I think this is a good idea -- Malaysians aren't ready to be considered mature enough not to get hotheaded and act like morons. (A simple look at the state of the Malaysian blogosphere is all you need to get an idea of the typical educated Malaysian's mental state.)John Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16316489754000191267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-1139523953561075442006-02-10T06:25:00.000+08:002006-02-10T06:25:00.000+08:00Frequent student riots in Hong Kong and Taiwan?I'm...Frequent student riots in Hong Kong and Taiwan?<BR/><BR/>I'm almost tempted to reply.Golf Afflictedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16363347839543221577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12123329.post-1139501499145304402006-02-10T00:11:00.000+08:002006-02-10T00:11:00.000+08:00While others might think that UUCA actually supres...While others might think that UUCA actually supress the freedom of students, i think that it is neccessary to maintain the current peaceful environment in the country.<BR/><BR/>Without that, i doubt that we will not ended up like Indonesia, Hongkong and Taiwan, where riots and demonstrations by tertiary students are frequent. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps one may argue that, more freedom will produce creative and smart students but i dont think so. <BR/><BR/>These students are only smart literally, as most of them are not aware of their surroundings. They are easily agitated and being used, thus are easy target by certain irresponsible people to create chaos and problems, or as a tool against the society and government.<BR/><BR/>Although the current government are not that good in some sense, can we promise the next one will be better? The best way is to equip ourselves with the relevant and sufficient knowledges that will allow us to survive anywhere in the world.<BR/><BR/>Do not use those innocent and simple-minded students to achieve your personal goals.<BR/><BR/>-peace-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
