Flip flopping between English and Malay in education policy

Yeah, which is why I was kinda confused when you guys got it wrong.

Which part of my post was that comment aimed at? Crappy english or the whole 2nd language thing?

LOL. OMG, thats what my mum says. "ITS GOOD TO LEARN FROM MISTAKES" and I'm like "yes mum, shuttup now!"

i ish sadl.... i english so char.. Amour please teach us engrisu.....i oni know cina coz i am cina

more towards the latter.

Alrighty

Why.. what's your stance on the issue?

OMG its so freaking coldalkfsldkfldjflsjdf.


Meh, w/e. One thing I can't stand are the Malaysian accents...O.M.G.

This is my history

Primary school : Malay + Cantonese
Secondary school (till Form 3) : Malay + Cantonese + English
Form 4 and Form 5 : Malay + Cantonese
College : English + Cantonese

My Malay proficiency is still good, when compared to other people

Hehe...

You want her to teach you english only ah...

Malaysian = Singaporean

Manglish = Singlish

Still, Singaporean is better

I'm surprised they even know what a Malaysian accent is :|

Anyone going anywhere tonight?

And Malaysian accent consists of?

So.. a good command of english increases the chances of hitting a gal???

ooo i see SY buayaing here

Not to mention to what extent can Malay actually help us aside from just communicating or interacting with other malaysian.

Have you ever seen any subject in university level (overseas) that uses Bahasa Malaysia (Melayu to be exact) as the common language? I certainly not. Maybe there is or are, but let's face the fact that English is the one that actually been widely use throughout the world in tertiary education.

And its not simple to actually translate Mathematics, Science and Economics from Malay to English. Its obviously a disadvantage for student who wants to pursue their studies overseas. Time consuming. Plus, i believe most universities in Malaysia are conducted in Engrand. And politician believed that by putting BM aside, it would cause Bahasa Malaysia to lose its value and culture? Pfft....

'Have you eaten your dinner. '
This sentence is wrong?

It takes more than that

Actually, language proficiency, do not matters much, depending on the target

Hello Mill...
Cause you said i buaya phailed ma.. haha...
Abo i let you buaya again, want???

meh.. i went to an international school in my malaysian life, i wouldnt know shit about a malaysian accent

Doesn't the whole Malaysian accent thing consist of:

1) Alot of LAH's
2) Funny pronunciations.
3) WAN (Want/One) and only?

Example: "EI MUMMI, Y LIKE DIS WAN?"
