QUOTE(Gentleblueroses @ Nov 22 2015, 06:28 PM) Wait, then that's not much different from mexican immigrants in the US? But i thought even mexican immigrants there need to speak English. Mexican immigrants are inferior people. So they need to learn US English, language of superior people. Superior races in Malaysia need not learn Malay, language of inferior people. They need only learn English, language of superior people. /tldr

QUOTE(Jyunkai @ Nov 22 2015, 06:32 PM) There are tons of mexicans in the US that doesn't speak english, and the governments there are actually adopting to the situation by hiring more staff that speak spanish, and the businesses there are also starting to use more spanish to cater to the spanish speaking population. FYI, america doesn't have an official language. Also, it is completely different from the mexicans in america situation, the mexicans went to America when America was already a established country with a long history and its own culture. The Chinese and indians were in Malaysia even before malaysia was a thing, and they came during the time when English was the language of government, not malay. That only changed after the malay nationalists gained power. Revisionist history. Chinese and Indian arrived in this region before the British. They came in as traders, others were brought in by the Malay rulers as workers.

That only changed after the malay nationalists gained power. The United States does not have a national official language; nevertheless, English (specifically American English) is the primary language used for legislation, regulations, executive orders, treaties, federal court rulings, and all other official pronouncements; although there are laws requiring documents such as ballots to be printed in multiple languages when there are large numbers of non-English speakers in an area. As part of what has been called the English-only movement, some states have adopted legislation granting official status to English. As of October 2014, out of 50 states, 31 had established English as the official language, and Hawaii had established both English and Hawaiian as official.[17] In 2014, three more states, Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey, considered enacting English as their official state language.[18] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_the_United_States

QUOTE(Jyunkai @ Nov 22 2015, 06:46 PM) If Malays were not rulers then British were not rulers too. So what's with Kapitan Cina Yap Ah Loy? Kapitan China (also spelled Kapitan Cina, Capitan China, etc.) was a title given to leaders of overseas Chinese enclaves in Southeast Asia.[1][2] The local 15th century rulers of the region, such as Melaka (modern day Malacca) and Banten (or Bantam), chose to deal with a single individual from each ethnic group under their rule.[3][4] This administrative method of indirect rule was later adopted by the Portuguese when they took over Melaka in the 16th century, as well as the Dutch in the Dutch East Indies, and the English in British Malaya.[3]

QUOTE(slimey @ Nov 23 2015, 09:17 PM) tool in itself is neutral. there's no need to label them with attributes it doesn't carry Not really sure if you know what you are talking about. Currently we are saying that "national language" is useful, and should be used. You are saying that " national language" can be good or bad, therefore should not be adopted. In other words... YellowKingValley: Fire useful. Lets use fire as a tool. slimey: Fire can be good or bad. Avoid fire. No to fire.
