In all honesty, if Bahasa Melayu was made a compulsory subject to pass for our graduates, I foresee many more dropouts in our local universities compared to the number of dropouts today due to the lack of proficiency in English.
????????????????????????????????

not compulsory?

Fa Abdul surely a bodo guy. It's important to learn both if you want to survive in bolehland. English as to learn and to convey.. While bahasa to convey only.. medical studies la

But having poor proficiency in English is like working as a barber without knowing which one is the scissors and which one is the comb. Fa Abdul bodo

Must be an umno macai from the way she implies dap chinese cant speak bm well
Meanwhile many rempit using bahasa rempit

lol this again.

language is a tool which should left up to each individual to learn and not forced else be scorned.

I only see this scorning happening in this insecure clan of people.

As for those who are not competent enough to go international yet cant speak BM... mati...

OK, idiots, afterall being said and done, still non-malays can speak 1 or 2 more language than malays.

since when Sabahan and Sarawakian care for melayu vote ???

who said no malay ??.. how many is there ??...they care for malay votes ??.. they care for malay supremacy ??.... they care for islamic state ???.. since when these issue wud motivate them ??.. the guy who bring up the issue is a Sarawakian... what to do with peninsular ??

Nak betul spelling orang, betulkan punctuation/capitalization diri sendiri. Be a real grammar nazi.

u meant the Sarawakian care to woo melayu voters ???

how many of them is there ??... do S&S malay care on racial , religion and language issue like peninsular malay ???

nope.. even Adenan from BN also supporting English as formal medium langauge...

ya.. the whole sarawakian is supporting english,.. hence the 20 points agreement...

nope.. it's u who miss the point,.. even TAR debate in english in Parliament...

nah.. LKY also speak english parliament...

mana ada 10 years period,.. only when mamaktir period, he enforce all official language to malay,..

my dad even had his citizenship cert in English...

I'm surprise you actually agree with me that BM should be up to each individual to learn or not to learn.

Most of the time, it's guys like you who like to scorn against those who don't see BM as that important.

Now are you sure you're talking the same thing here or
you're butthurt?

The word egoistic is an adjective.  Adjectives modify a noun or a pronoun.  Where is the noun or pronoun?

Don't get me started on redundancy.

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 .....

I memang not proud.. What is there to be proud of our BM?
Nothing

Stupid bm defenders
Repair the bm that now derailed to Bahasa rempit only talk..

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!
