It been so until matriculation come along

Because we inherited UK Education System since we gained independence.
Even our government formed MPM/STPM, the original UK A-Level papers were "translated to Malay" in the initial years of MPM in 1970s.

Until our MOE / MOHE managed to stand with its own two feet, and create their own papers.

which else u think is always tertindas?

UEC is a 6 years program & most private Chinese secondary schools allow UEC students to take SPM in their 5th year.

Point is, if you're forcing the UEC students to take SPM, then what happens to the final year of UEC? Only exclusively for UEC students that fail SPM?

cause they want Malaysia 1963 to be Malaya (ex-Straits) pre-1957

No one gonna favor STPM, if given a choice, unless you are "poor", or die die ego problem want join STPM, since the education revamp in 2013 to Modular System.

Alot of Malaysian Chinese, rather pay full or find "backdoor" programs to direct enter gov. unis.
Then these few years popped up many IPTA Foundation Program. RM 20k++ for one year scam.
Claimed you score well, maybe can "grant" a backdoor to IPTA... Then mana pula program to new, can't enroll via UPU.
Then still ended up paying unsubsidized tuition fees in Malaysia.

Otherwise, you go Private University's Foundation/Pre-U Program, majority all Malaysian Chinese faces.
Go to any A-Level College in Klang Valley, Johor, Penang, 90% of the people are Malaysian Chinese from SPM/IGCSE.

STPM is par to A level and STPM
It is preU for bachelor degree

syllabus was changed as part of the decades long program to transform Malayan , Sabah and Sarawak cultural and psychosocial identity. ( The stuff behind buku latihan is not an excerpt from the constitution , as an example)

if the UK syllabus was still to be utilized today, the gomen would have collapsed under public criticism in the 80s.

Smart critical minds is something the Malayan syllabus was always designed to avoid.

Also why the elites of Malaysia do not send their kids to be molded under the national syllabus. It is bad, and for everyone that can avoid it, they will .

The effort continues today, as directed by Malaya even though push back is now seen from Sarawak.

I don't understand why they take UEC but want to go local U. Have you seen the syllabus? Semua china focus. History also about China. Language all Mandarin.

Just go apply to Taiwan or China U. Leave the spots for those that study local. So small minority make so much noise.

Haram

basically this

they themselves chose to take UEC instead of the national syllabus, then complain here and there.

DAP always tembak MCA on this..
lagi say vote them in will approve overnight becoz last mile ady
now time to teach them a lesson lor and force them to make good their promise..

here come another question.

half of the students left after taking SPM, if I am the parents, I will think why I pay so much to study at independent school just to take SPM? most who taking UEC perhaps have not thought of what they want.

perhaps they should transform to international school LOL

ask DAPig la why now so diam.

last time every week also uec uec uec.

Other country does not have so many aliran... our education already very special to minority.

Takpe la.. they can send their kids to Sabah Sarawak study, sana recognized.
Kan now all the haters puji Sabah terbaik.. suka Warisan.... is time to go Sabah study liao.

owai.. even Sabahan also wanna stay here.... owai .. no comment.

Kan.. .apa salah SMK... apa salah bahasa... apa cina mau!!!

it was the only pre uni channel until mamakthir intro the best/worst tongkat ever in history of education. only malaysia got this raced based system yo and im not even joking.

same thought, to me, UEC is similar to international school, supposed to take the international syllabus for entry to overseas universities. The only difference is UEC crowd are more of the SOB group to demand recognitions locally.

As a Chinese, would also say independent school syllabus gtfo to private unis la... Make sure if poorfag, be the creme of the crop in your results and curriculum to obtain scholarship.
