YOURSAY ‘This is not the first leak and neither will it be the last...’
Second UPSR paper leaked in two days
CQ Muar: This isn't the first time examination question papers have been leaked. This had happened on a number of occasions in the past.
This goes to show the competency of the Education Ministry headed by our very own Deputy Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin. This clearly reflects his ability, let alone his academic prowess to handle such a ministry.
I agree with Malaysiakini commenters that those who failed miserably in their line of duty ought to emulate the CEO of MRT Corp Azhar Abdul Hamid - tender their resignation with immediate effect.
AntiRacial: The desire of the government to introduce the school-based assessment was to reduce the focus on examinations and avert such incidents, said Second Education Minister Idris Jusoh.
Is the minister is trying to say there is no way to conduct examinations without questions being leaked? Is he also trying to say in other countries there are also examination paper leaks?
Ratbatblue: The staff of the section printing and distributing the exam papers should be made to take oaths of secrecy so that these things do not recur.
It is usually the lower echelon staff who handle these papers, and at any time, while printing, for example, questions could be noted down (before the bundles were sealed) and disseminated nationwide in a matter of hours.
Also, there should be more than one set of question papers on standby so that in the event of any untoward incident, a random set could be used to replace the leaked one.
Not Smart: The government spends so much money on the Government Transformation Programme and this is the outcome of it.
This is clearly not the defects of the processes or systems but the defects of the people who are vested with the responsibility to carry out their duties.
If the heads of departments cannot manage the defects of the people, the country will continue to decay and deteriorate.
Mr KJ John: ‘Harap pagar; pagar makan padi.’ The education minister must resign for this failure.
Abasir: They will push the resident hand-kisser to the front to face angry parents and students while the other two nincompoops cower in the background.
This is not the first leak and neither will it be the last... and you may be triply reassured that no one will be held accountable. In fact, the ministers will be tripping over one another to say how this is no big deal and that it is only the opposition that is making noise.
CHKS: If the ministry can't even handle UPSR level, can we have any hope in PMR, SPM, STPM? No wonder education standard keeps dropping.
People are more interested in looking good, schools are more obsessed with getting strings of As from their students, some staff are too greedy for quick bucks, rather than proper educational assessment.
Anonymous_3f6d: The BN government is trying to teach our children the facts of life in Malaysia at an early stage. Bravo!
Muhyiddin cries sabotage over UPSR leak
Malaccan: The DPM thinks he is the target of the leaks? How much more self-centred can he be? What about the children who are traumatised and their parents, too?
Instead of egoistically thinking of himself, it’s better for him to do something about the appalling education system, including the manner public exams are conducted.
The Education Ministry has always been helmed by a senior politician because it is a key ministry in shaping the future of the nation. The DPM is obviously not up to the mark.
He should be divested of his many responsibilities and the Education Ministry should go to someone who can give the time, priority and talent so badly needed.
It isn't so much that leaks have happened before, but rather they continue to happen now.
WTFF: Leakages of public examination questions have become a common occurrence.
There is no more integrity in the government examination system not only because of perennial leakages but also because of the extreme generosity of the government in dishing out thousands of distinctions in various subjects to the extent that even the undeserving scored distinctions.
For example, we have students scoring distinctions in English who cannot string together one grammatically correct sentence.
Coming back to the leakages, each time after such leakages were discovered, the education minister would vow to take action to prevent future leakages. And without fail, the leakages will recur year after year.
In any other country, the education minister would have been sacked. Only in this blessed land that the minister does not take responsibility and resign but instead blames other people for sabotaging his reputation.
Siang Malam: Muhyiddin, how do we tell the nine-year-old kids you were sabotaged? It is easier if we tell them that you screwed up. -Mkini
