The Disabled Supported

Disabled people, a group of people that was left behind by societies, are very pity. I take this news because of common sense. I think it's time for us to be more broad-minded and generous.

SHELL Malaysia will set about 10% of its scholarships specifically for disabled students from this year onwards. SHELL will be introducing a new category of scholarships for disabled students in Sabah and Peninsular Malaysia in 2011. The company’s human resource director Leslie Hayward said that “Our normal scholarships are also open to disabled students, but we don’t see these students applying for them,” This might encourage them to be more confident and use this chance to claim up to their dream.

In my mind, I think this is what people around the world especially Thai should think about, it's called "chance". We have to be more open-minded. The disabled people is not dregs of society. What you are is also what they are. We are the same. This news show me that they can learn as same as normal people. What they need is just a chance from us.

Change In The Air

This article is chosen because it's what I'm looking for, Changing in the education system. Nowadays, knowledge is not what you can find only in school, but it's all around. The education system should depend on the situation that occurring in the present time.

Malaysia's education stakeholders made an argument on whether they need the Ujian Pencapaian Sekolah Rendah (UPSR) and Penilaian Menengah Rendah (PMR)examinations should be used or not. Aside from that, They had some arguments on whether the policy on the Teaching of Science and Mathematics in English should be continued or not, and the ongoing problems of heavy school bags.
On June 20, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, Deputy said that the two examinations should be abolished. However, the decision would be made in a month or two, said Muhyiddin, an Education Minister.

The first discussion took place in Putrajaya, and was attended by over 120 people. The discussion focused on how to create a new assessment system that does not just focus on a student’s intelligence quotient (IQ), but develops his character and individual talents.

Comparing with the Thai education system, I think Malaysia had just made a great move by focusing on the student abilities more than knowledge.

Malaysia Defeated India

http://worldcups.co.za/2009/02/campaign-for-netball-at-olympics/
The reason that I choose this news to share my opinion with all of you is that, it's about the woman's competition. I like to follow all the woman's competitions. To cheer them up because at this time, the woman's competition is rely watched.

As expected, Malaysia tried their best to book a seat for Final in the seventh Asian youth girls’ netball championship at the Thyagaraj Sports Complex. By beating India 59-36, Malaysia showed their hot performance on last Friday. Malaysia will take on Sri Lanka in the final of Saturday. However,Sri Lanka is not easy to win for Malaysia. In a match to decide the fifth place, Thailand made a sudden scores in the last few minutes to head Hong Kong but the time's up. Hong Kong got the fifth place after losing all five league matches.

In my mind, Netball is not very popular in Thailand. Few people knows what it is. I think we should learn more about this sport and put more support on this kind of sport.

Modern Technology Should Be Used In Badminton

The reason that I choose this news to write about is because of unfair judging. This kind of sport is depended on lines, win or lose. It's not very fair for anyone to follow what the line judgement said. Technology have to take place in this problem to make a standard of judging.

Lee Chong Wei, Malaysia's badminton player, said that modern technology should be used in judging for present badminton competitions. He hopes that world badminton officials will made some changes on this problem. He also said that because of poor line judging, it is not very easy for him to win this game. However, modern technology had better be applied to avoid this mistake. Unfortunately, world badminton officials reported there will not be any change until the London 2012 Olympics.

Nowadays, modern technology have been called from various sports for helping in judging, such as Basketball, Football, Tennis even Badminton. It shows that new technology is necessary for competition judging in present time.
