Our colonial fathers, a.k.a the British, implemented a “Divide and Rule” policy to ensure obedience and disunity among the pre-independence inhabitants of Malaysia.

My girlfriend asked me to take a look at this site on KPLI (Kursus Perguruan Lepasan Ijazah), which in English means Post Degree Teacher’s Training. In Malaysia, hundreds of people sit for this examination every month, which is mandatory for all primary / secondary school teachers in public schools in Malaysia.. Apparently, it’s really difficult [...]
