I think this article was well written and it does raise a valid point...imagine the Syrian refugees moving to Europe now and living there , after 100 years their descendants ask the german government yo stop emphasizing the German language and to focus on English ..... Do u think that will fly ??? I admit my BM is not as good as my English or my French but I can speak it and I do try to communicate the best way I can, As a Malaysian we should b able to speak the language of the nation we are born and raised in , after all 100/200 years ago some of our ancestors would have had to live of the mercy of the inhabitants of this land.....it's not too much effort to honor those who took our forefathers in and whose descendants with whom we share this country with .....

Malay language is so much easier to learn compared to more complex languages like English and Mandarin. It's our national language, so fundamentally all Malaysians should at least know how to speak and read Malay.
If anyone wants to migrate to Denmark or Japan for example, you must pass their language exam first before you can be a citizen. In my opinion, every MP should be fluent in both Malay and English. They're representing the people! |

QUOTE(joe_mamak @ Nov 23 2015, 12:12 PM) Precisely! Btw, if everyone champions the Malaysian agenda, why the big hoo-haa over the usage of our national language? If we take pride of our country, shouldn't we also take pride of our national identity which comprises our national language? For those who take offense of my name calling, please remember that I only called those who do not take pride in our national language as ignorant buffoons. But then again, I guess "Siapa makan cili, dia lah yang terasa pedasnya" Cheers! |
