ENGLISH AS MEDIUM OF INSTRUCTION

Commenting on  Muhyiddin: UKM proves Malay language works

Dear DPM,

English should be the medium of instruction in  all institutions of learning, especially if we want to move forward and BE RELEVANT in today's global economy. Many of our graduates are useless (and therefore jobless) in today's workforce simply because they CAN'T SPEAK PROPER ENGLISH.

If you want to use the excuse of Korea, Japan and China for being able to retain their language, therefore Malaysia can too, you are DEAD WRONG.

Korea, Japan and China are heavily industry-based and they have made it in the global market. They have their mark in the global market. Just naming a few here:

1. China
   Lenovo - Computers
   NetEase - Gaming site
   Chery - Automobile
   Gree, Haier - Electric products
2. Japan
   Toyota, Subaru - Automobiles
   Kawasaki - High end Motorcycles
   Sony - Electronics and Entertainment,       
   Bathing Ape (BAPE) - Fashion
3. Korea
   Hyundai, Kia - Automobiles
   The Face Shop, Missha - Cosmetics
   LG, Samsung - Electronics

Besides, these countries have hardworking citizens. Apart from that, when the brands go overseas, they become English too.
As for Malaysia, our best brands are mostly operated in English anyways.

And FYI, the three countries are also pushing their citizens to study English, so that they can be more competitive in the marketplace.
