Malaysian education system is a weird and unique system in the world, traveling of the word, you will realize, how unique we re, maybe one day we can apply world heritage on our system. Primary education divided to vernacular and national school, the administration, syllabus and co curriculum are the same. As we seen and percept Mandarin school is for Chinese, Tamil for India, and National school for Malay, our people are divided since young age. although most of them would be conveyed into a only one stream secondary school ( SMK), but still they could choose entering SMKJ and Chinese independent secondary school which predominant by Chinese. In fact these had make some of them only live in their community, losing the chance to interact with other races. This is an ironic, since us re pound with Malaysian multi-ethnic society that live in harmony for so many decades? But we all know this is an illusion that would only appear on Cuti-cuti or Malaysia, truthly Asia billboard. Be confess to your self, check your contact list how many Chinese or Malay friends you have? How many of you been visit or invite other race to ceremony or Rumah Terbuka? Some of my friend, especially through out their school life never had experience same class with others race, yap...I no hiding it, I referring people from Chinese school. Don’t always accused the government is racist and bias, you re not racist? You re no undermine Malay? But I can understand it, since u primary school, and secondary school the Malay you know is only the Pak Cik selling the goreng pisang, mamak, cleaner, worker ……… However you must realize you re only 22 % in population, you can’t forever hide you self in it, without contact the rest 78% you re nothing……. So kick out any racist ideology, because you re no fit to have it.
Ok, my article here, no for nagging, but I have propose an ideal for new education system. My idea is no origin, be confess, I only modified Sekolah Wawasan that proposed at 90 and but quickly condemned by Dong Zhong. Dong Zhong is a non-profit organization, struggle and fight for Chinese education system, because of them we able to reserve a complete Chinese education system, from primary to higher learning. I appreciate their contribution, but I can’t accept the way they fight. Their too proactive, whatever government policy on education if touching about Chinese school, they will became so hypersensitive, they criticize sekolah wawasan, no accept non-Chinese candidates for headmaster, and reject offering of MOE intend to convert half-subsides to subsides. Indeed, these policy is jeopardize the right of Chinese school, but in flank also kick out a chance make the Chinese education become main stream in current education system.
Sekolah Wawasan or vision school has objective to combine the entire current stream under one root, sharing all hard and software cutting the cost. For you information education is a only field allocated windfall in every year budget. Most of it spend on constructing the school, establish and maintain the facilities, human capital and etc. therefore by sharing the resources, the government can save thousand million of ringgit, reduce the deficit and corruption. Furthermore, the vernacular school would benefit most in Sekolah Wawasan. Start from Merdeka, the government always finding excuse to reject any proposes to establish new Chinese school. And this always become a treat to forced Chinese vote BN in every election. In Sekolah Wawasan project 3 in 1 system, government must build the vernacular school in Sekoah Wawasan, since those racist politicians find no excuse to decline it. Moreover, by organize events like Sport Day, Hari Terbuka, Ceremony and etc, pupils would has chance to communicate, cooperative since young child, tarnish any possible growing of racist ideology in their soul. Malaysian should nurturing student mastering in multiple langues, BRIC new economic engines in next decades, we re the country benefit most in it!! Grabbing these opportunity with superior we had i.e multi langue and culture, we can use it compete other country, which are superior to us in financial, technology and human capital. Don’t angry, I no saying Malaysian is no good therein, but in fact, can our financial fight with Spore and Hong Kong ? Can our technology advance than US, Japan and Korea? Therefore we need find another way to enhance compete to attract any potential market. Blue Ocean strategy mention, don’t land your self in a really full market, expose a new market that no conquer by any one else, a market that only you can exploit.
Sorry, I am writing too much on other subject. Why Dong Zhong still reject Sekolah Wawasan, there are a lot of worry they perceived on this project. First, they can’t trust proposal, if we back to history, government has so many notorious policy and tactics on Chinese community and school. Inevitable, Dong zhong is no worry nothing, all of us know, BN government is no possess any public trust. Corruption, bias, bureaucracy and conservatism, racist and the entire bad thing on earth are what we perceive about BN any steps. Secondly, Dong Zhong worries, if Chinese school merged, they will power on control it. Indeed, if any bias happened on Chinese school after merging, Dong Zhong would lose any judicial status to fight for it. Thirdly, they also worry about the status of Chinese school in sekolah wawasan, are all the schools are equal? All like organization of BN, MCA kowtow to UMNO?
I propose Sekolah Wawasan can be running and become a new weapon of Dong Zhong fight back to government. Dong Zhong must try to lift the problem from only Chinese community to entries citizens. Remain status quo would no benefit to Dong Zhong, encourage non-chinese to independent school by amend the syllabus and conduct religious teaching in school.
perhaps I could propose my ideal as soon as possible…….....
