YOURSAY | 'We should be confident in our national language while also embracing other languages.'

ABC123: Sarawak’s move is the right way forward. We must build bridges, not walls. The national education system needs a total revamp. Bahasa Malaysia, yes, but English, too, with more time devoted to Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. A balanced education system will better prepare our young people for the future.

GanMu: Sarawak is truly a role model for all other states to emulate for their youth. The focus on English is classic and with such a stance by Sarawak, every Sarawakian graduate is far better equipped than his contemporaries in Peninsular Malaysia.

They have a chance to seek better opportunities in the world. This is the way to go. Give our youth all the right tools needed for their future.
