Yes. reformation needed for our education system

This morning i browse through a section in the New Straits Times. It attracts me so much, as to agree to what the author is saying. The author is proposing that our education system is hectic and lack of fun. This is seen via the Malaysian practice of giving student a bulk of homework, and in addition sending them to tuition classes. And the author did also make a comparison between local and foreign graduates, via his experience as a human resource officer in conducting interviews. It is in his view that local university students are lack of soft skills. In other words they are scared of bringing their opinion forward for others to hear. Yes. I agree that for the time being, most of them are lack of soft skills. It is very important for them to realize that they have been given a bigger chance, when they are destined to continue their higher learning locally. This is because in their own homeland, they have a privilege to lead student communities and organizations, at their respective universities. They are also given a chance to represent their universities at international events, which the other group( which are being send abroad) cant have. Speaking as a local university student, I would say that our higher learning institutions is indeed pressuring students via the courses which are being made compulsory, where that course dont even relate to their career. But in my view, perhaps this would make a particular student to excel as a whole. Maybe it is better for us to put it this way. Hardship before success. Be at the bottom, before you reach the top. It doesnt matter whether you are studying abroad or locally. It is just that you need take your chances and be ambitious. P.S Selamat Hari Raya Maaf Zahir Batin =)
