Government has announced that mathematics and science in primary school has to teach in English. After this announcement, there have many different responses from different race. Some are agree with it and some still try to reverse it to original way to teach mathematics and science. Within these 7 years after the announcement, there still have argument between government and public. So, is that good to teach mathematics and science in English at the primary level?
If teach mathematics and science in English can help pupils to cope the syllabus in the secondary school because secondary school also use English to teach mathematics and science. Some student has face difficulties when they reached to secondary level because of the language they have familiar with to a language which is they are not used to use it.
Besides that, reference book of these subjects in English in more easy to obtain in market because of this reference book are import from Europe country and just without translation. Student also can get more information through internet because most of the articles in internet are write in English.
On the other hand, there are also has some drawback for this project. The main problem now is the teachers are not well equipped especially in Chinese school. Teacher in Chinese school has been asked to teach the mathematics and science in double language. Some of the teacher has taught these subjects in Chinese for many year and they are not use to teach in English. Some of these teachers have lack of the communication skill in English. So how they can teach mathematics and science in English properly? Furthermore, when student are not understand in English, teacher have to use the language which is the student familiar with to explain to them. End up, teacher still have to teach these subjects in their mother tongue.
In my opinion, teach mathematics and science in English was a good idea but it is not suitable to do it when there do not have the well equipped teacher. Government should train more teachers so that this project can implement with least drawback.

(haha… how cruel am I?) After a few times, she also does not talk to me. Through another friend, I know she is afraid of me. At the graduation day, we have celebrated in one of the classmate house. At the end of the celebration, she came to me and gave me a big hug and I have received it. My other friend who seen this scene has shock, we have not speak to each other for more than one year and now we have hugged together. I was also surprise that I will receive her hug.

Foreign workers...
According some research, number of foreign workers has a rapid increase in this few years. Some specialist has predicted that the number of foreign workers will keep increase and will be multiply from its original number. Is that good for hire a foreign workers? Do the foreign do us a favor and benefit to us? My answer is, Yes. The foreign workers have the advantages to the advance of our economic.
First, the foreign workers are cheaper than the local workers. So the company can have more man power with the same amount of money. The greater man power, the more work can be done and done it more quickly. Consequent of that is the augment of the productivity. With that consequence, economic of our country can be improved.
Besides that, some of the foreign workers attitude is better than the local workers. Foreign workers have gone through a hard time when they came to our country and go through some complicated procedure. They also have their family in their own country or hometown and they wished to earn more money to let them have a better living style. So they will work harder and more willing to change or learn the new thing compare to local workers.
In conclude, the advantages of foreign workers have make their number in Malaysia grow bigger and bigger. Although hired the foreign workers have some drawback and I think the drawback can be prevented. So the foreign workers are benefit to us.
