HUMAN & ANIMAL TO HAVE SAME CLASSROOM IN SCHOOL & UNIVERSITIES
pigclass;Star16th.June
INDIA HAS ANIMALS IN CLASSROOMS, & OUR EDUCATION MINISTERS MAKES OUR STUDENTS IN THE CLASSROOM FEELS LIKE ANIMALS.
By day they are centres of learning, by night they become pigsties and cowsheds – and now school authorities in India's north-eastern states have had enough. “We are rather worried about the pathetic conditions of our schools ... where cows and pigs take shelter at night,” Nagaland education minister P. Chuba Chang said yesterday.
“You can well imagine the level of education in such an environment where classrooms double as cowsheds and sties.”
Aren't we facing the same problem, albeit with slight difference, that is, we may not be seeing animals in classrooms but the "Pathetic conditions of our schools and universities" and the level of education in such environment where you have students who were forced to accept the offered courses that they do not want, and will not be motivated to study? "Don't blame the students," dear Ministers, as we had been ignorant and naive as students before. Pak-Lah was selected to study economics but opt to Islamic studies after he found that he may not be suited to it. Dr. Siti Hasmah did not do well in medicine and she was lucky there is one guy who helps coach her in her studies -i.e Mahathir! How many are as lucky as her? Our Educational Ministries do not provide an avenue and communication system to brief students on the various courses offered by the universities, what are the potentials and what will be their possible careers. Students are sent to "Serat Kayu" courses without any idea what it is, what is the possible career, and what industry will accept them after graduation and what are the potentials of a Serat Kayu graduate. Many thought that they will end up as carpenters in construction industry, and some hope that they can graduate as "BALAK" bosses. Do we expect them to find out all by themselves? Is this our way of managing the Rakyat? GOD BLESS US!
