[QUOTE="trancebum, post: 1492820, member: 2073"] for those of fellas who remember being the first few batches of 'kids' sitting for the compulsory Moral paper for SPM...this is another slap in the face by the govt in trying to 'instill racial harmony'. more like forcing it down your throat!! what a double whammy!! well..seeing that i scored a P8 for moral (and my dad's reaction to that was 'what an uncultured and uncouth son i have!'. i had to laugh to that i must say) i sincerely admire those who scored A1 for moral. The education ministry (obviously under instructions from the govt) obviously decided that we can learn moral values from textbooks! and what's worse, is that the lessons are none the more useful when everyone was required to MEMORISE the values and sub-values (or whatever you want to call it). And now, VERY obviously that [COLOR=red][B]FAILED[/B][/COLOR] miserably, they've gone 1 up and want to [B][SIZE=3][COLOR=red]TEACH[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] 'ethnic ties' in university!! hishamuddin is king when it comes to education...dont u agree?? more propoganda by the govt u think? (as some part of the 'teaching' involves the infamous May13 issue). p/s: the very best of luck to those who will have to sit for this paper! Link : http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2006/7/17/nation/14854426&sec=nation Ethnic ties will still be taught [B]PETALING JAYA:[/B] The Higher Education Ministry will study all comments and criticisms on Ethnic Relations, a newly-introduced subject in public universities. Deputy Higher Education Minister Datuk Ong Tee Keat said teaching of the subject would, however, continue. “It will not be fair to stop it before any conclusion is made. But we will study all the comments received, including those from DAP, before making any decision,” Ong told reporters after launching the American Universities Education Fair here yesterday. On Saturday, DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng had claimed that the subject would disrupt harmony among students as the textbook was “divisive and contrary to national interest”. “Instead of fostering inter-communal ties, it will only serve to drive race relations further apart,” Lim had said in a statement. Malaysian Academic Movement president Assoc Prof Dr Wan Abdul Manan Wan Muda however said the subject would [SIZE=4][COLOR=red][B]create awareness on multi-racial harmony[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]. “It will create awareness because university students tend to congregate among their own races these days, unlike in the 1970s,” he added. He said the Government should liberalise the Universities and University Colleges Act (UUCA) so that students could jointly organise activities to promote ethnic harmony. Dr Wan Abdul Manan also said the Government should get a historian with an objective view to write about the country's history. “It has to be someone who does not have a one-sided view, propaganda or agenda.” [/QUOTE]
