PPSMI Does Not Negate Status Of Malay Language

The Teaching And Learning Of Science And Mathematics In English Is Aimed At Ensuring That Students Could Grasp The Subjects In An International Language

Kuala Lumpur - The teaching and learning of Science and Mathematics in English (PPSMI) does not negate the status of the Malay language but will ensure that the young can compete globally.

Cheras Education Foundation chairman Datuk Syed Ali AlHabshee said PPSMI was needed so that students could grasp the concept of subjects in an international language.

"It will facilitate learning of science and technology as 90 percent of information on science and mathematics is in English," he said in a statement here on Tuesday.

Syed Ali who is also Cheras Umno chief was commenting the move by the Federation of National Writers (Gapena) in lodging a police report against the Education Ministry claiming PPSMI was against the federal constitution and the Education Act 1996.
