What is vernacular school for when u can still learn your Hokkien or Mandarain or Cantonese in Sekolah Kebangsaaan. I am a Malay and I feel comfortable when I be friend with a Chinese who can speak Malay fluently,not with a broken English. And I have a Chinese friend with that capability that I even willing to give him the Bumiputera status if I can do so. I've been overseas where Chinese cannot do much without speaking English fluently. Why are we so protective of vernacular school and yet we demand for social right or whatever you want to call it. Are we being Singapore?Look what happened to Malay in Singapore?Seats in Parliament for Malay?How much? Village of the Melayu's cannot be developed as it is for "reserved JUNGLE" in order to "protect the nature". Protect the nature? I really hope that you are not "protecting the nature".
