He said science evolved all the time with new research done and new knowledge discovered and 98% of the research papers were written in English. ”If students don’t study science and mathematics in English, it would be difficult for them to catch up with the developments and be competitive for Malaysia to become a developed nation. “I am a Malay. I love my language but the knowledge acquired by my people is priority for me so that we don’t lag behind and unable to compete with others. “Being able to speak Malay is not enough if you don’t have the knowledge. “There’s rapid advancement in knowledge but the Malays will not be able to keep up as the knowledge does not come in the Malay language,” he said. -Bernama
