PPSMI is about the learning of SCIENCES and MATHEMATICS using the English Language in primary as well as secondary schools...
the objective of PPSMI is so that children will graduate from schools with a high COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE; henceforth CAN COMPETE GLOBALLY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CAREER...
PPSMI is thought of, brainstormed, sowed, planted, executed, cared for, and defended by 1Malaysia's POLITICAL LEADERS...
if one learns SCIENCES, then SCIENTIFIC names and terms will be learned...
if one learns MATHEMATICS, then MATHEMATICAL terms will be learned...
therefore, the schoolkids may learn of SCIENTIFIC and MATHEMATICAL names and terms which are taught in ENGLISH (and no longer recognize those same terms in Bahasa Malaysia)...
for example, they may know words like test tube (no longer 'tabung uji'), ultra violet (no longer 'lampau ungu'), density (no longer 'ketumpatan'), dan differentiation (no longer 'pengkerbedaan')...
furthermore, they may also know names and terms like biology (no longer 'biologi'), physics (no longer 'fizik'), mathematics (no longer 'matematik'), photosynthesis (no longer 'fotosintesis'), hydrocloric acid (no longer 'asid hidroklorik'), trajectory (no longer 'trajektori'), calculus(no longer 'kalkulus'), negative (no longer 'negatif'), graph (no longer 'graf'), statistics (no longer 'statistik'), and hundreds maybe thousands more SCIENTIFIC and MATHEMATICAL names and terms in ENGLISH which they may learn, know and understand; hence, they achieve a high level of COMMAND OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE; thereby, ABLE TO COMPETE GLOBALLY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CAREER!!!
oh, but what if some of these kids (or more than half of them) get out from their schooling years and decide to choose a career OUTSIDE OF THE SCIENCES LINE (and mathematics line as well, since generally mathematics is closely affiliated with sciences) - for examples, jobs as politicians, singers or artists (when we talk about politicians, quite often we link them to artists too), painters, writers, journalists, and lawyers???

PPSMI adalah pembelajaran SAINS dan MATEMATIK menggunakan Bahasa Inggeris di sekolah2 rendah mahupun menengah...
tujuan PPSMI ialah supaya murid2 mengakhiri persekolahan dengan PENGUASAAN BAHASA INGGERIS yang tinggi lalu dapat BERSAING SECARA GLOBAL DALAM KERJAYA MASING2...
PPSMI dicetus, difikirmasak, dibenih, ditanam, dilaksana, dijaga dan dipertahan oleh PEMIMPIN2 POLITIK 1Malaysia...
kalau belajar SAINS, maka nama2 dan perkataan SAINTIFIK bakal dipelajari...
kalau belajar MATEMATIK, perkataan2 MATEMATIK dipelajari...
maka murid2 tersebut mungkin kenal nama2 dan perkataan SAINTIFIK dan MATEMATIK yang diajar dalam Bahasa Inggeris (bukan lagi mengenali perkataan2 sama dalam Bahasa Malaysia)...
contohnya, mereka mungkin kenal perkataan2 seperti test tube (bukan lagi 'tabung uji'), ultra violet (bukan lagi 'lampau ungu'), density (bukan lagi 'ketumpatan'), dan differentiation (bukan lagi 'pengkerbedaan')...
tambahan lagi, mereka juga mungkin mengenali nama2 dan perkataan seperti biology (bukan lagi 'biologi'), physics (bukan lagi 'fizik'), mathematics (bukan lagi 'matematik'), photosynthesis (bukan lagi 'fotosintesis'), hydrocloric acid (bukan lagi 'asid hidroklorik'), trajectory (bukan lagi 'trajektori'), calculus(bukan lagi 'kalkulus'), negative (bukan lagi 'negatif'), graph (bukan lagi 'graf'), statistics (bukan lagi 'statistik'), dan ratusan mungkin ribuan lagi pelbagai nama dan perkataan SAINTIFIK dan MATEMATIK dalam Bahasa Inggeris yang mungkin mereka pelajari, kenali dan fahami, lantaran mereka mencapai tahap PENGUASAAN BAHASA INGGERIS yang tinggi lalu dapat BERSAING SECARA GLOBAL DALAM KERJAYA MASING2!!!
oh, tapi bagaimana kalau sebahagian daripada murid2 tersebut (atau lebih dari setengah dari kalangan mereka) keluar dari alam persekolahan lalu memilih KERJAYA DI LUAR BIDANG SAINS (dan bidang matematik juga, kerana amnya matematik berkait rapat dengan bidang sains) - contohnya kerjaya sebagai politikus, penyanyi atau artis (bila menyebut tentang ahli politik, kerap juga kita kaitkan dengan golongan artis), pelukis, penulis, wartawan dan peguam???
