Yoga and Edu System

Of late there are many discussions on yoga and edu system. The fatwa on yoga, according to many discussions, seems to have no fundamental defects or contradictory to the teaching of Islam. The numerous opinions, comments and suggestions given on the said fatwa is more of the type to accomodate the demands of certain qrts - be it from Muslim or nonMuslims. And, to melow down the effects of something new to an item long being practice. Me of the opinion: there shld be no arguement or lengthy comments on the said item bec the said fatwa does not give any effects to the fundamental belief in Islam, and the more "in-fighting amongst the Muslim" on the item will result in highlighting on the nonUnity amongst the Muslims. What is impt. now is to show some semblance of unity during these trying era. As for comments from others it shld be remembered ( in Arabic): lakum di nukum waliyadeen.

As for the suggestion of the new educ system (Sys Persekolahan Malaysia or something like that), there seems to be many comments too. To me this is normal bec any new suggestion or whatever new to be implemented, will not keep the previous status quo - changes will results in negative or positive impacts. So, there will be uproars from qrts who feel they are to be neagatively effected. Just to follow an advice to drink more before strolling in the Mall will give positive and negative impacts too. The good side, its healthy to drink more and avoid dehydration. Negatively, you will need more 30cents changes bec you need to ease yourself often. And the older you are the more frequent the visits, hence the more 30cents needed. Whatever, I think any suggestion shld be base on certain theory or principals so that many will be able to appreciate and be associated with the suggestion to the changes. As in the case of edu system, we shld remember that in Malaysia the learning process is tailored to give the educated a better start in life ie earning wise/economic calculation. Young boys and girls in will go for courses that seems to promise them better income - come what may and dreams careers put aside. So, any suggestion to changes in the edu system with unity intentions in mind, and what other good intentions, if any, shld be base on economic theory of ss and dd. Besides, its more democratic. What I am trying to say and suggest is that: open a new school in every town, and name them GOVT ENGLISH SCHOOLS. Just like the old days. This type of school shld be increased shld there be demands for it and close down if parents really hate it. This will give choice to parents to choose what they want (bearing in mind what the present school is offering and the havoc of halfway english etc). But as stated above, this suggestions too is bound to have positive and negative impacts. Diehard supporters of the present sys will cry foul too. So, its up to majority do decide what they want - democratically of course.
