PUTRAJAYA: The success and progress of the nation is not determined by the use of the national language alone, Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said. Dr Mahathir, who is the acting Education Minister, said this when he stressed on the importance of teaching Mathematics and Science in English. Elaborating on the teaching or Mathematics and Science in English, Dr Mahathir said both subjects and fields are not the result of the exploration from “our own language”. “Almost all (matters related to Mathematics and Science) are delivered in the English language. And knowledges related to Science arrived at our front are mostly in the English language.
