NAJIB GROVELS BUT IT’S TOO LITTLE TOO LATE: FROM ‘APA LAGI CINA MAHU’, PM NOW PROMISES TO PRESERVE CHINESE SCHOOLS AS GE14 NEARS

KUALA LUMPUR― Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak today listed out his government and his personal contributions to local education in the Chinese language.
Najib told the ethnic Chinese community that he understood that having quality education and preserving Chinese education was one of the priorities for them.
“We are the only country outside mainland China which allows for Chinese education as part of the national education.
“And that is a commitment given by the Barisan Nasional government,” he said at a grand Chinese New Year celebration attended by 118 local Chinese associations.
Najib said he had previously as the Education Minister removed the “tool or weapon” that allowed the education minister to convert Chinese-medium schools into national schools, by scrapping Section 21(2) of the Education Act 1961 “once and for all”.
“That was my contribution when I was minister of education,” he said, further noting that he had as prime minister given special allocations annually in the government’s budget for Chinese primary and secondary schools.
“When MCA, Gerakan met me, I ordered them ― where there is population growth, where there is an increase in demand in Chinese schools, we should allow new Chinese schools to be constructed.
“We shouldn’t deprive them, we shouldn’t make it difficult for them to have the education they want,” he said, adding that the government settled on a “10+6” formula by adding 10 new schools and relocating six schools and had also resolved the shortage of teachers at Chinese schools.
He also said the government has delivered a strong economy for Malaysians, having noted the desire by the Chinese community to have economic opportunities and prosperity.
He said the BN-led government had since the nation’s independence delivered the Chinese community’s wish for political stability and racial harmony in a peaceful country, adding that the interracial harmony continues to be “an important facet of our political system and the Malaysian way of life”.
“That’s why, we must ensure that whatever we have inherited will continue, not only continue, but to be further strengthened, because if we have peace, harmony and stability, the people will prosper,” he said.
“As your prime minister, I pledge to continue policies that are fair, moderate, progressive and inclusive so that we will develop a Malaysian way of life that is unique to us. Nobody can say there is another country like Malaysia,” he later added.
He also singled out good Malaysia-China ties as the fourth priority of the local ethnic Chinese community, saying that the bilateral relationships under his administration between the two countries was at a peak.
