schools have only one type of version (English) for both science and maths. and i think it is good that all types of schools have maths in english version. but since last few months, i heard that the education department MAYBE wants to change something that maybe on 2011 or 2012, all chinese primary schools will only have one type of version (chinese) for both maths and science and malay schools will only have the same thing too. they will be using malay for their maths and science. i think it is ridiculous! english is the international language and also the mother tongue for this world. the department wants to change it because of some lame people's complained that the schoolworks are too much (complain from the chinese school students' parents) and "killing" their malay language by only using english version in the maths and science (from the malay school students' parents). i hope the department doesnt ever decide to change the system. what do u think?

The Malaysian Education Department can never ever decide...if and when they do, they would change the decision made, again and again and yet again...just like they have nothing new to do ...lols~
All they are doing is make the students confused, lost and not being able to catch up. 
Another thing that they should think about is to NOT just rely on outdated textbooks!!
Teachers teach, students learn...if the teacher is outdated, students are backward and maybe narrow-minded too....think about it~
So, NO, the Education Ministry never makes a right choice...outdated and going round and round in circles...where is the advancement?

I blame the narrow-minded parents and i completely agree with wishnuwelltoo. They should teach in English at school while whichever language they prefer at home. English is very important.

I think they should teach the classes in English.  In America, we teach English at the schools, and the children speak Spanish at home, or whatever language they speak, and the language does not die out.
