PPSMI is abolised! I feel happy!
Oh yeah, the ridiculous PPSMI policy (abbreviation of “Teaching of Science and Mathematics in English”) is finally abolished. The only catch is that it will only be discontinued in 2012….but I guess that is nothing compared to the destruction that this policy could do if it remains in force.
I am overjoyed (and that is probably an understatement) at the news. It doesn’t mean that I will support BN because of this, but finally someone up there got some sense knocked into his head. I have always maintained in the past and until today that to improve one’s command of English, the only way to do so is to encourage reading and a mass overhaul of that dreadful English syllabus that I went through in KBSR and KBSM.
Anyway, to celebrate this momentous occassion, I am off to do the moonwalk. Watch me!
