So UMNO Youth is pissed off with the possibility of the new Pakatan government recognising the much dreaded fiercesome horrendous evil Cinapek's UEC?
PETALING JAYA: Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has reiterated his offer for Japan to open a university in Malaysia so that students have access to the Japanese education system.
The Prime Minister made the offer to Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs Taro Kono who made a courtesy call on Dr Mahathir, at the Prime Minister’s Office on Wednesday (July 11).
“At the same time, the students could also learn the Japanese language and more importantly, the Japanese values and cultures, which have proven to be the foundation of Japan’s remarkable success,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Thursday (July 12).
It added that the university would be more accessible and would be able to attract international students not only from the nearby regions but as far as Africa, Central Asia and the Middle East.
“This means it’s not something that can just be decided by the Cabinet, but rather requires input from scholars as well as social and community development experts in the country.”
So Dr Rais Yatim PhD reckoned recognising the UEC in Malaysia requires prior in-depth study, besides considering the interests of the Malays, the views of the Conference of Rulers, etc etc etc.
He worries about the implications of UEC’s recognition on the Malay Language, Islam, and Malay customs.
Effect of UEC on Islam and Malay customs??? Huh!
He pontificated sonorously (in hifalutin mode):
“I think that (recognising) the UEC is something big which touches on the core of civilization, the core of education and the core of our country’s values. Therefore, it requires an in-depth study first.
“This means it’s not something that can just be decided by the Cabinet, but rather requires input from scholars as well as social and community development experts in the country.”
Wow, what pathetic piffling pompous kok-tok. But what about the English language?
He continued in his hifalutin mode (wakakaka):
“In addition, it is also necessary for the government to examine why it needs to be recognised. Is this something of interest to the majority, or to certain quarters with a vested interest in the future of a particular group.”
His racist angle eventually emerges, as to be expected from a member of the ketuanan Pribumi Party.
In the meantime, while UMNO Youth and erstwhile cousin and current Pribumi scholar Rais Yatim entangle their underwear into knots of Gordianesque proportion over possible government's recognition of a Chinese school certificate, the PM (Mahathir, who else) has invited Japan to set up a Japanese university in Malaysia.
The Prime Minister made the offer to Japanese Minister of Foreign Affairs Taro Kono who made a courtesy call on Dr Mahathir, at the Prime Minister’s Office on Wednesday (July 11).
“At the same time, the students could also learn the Japanese language and more importantly, the Japanese values and cultures, which have proven to be the foundation of Japan’s remarkable success,” the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement on Thursday (July 12).
It added that the university would be more accessible and would be able to attract international students not only from the nearby regions but as far as Africa, Central Asia and the Middle East.
So much for the effect of a non-Malay language and culture on the Malay Language, Islam, and Malay customs.
I wonder whether Dr Rais Yatim PhD will pontificate sonorously (in meek mousy mode this time):
“I think that (recognising) the Japanese university is something big which touches on the core of civilization, the core of education and the core of our country’s values. Therefore, it requires an in-depth study first.
“This means it’s not something that can just be decided by the Cabinet, but rather requires input from scholars as well as social and community development experts in the country.”
I bet my balls including and especially those of looes74 that Rais will remain diam-diam as a tikus.
As Penangites would say, "Haw t'au, geeow ch'u boi" .
(kepala harimau tetapi dengan ekor tikus) (berani pada permulaan, takut sebenarnya atau pada akhirnya) wakakaka.
