We keep arguing the same thing. It becomes an x-file issue...considered a petty issue nowadays... seems everybody is accepting that English is crucial in order to move forward and achieving wut we call as developed country. Yeah i know...!! Malaysia is moving forward...furthering to become an advanced country in the near future.
We mite hear people complaining of using a foreign language as the first language instead of second. People mite argue 'why do we have to adopt this penjajah language? wen we have our own mother tongue?!!' i do agree with all those points people have brought up about the usage of English.
Why Japan manage to survive and even becomes one of a giant country in the world. One of the well-known countries for its rapid development. They dont even need outsider's lnguage to help them thriving.
But... In Malaysia, we are totally different from Japan. Not that we are lousy or anything... its juz that, we dont have that much power to bring our own language forward and make it powerful and acceptable.
MAybe..Juz maybe...we dun have the courage to make things rite here. We dont work hard enough to make this real. I do realise that i love English but i keep reminding myself that worshiping this language should not be in my diary.
As malaysian, we have no choice (as wut i can see) We have to learn this language, by hook or by crook. We need to bring our nation forward. Then, after we have accomplished the first mission, introducing our culture and language should be our next target!
I believe, we are no different from the west and even from those Asian countries namely Japan and Korea!
