On December 2009, just after Christmas, I went to a cinema in one of the shopping mall in Kota Kinabalu. Me and my friends were planning to watch the biggest movie of the year ‘ Avatar’. As expected, it was crowded and we were lucky not to get the neck bending seat right at the front. We managed to get seats that were okay even though I thought it was a bit too close to the screen which made everything moved so fast.

The movie was after all not disappointing and worth our time watching it. Only a few glitch of course especially when they suddenly changed the Na’vi subtitles into Malay which was a bit confusing and funny. It was also annoying as they put some words into short term as if I was reading a confusing short text message.

To make things worst, right in front of us was a family of 4, the parents and a pair of twins babies which could have been less than a year old. At the other side, another couple with a probably 2 or 3 years old child screaming and whining around. Lucky for us that the audio was loud enough to compensate the extra sound effect around us.

However, what were these parents thinking guys? Don’t they ever realized they should not bring along kids let alone infants into the cinema? They must have no idea on how such loud noises can affect their children. They must have never think about the flashing lights that can damage the babies sight. I bet they want the kids to grow up with eye problem or even worst, hearing problems. I thought it was really inappropriate to take such a young kids to the cinema. Don’t you think so too? Maybe they were so desperate to go out and enjoy a movie but there is no harm being reasonable right. Grown up kids I don’t mind, they can enjoy the movie at least. But these a toddlers! How are they supposed to understand the movie let alone watch it?

They should at least leave their kids to someone to babysit them while they can go out and watch any movies they want. Or they could have just waited until the home DVD is out so they can watch together at home without disturbing others or damaging their kids senses.

English at work is ‘weird’

KUALA LUMPUR – MALAYSIA’S deputy education minister has said that speaking English in the workplace is ‘weird’ and harmful to the nation’s culture and identity, a report said on Wednesday.

‘This also occurs in government-linked companies where we have this weird culture of people speaking to each other in English instead of the national language,’ he said at the launch of a linguistics seminar. ‘We are polluting our own culture and identity as a nation,’ he said.

‘It would be difficult to strengthen the position of Bahasa Malaysia if this culture continued,’ he added, urging Malaysians to emulate the French, Japanese and Koreans, who stuck to their own language.

The New Straits Times said Mr Mohd Puad also criticised young people for using a mix of English and Bahasa Malaysia in SMS text messages and on the Internet.

He called on the nation’s leaders to use Bahasa Malaysia for all meetings and events and said that when he receives letters in English he returns them and asks for them to be written in the national language. — AFP

THIS IS MY POINT OF VIEW

So what do you think? Is this some kind of a joke or a serious piece of mind from the deputy education minister? Could this be the reason behind the short lived method of teaching Math and Science in English at school? To preserve the Bahasa Malaysia. Does English pollutes Malaysian’s very own culture and identity?

Firstly, Bahasa Malaysia has been our very own Malaysian language for more than 40 years ever since it was formed. I am very sure the language itself has a very strong place in every single Malaysian already. And I am proud of it. It is a unique language for sure and easy to learn as well. However, only for those who are interested.

Second, the usage of English widely in private and government link sectors are not an issue at all. If you would, blame the education system. Do we have enough source of reference in Bahasa during college and university? My own experience told me there were not. Yes we do have plenty of them out there but they were only as good when you are still in study not when you go out into the reality. For someone in the tourism industry like me, English has been the best way of communicating with others. For those working in any foreign company in Malaysia, they have to speak in English.

The minister must have forgotten that English had been recognized as the second language in Malaysia for years. I wonder what happened to the English speaking campaign. I wonder if he will actually return any letters written in English just to be rewritten in Bahasa even if it is an official letter. Maybe he might ask me to re-post my blog in Bahasa too.
