Going mad

Whose fault is it that they cannot face up to reality? Is it the teacher's fault? Or was it the federal government's fault in the first place? Yes, by all means, please promote the national language but at the same time too, we cannot avoid that the world is getting smaller and everyone needs a common language to converse whether in the fields of business, academia or whatever.

In my opinion, the teachers were the victims of past governments bent on nationalistic ideals but see where those ideals have led to: a half-past six grasp of the English language, the lingua franca of the world. I know it's a struggle for teachers such as these but looking at the bigger picture, don't let small difficulties stop our children from seeking their rightful places in this world. It's their future at stake now. If we reverse the decision to teach science and mathematics in English, I fear we'll just be doing a greater injustice to the country than before.
