Although that it is stated in the constitution that Chinese and Indian should have the privileges to maintain their vernacular school, however, it seems that that school system has caused polarization of students where Chinese went to Chinese schools, Indian went to Indian schools, and the Malay went to the National school. Eventually, these students end up in the national school starting from Form 1. Being comfortable conversing and talking with their old friends from their old schools, I would say less than 10% of these students would end up eating together on the same table during recess time. Believe it or not, this continue up until the tertiary level where the Chinese only sits with the Chinese up in front of the class and the Malays sit with their own back behind in the class. That is what happening in my class. Although, I would consider them friends but I don't have best friends in other ethics since I came to University because I decided to join the Chinese group and interact less with my Malay friends. It is sickening to see this happening and if nothing is being done, things might get out of hand in the next 50 years. Did you know that I've met a Malay friend who said that he had never talk to a Chinese before because all this while he has been in the religious school and during his tertiary level, he took up a religious subject!!! That's sick!!
Namewee published a new video condemning the government for not providing Chinese University. Did you think it's appropriate? So, it will end up the Chinese will only mix with the Chinese from 7 years old until 24 and when they enter the working environment, it's either they get a cultural shock or have to find a company which hires a certain ethnic only. If you know that you don't have a future when you enroll in private Chinese secondary school, why did you want to do that? Why won't you opt for national school? Is it because your 'ang poh' and 'Malay' kanasai? Or is it because if you choose not to enter national school because you have to go to 'Peralihan class'??
p.s. I'm sorry if I have offended my classmates. Hehe.. ;P

lintePersonally, I went into Chinese school because I wish to learn Chinese, my mother tongue. Imagine Indonesian Chinese. Thai Chinese. They don't even know how to speak their native language! It's the education that forms a nation. Yeah, I do agree that Sekolah Kebangsaan can help make all races mix together, but it doesn't help solving the problem completely. It just appear to others that we are united! Once I heard a Malay politician saying that her daughter can play with all races when she was in kindergarden. But once the daughter enter primary school, she starts to differentiate people by races and religion as most Chinese are not Muslim, thus not entering the same religious classes(or moral classes for non-Muslim), and the teacher starts telling them the difference between their race and others. Slowly, she is closer to her friends of the same race.The mother then transfer her to an international school. For me, the problem occurs not mainly due to the vernacular school, but the person itself. Whether he/ she takes an effort to mix around with other races. Of course, the family itself plays an important role. We are living in a multi-racial society. Of course we need to interact with other races. But we should not abort our own culture. Be proud to be Malaysian. Be proud to knowing your own culture and language!
