Anyway..We Love Our Country Malaysia..We Are One Malaysia :)

In the nutshell, with many changes in the education fields, Malaysia still categorized under on of the best education system in the world.We as Malaysian citizen should be proud of what we having in our country after 55 years of independence.We Already "Merdeka" and we are unite as "One".In this last entry for this blog, I upload along "Lagu 1 Malaysia" that fulfill the Malaysian theme of this blog. Enjoy the song people. Assalamualaikum.



Challenges Before And Now !!!!!







Compared to the life and challenges of past and present students, there are many differences.

Where once only a short walk or bike ride can bring a student to the school, now there are much more transportations out there to school or a car waiting at the front of the house for the students. 

Even there were once the students only used to eat basic food in intention to cover up their hunger until the school’s bell rings however students nowadays now being dumped with variety of cuisines for them to fulfil their wants and hunger.

Those who are more fortunate will have extra pocket money supply from their parents and the needs and wants of having variety electronic gadgets such as advanced mobile phones and laptops surely be fulfilled on time.


However, amid all the facilities, there are arose effect of negativity when we viewing the self-esteem and enthusiasm to study of the students as they are not as solid as ever before in this new era.

Student achievement is also not as great today although they are surrounded by luxury compared to the old generation students that are more low profiles and have a simple living.

Scenario creates significant gaps to allow the expectations that the students today are over pampered that lead to the cause of low self-esteem and their life principles changed to be weak and fragile.

Students in past need to work hard to meet the desire to make them more successful in spite of the poverty that strikes their life. They work hard and study smart even though with not enough financial in hand.

Parents before give full credence to educational institutions in hope to make their children successful in life compared to the parents today who mostly they assume that teachers don’t have any right to touch or punish their children even their children commit any mistakes in study or failing in importance subjects.

The pampered way of living among the students nowadays surely will give more bad impacts towards the students’s achievements in study and the chance of Malaysian students to grab the best achievement in life will be lower in time.

Current Education Spoils The Students ?????

Education of the old day’s era and now is not much different except for the changes of the subject. This is my observation after seeing the student’s education and school experience in the past. I can honestly say that the education in Malaysia country needs a revolution not only from the teachers but the parents as well. 

Although generally the education system in Malaysia's from past is not very good, however there are less negative results of students in past compared to the students in present time. Maybe in the old days, there are less exposure of negative symptoms and negative cultures towards the students.

After I read about the education of students that study abroad at international school in this modern day, I found the education system of Malaysia is as follows:

1) The Malaysian education system that does not punish the students that cannot perform well in the annual tests but being punish by which they are grouped into the same class (the lower class especially) for the following year. There is a saying that stated “for they are condemned to stupidity forever”. This is because in that class there will be some students that have no interest in learning and they may interferes the desire of other students that interested to study to succeed but needs more attention from the teacher as they are located in the lower class.





2) One way learning being practices which there is no space for discussion among students and teachers.

3) The teachers just give more attention to top class while the one who really requiring more attention is the lower class students.

4) Most of the teachers only emphasis on memorization or nonstop training rather than ensuring that students to understand the basic concept of a topic,

5) Parents are not obliged to sign their children’s homework nowadays to make sure the homework is done on time.

6) The school does not call for parents with troubled children in their studies for every each term to simplify the problems of the child and let the problems to continue.
