History to be a compulsory subject for SPM Exams

The Malaysia Minister of Education announced that History will be made a compulsory subject in the SPM Exams in 2013.
The education minister said this is to increase the awareness of nation building efforts and therefore producing younger generations who are more patriotic. This is a load of craps.
The real reason is to brain wash the youth into believing that Malaysia is built by a single race, the contributions of other races towards building our nation will be denied by replacing facts with lies in history text books. Recently there were many instances where some politicians publicly denying the existence of famous historical Chinese leaders who helped to develop our country, for example Yap Ah Loy. Now they want to go one step further, they want our children to memorize these lies as facts. Or else they will flop their whole examination, not only failing a subject only. Do you see the power of this move?
It is sad that certain Chinese scholars are also involved in this falsifying of history for personal gains and glory. Their names will go down in history as betrayers of their own ethnic group.
Does the education minister realize that not every child love history, regardless of their intelligent levels.Those who excel in science or engineering subjects may not like to memorize dates,names,places and events. They like to memorize formula or theorem instead. Likewise, even some arts stream students also do not like history.  Are we going to shut the doors of the universities to these intelligent students? How are we going to achieve our vision of a developed nation in 2020 without the help of these potential technocrats?

Happy Birthday,Malaysia!

MERDEKA!

Our nation celebrates its 53rd birthday today.
Let's work together to face new challenges in the era of "Globalization".
Discard the out-dated ideology based on racialism and religion fanaticism.

The way to go : FORWARDS.

The A-G dropped a bombshell in the Chinese community

The Attorney General charged the former president of The Malaysian Chinese Association (MCA) for 16 years,Tun Dr. Ling Liong Sik, with 2 counts of cheating in relation to the KFTZ scandal.

Many Chinese are stunned by the News because it is just unbelievable that their leader will be charged. It shamed all Chinese.

On the other hand,it is a clear message to those who are in power, no one is above the law. The long arms of the law will reach you sooner or later.

It is crytal clear, why puzzle?

Prior to 2 by-elections all sorts of efforts were applied to ensure a victory for BN just for ego sake.Particular attentions were given to win the Chinese voters like approval of special funds for Chinese medium primary schools. Applications for renovations,maintenance,extensions, building of additional class rooms,etc,etc which had been pending for over 10, or 20 years were approved within weeks.Facility in the villages were suddenly improved.For example, an application to build an iron bridge which has been pending for years was speedily approved.
The government has done all there is to be done to win the Chinese votes,but why didn't they reciprocate. why? why? why?...
The answer is very simple,as clear as the crystal.
By doing so much for the people,especially the Chinese community, in such a short span of time, the government has aroused the resentment of the Chinese community. It was interpreted by the Chinese as they had in the past been kept waiting unnecessarily for the approval to various pressing needs not because there was a valid reason for the delay but because somebody up there was trying to show his authority or simply because of discrimination. They asked,"If it can be approved within weeks, why are we kept waiting for 20 years?"
The voters are smarter now,you know.

Still got people refuse to accept IT nowadays?

What happened at SJK(C)Desa,Kepong really sadden me. There are still people who refuse to embrace new technology such as information technology(IT).

A handful of parents went all out to stop computer classes to be taught in the school against the will of the majority of the parents, against the will of most of the parents of surrounding schools in the area for that matter.

So much so they brought it to the court,citing it was against the education law to conduct computer classes during regular teaching hours because computer classes are not considered core subject. What, computer is not important? Why the government build the MSC and brags so much about it then? Is it just hot air?

This group of parents also claims it is harmful to let children to learn IT at early age, citing a research done by the Comsumer Association of Penang (CAP) which shows they will suffer brain damage,lack of execises and poor health as a result of exposing them to computers usage at early age. What loadful of craps. Of course, too much of any thing is bad. Even you eat too much or sleep too much is bad. One should have the wisdom to exercise control over any thing you do to avoid indulgence.

Who is CAP anyway, they are just another association out of thousands of association out there. What make them so full of authority? Must we listen to every word they say?

How are we going to achieve the 2020 vision if we are lagging behind in technology? How would we dare to crawl out of our own shells and step into the global village if we are not properly equipped?

Don't drag everybody down because of your personal differences. If you are so righteous and full of justice, go find something else to fix. There are so many things not right in our country, surely you can find something to prove how smart and righteous you are, just leave the children's future alone.

Church burners are narrow minded people

I am sad to read about 4 churches in the Klang Valley area were arsoned in one day. Except for one at Melawati, the damage to property is not severe and no one is hurt. But the heart of every Malaysian is deeply hurt.
Those who did it must be coming from a place called "The Narrow-minded Street"!
