In the eighties n early nineties, I was enrolled into national school. There were substantial non Malays in national schools that time coz the standard were perceived to be equal or just slightly inferior to vernacular schools.

Its not the vernacular schools are breeding racists, or non Malays just 'suddenly' decide to send their children to vernacular schools. Its not surprising if some Malays think this is a form of non malay rebellion against national unity.

It it the dropping standards of our national schools, creeping islamization, and yes, racism in our national schools. Used to be, teachers are racially mixed and teach because they want to impart knowledge. Nowadays, ppl work as teachers because they can't find other jobs. How to be a good teacher like that? What knowledge and attitude can they impart to the students? Compare that against vernacular school teachers. Do you know their performance are constantly reviewed? If the teacher can't perform, out you go.

Contrast that with our national school teachers. What happened to the racist female teacher in namewee's song? What happened to the teachers involved in the bulan puasa makan tandas fiasco?

You want vernacular schools to die off? Easy. Increase the national schools standard. Hire only dedicated teachers who teach coz they want to teach, not teach coz they can't find any other job (now this is a sweeping statement, i am sure there are teachers who are dedicated, but I leave it to you guys to see with your own eyes how is it with the national school teachers, what's the ratio between dedicated vs just teach just for sake of working). And leave racism out of national schools.

If national schools can produce BETTER quality students than vernacular schools, you don't need to shout close them, they will close themselves due to low enrollment.

Rather than close vernacular schools now and hope to fix the national school later, fix the national schools FIRST ffs!

Typical hardcore sk supporter will never admit there are problems with the current education standards

Like I said earlier, if sk can produce better standards than sjkc, then no need shout also the sjkc will close down.

Up until early nineties, non Malays enrollment in sk were still substantial. Because sk standards were still relatively good. Can we say the same today?

Yup. And interestingly, none of those shouting for vernacular schools to close down ppl ever said anything about that. If our sk are so good why don't our ministers send their children to sk?

Its actually very simple. Whats stopping the govt from starting a streamline system? Revamp the education standard and make it superior to vernacular schools. Then vernacular schools will die off on its own. Heck, even bring back the 70's-80's standard is enough to compete with vernacular schools.

All these talks are useless. Improve our national schools first can or not?

I think no need to talk about Malay only religious & special schools.

Just bring back the 70's-80's standard in our sk is enough. No need to close vernacular schools, they will die off naturally from lack of enrollment.

Sadly lots of ppl just do not understand this point

Don't get baited by seiji

What's stopping the govt from doing that now? Do you need to close vernacular schools to build that? Tak paham ka atau sengaja take mau paham?

MAKE THE SINGLE UNIFIED STREAM SCHOOL NOW WITH BETTER STANDARD THAN VERNACULAR SCHOOL.

If its better than vernacular schools, ppl will naturally enroll their children there. Susah sangat ke nak paham?

Bro, you need to look at the other side of the coin oso la. Want to close vernacular schools but never give better alternatives, how la?

Restore the education standards to our national schools, heck make it even better than vernacular schools. That time you no need to close them, they will close themselves from lack of enrollment

Susah sangat ke nak paham titik ni?

The best solution is this:

1. Build the single unified stream schools NOW with improved & superior education standards thats better than vernacular schools
2. Don't disturb or close the vernacular schools. Let them run as they are
3. Observe the results 10 years from now

I dare to bet rm100-rm1 vernacular schools will lose out from enrollment alone. You win you take rm100. I win i take rm1 only. Ada berani?

Bro, you do know your suggestion can be implemented immediately, today?

Vernacular schools will die a natural death once you have a better & superior education.

No need to force close, just COMPETE, be the better school and let them close themselves.

Good. Now can the govt please rebuild all national schools to follow the standards of the top 10 schools as listed in your statistic?

You're the only one who said want to change the title. The rest all want to close the schools. How la?

kenapa dari dulu sampai tahun 90an banyak murid bukan melayu di sekolah kebangsaan tapi sekarang kebanyakkan murid bukan melayu rela belajar di sekolah cina? prestasi merosot, isu perkauman, isu agama, ini salah kememterian pelajaran ke atau salah sekolah cina?

kalau pasal bahasa kebangsaan, ni pun lagi satu. apakah hanya fasih bahasa kebangsaan baru betul? apakah mamat india yg tinggal di estet, yg tak mampu pergi sekolah, buta huruf, hanya reti bertutur di bahasa ibundanya, tetapi sedikit sebanyak masih menyumbang kepada negara dengan hasil titik peluhnya; apakah dia kurang layak menjadi anak Malaysia berbanding dengan si kaki curi, kaki rasuah, kaki rompak, siang pagi petang malam hanya mahu menghancurkan perpaduan negara, tetapi fasih bahasa kebangsaan?

Earlier you said just close them all, tak payah bagi muka sangat. Then putar halim to "lebih dari bahasa kebangsaan macam tak kena pulak". Now putar halim again to "I-actually-meant-you-can-learn-more-language"

So if you can learn more than 1 language then why your initial statement wanting to close vernacular schools and no need kasi muka?
