Anwar wants a return of Bahasa Melayu in classrooms

De facto opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has called for the scrapping of teaching Science and Mathematics in English.

He wants teacher to start conversing with the students in Bahasa Melayu as the official medium in the education system.

Anwar was quoted, “This issue has become a controversy for far too long. We consider this policy a betrayal of Bahasa Melayu as our official language. But how we do it should be decided by educationists and with consideration towards the national education policy. This includes not forcing our children to pass English as a compulsory subject in the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) as this will result in many students, especially in rural areas, to fail.”

Aside from calling the return of Bahasa Melayu, Anwar however urge it is still important for Malaysian to learn and master the language of English.
