A REPUBLIC OF VIRTUE
Dr Azly Rahman
I read with interest about ongoing governmental discrimination against Chinese schools, as highlighted by Dong Zong.
Why have been quality teachers as good as an abundance of resources still channeled usually to Malay-dominated schools? Why have been young kids in Chinese schools criminalised by a 'sanction upon training staff" which will ultimately dep! rive stu dents of a great mother-tongue education?
What essentially is a seizure with regard to denial of a students' right to their own language? Do policy makers essentially assimilate a attribute between culture, cognition, consciousness as good as citizenship?
What does nationalism meant these days, as good as how do you assimilate it vis-a-viz use of language in schools? Whose code of nationalism is being made dominant as good as what should an inclusive a single look like?
What is a real emanate behind a age-old request for a Chinese schools to have some-more teachers? How have been a young kids criminalised by all this? Where is a pacific path to this peaceful profession called education?
When you consider of education, you consider of a young kids first as good as foremost. you consider of each kid as a gift brought in to this universe in all his/her informative as good as cognitive complexities as good as of a honour of a family raising a kid independent of what a 'state' wants a kid to become.
Schooling is a routine of mass babysitting in a entrepreneur state, such which a kid will be supposing a place for 8 h! ours a d ays, 5 days a week, to be taken care of, similar to in a kibbutz, whilst a relatives go to work, selling their work to a state.
The kid is ostensible to behave as good as sense new things whilst a relatives have been ostensible to be obedient and, as great workers, move profit to a state. The state, by its apparatuses, uses a increase as good as products of 'alienated labour' of parents/workers as good as 'develops' a nation according to what a political as good as mercantile chosen imagines what 'development' means.
The kid gets to be socialised to turn adults of a state. The mass baby-sitting agencies called public, in isolation or prejudiced schools, tended by 'managers of virtue' called teachers - as good as wardens' in boarding schools.
Their role is to safeguard which a kid learns to turn nationalistic or even 'patriotic' in accordance to what this equates to vis-a-viz state ideology. In Malaysia, a current beliefs is perhaps called '1Malaysia'.
Polarised preparation system
Are schools a happy place for a child? How shall a kid be moulded? What language will he/she be proficient in? Whose enlightenment will he/she inherit? In Malaysia, will it be a enlightenment of a Malays? Or a hybrid of a Malay-Muslim culture? Who defines what will be it in a best interests of a child?!
What essentially is Malaysia's truth of preparation in this age as good as time of flourishing turmoil perfectionist for radical change, inclusiveness, linguistic diversity as good as competency, as good as a final of a globalised world?
Why not let a kid be schooled good first in his/her mother-tongue to develop informative pride, as good as next let a middle of direction at a secondary turn be in English primarily?
Why not teach even a theme of Islamic Studies as good as Moral Education in English, as good as next hope for a kid good fo! r tertia ry preparation which is predominantly English-speaking, with courses such as Philosophy, Ethics, as good as Cultural Studies as compulsory first-year subjects?
Malaysians: Let us not be dishonest, ignorant or false in a approach you pattern a best informative as good as cognitive sourroundings for a kid to grow up to turn world-wise as good as productive citizens. As it is now, Malaysia's preparation complement is polarising as good as inspired by a apartheid system.
The products of a Malaysian tutorial complement have for several batches upheld by a circuit belt. The emanate of competition relations has turn some-more as good as some-more exacerbated, partly as a effect of a incapacity of a preparation policy makers to pattern pacific tutorial settings as good as peaceable guidance environments to concede respect as good as high regard for each other's enlightenment to flourish.
Public sermon is apropos some-more tormented with calls by this or which racist-fascist groups in counterclaim of a broke as good as moral! ly as go od as nationally bankrupting beliefs of Ketuanan Melayu or 'pseudo-Malay idiotic pride' as you would translate it.
Has there been any bid by a Education Ministry ! to desig n as good as exercise a curriculum upon multicultural education? Has there been an interest in it at all, since a inlet of Malaysia's communal governing body which has evolved in to a state of ethno-psychopathology adjacent upon irrationality, fervour as good as massive corruption?
As an educator involved in a training of informative perspectives, philosophy, as good as education, I'd similar to to see young kids in Malaysian schools move their enlightenment with honour in to a classroom, to be common with others in a deeply enchanting beautiful guidance context.
This is so which you move in what a philosopher Charles Taylor would call a "ethics of authenticity" - of a ethical traditions of enlightenment - in to a guidance routine as good as not have these young extraordinary informative minds evolve in to turn 'knockers or boosters' of this or which code of ultra-ethnocentrism.
Let us see how a Education Ministry will finalise this Dong Zong emanate once as good as for all, prior to an additional system of administration takes this important charge some-more seriously.
