EVEN a big self-sufficient country like China is encouraging its people to learn the English language to advance themselves in this competitive world and what are we compare with them?
We should go for English unless we have decided to go backwards instead of forward, and all government efforts of attracting FDI will go to waste if this was the case.
We do not need to be specialised or to speak like the white men, but at least a proficiency in the Englsih language should be a must.
Customer service officers become redundant if they can speak Bahasa Malaysia only. I have dealt with many such cases. It is well and fine if they are just dealing with our own people who are mostly multi-lingual. But what with a foreign enquiry?
No wonder we are losing out to others like India for FDI.
For the sake of our future generations and the coutnry’s progress, discard our “katak dalam tempurong” mentality and embrace what is now a universal language that is English in our education system.
