UPSR dan PMR.

Even matriculation students know about it.

So, our dearest DPM gave an idea of cancelling UPSR and PMR. Frankly to say, this is a very bad idea. Why?

First, Malaysian students are exam-dependant. From this, I can say that Malaysian students are too depending on their results to further their studies. For example, MRSM and SBP open their entry for standard 6 students who managed to get 5A's in UPSR. How about 4A's? No way lah! So, by cancelling UPSR and PMR, how come MRSM and SBP want to take excellent students? Go through every school in Malaysia?

Second, public exams are made to test students' mastering in every subject. Although I heard that Malaysian public exam is one of the easiest in the world (except STPM), but it is still something important. Let say students are assessed based on their monthly tests, for sure we can see marks that are not good. There is a circumstance where students are not revising a single chapter only but, they are revising the whole syllabus for reason ; lazy.

Third, I want to say something irrelevant here. Tuition centres will go bankrupt. I hope you understand about what I say.

I know that for public exam, trees are cut down so that papers can be made for questions and answers. I also know that nowadays, public exams are free so the government will bear the loss. But don't you think that the loss can bring prosperous to the country? More doctors, engineers, lawyers and even pharmacists can be made just by providing papers of questions and answers.
