CURRENT ISSUE!!
Lately , it seems that there are certain group who are unhappy with the teaching of Science and Mathematics in English , especially when they protested today in front of the Istana and to give a memorandum to our King. For me , its fine as this is democracy , folks can have rally to protest and this is what is democracy all about. Police would be there as usual to protect people and to prevent them from going overboard. Not to forget that they too have to protect our King.
Anyway , what I think that is Maths and Science should be thought in English because it provides many benefits for the student. I am not against Bahasa Malaysia (the Malay language) and I do know that its our national language , but what I am saying that if we want to give our students the x-factor that they need when they want to say study aboard then certainly maths and science in English would do the trick. Plus on top of that , we need folks who are well verse in both of the languages if you want to contribute something to the country. For instance , if our command of the language is poor in Science and Mathematical terms , it would be hard to negotiate a deal or work with foreign clients and so on. As for protecting the Bahasa or the Malay language , I am sure that we do have other ways – for instance History , Geography are thought in Malay. Not only that , basically you can’t forget Malay nor its status would ‘degrade’ as its stated in the constitution that Malay language is the official language
Secondly there are lots of reference books which are written in English then any other languages. This makes it students easier to refer whenever they want to find something. Its even possible to find YouTube videos on how to solve mathematical question and such. This makes it easier for them to gain knowledge and to understand more.
These are just some of the advantages of teaching maths and science in English. What I am suggesting to the government is that in order to satisfy these groups , Maths and Science should be thought in Malay – give it as a extra class for those who think that they want to gain this extra knowledge in Bahasa. It would satisfy both the parties. I’m not sure about you , but certainly I’ve benefited from learning Maths and Science in English. Otherwise , trust me I’ve heard horror stories from my lecturer that students do face the hard time when they are in Universities or in Colleges whereby medium of instruction is in English. These students get confused with the English term as keep in mind that they don’t know the terms in English.

The ability to understand and use nonverbal communication is a powerful tool that will help you connect with others, express what you really mean, navigate challenging situations, and build better relationships at home and work.
Nonverbal communication, or body language, is a vital form of communication. When we interact with others, we continuously give and receive countless wordless signals. All of our nonverbal behaviors, the gestures we make, the way we sit, how fast or how loud we talk, how close we stand, how much eye contact we make send strong messages.
The way you listen, look, move, and react tell the other person whether or not you care and how well you’re listening. The nonverbal signals you send either produce a sense of interest, trust, and desire for connection or they generate disinterest, distrust, and confusion.

what did I think ab0ut bl0gging bef0re this class and what d0 I think 0f it n0w??
Before this, I know what is blog and about blogging but I think its so boring.. we can paste a photo and let other comments.. just more like a pave of simple diaries, no input that my brain would digest.. these are what I found indeed.. from there on, I thought I would not create my own blog just the way others, I prefer create and using blog to share opinions, skills, documentary and information as well the benefits and drawbacks of blogging is depend on the key point or we can call it the theme or objectives.. as for me, if someone creates blog just to paste a vacation photo and let other comments.. or to express political views which more like disgrace to races..I don't think it gives benefit in fact it is just a waste of time!

why I have t0 write bl0gs??
I’m not like other bloggers..I don’t “gotta write.” But.. I need to have my own blog because I think blog is a place that I can share with others about myself..besides, I can share my experience and problems with my friends..to anyone who wants to know me a closer they can go to my blog....
Even if nobody reads my blog, I should write it. It's become pretty clear to me that blogging is a source of both innovation and clarity.. I have many of my best ideas and insights while blogging.. Struggling to express things that my thinking or feeling helps me understand it better.
I've talked with a lot of people who are reluctant to write blogs. Everyone offers pretty much the same reasons they're too busy, or they're afraid to put something on "permanent public record", or they think nobody will read their blog, or they think blogging is narcissistic. Or they're worried that they either don't have anything good to say, or they won't say it very well.

me VS ch0c0late
Do u like to eat chocolate?? I like chocolate very much..that's why I chose chocolate as my blog style. Some people think chocolate can make someone fat but I don't think so. Chocolate can make me happy, enjoy and relax.. ;)
Everyone loves chocolate..kids and adults alike and no matter what your age, you’ll enjoy learning about your favorite flavor. Chocolate is one of the most popular and yummiest types of foods that will likely stay at the top of most peoples favorite food lists. Chocolate is something most of us have grown up enjoying, but very few of us have taken the time to learn the many facts that are associated with chocolate. There are actually hundreds of facts that are associated with chocolate and I have created a list of the ones that I find most interesting.
INFO!!
Scientists claim that chocolate, eaten in moderation, can lower blood pressure. Dark chocolate has recently been promoted for its health benefits, including a substantial amount of antioxidants that reduce the formation of free radicals. Dark chocolate, with its high cocoa content, is a rich source of the flavonoids epicatechin and gallic acid, which are thought to possess cardio-protective properties. Dark chocolate has also been said to reduce the risk of heart attack when consumed regularly in small amounts.
