Throughout my life in tertiary education, there is always this question that surrounds and confuses me.
"Achievements or Values are more important?"
People who commit themselves into tertiary studies because they want a diploma/ degree certification at least, so that they can compete with the fresh graduates outside for a job in future. How many undergraduates actually think of "I study in university because I want to learn the skills that will benefit me in future"? I wonder~ seriously. As I have seen my friends choose electives based on the subjects' course outlines (assignments can be done easily); they don't really judge based on what they want to learn from those subjects. Perhaps this happen more frequent in private universities as students are paying around RM2k for one subject. Hence, grades play crucial roles in this case as students need to repay RM2k over if they fail the subject, and if you score badly- that's it. What I want to say is, most people study for grades, not that they want to learn things from it.

Ms Listen case makes me think of this question even deeper especially when she says "The difference between you and me is I am a degree holder and you are only O level."
- You are a degree holder because you are born earlier than us.
- The whole street is bombarded by degree holders. Degree certification isn't something great nowadays.
- Even our lecturers (Master/ PhD) want us to voice out our opinions but a degree holder shut us up.
- People gain respect, they don't ask for it.
- Ms Listen even shouted at her colleague who is same age as her. You can say you don't need to respect the youngsters but he is elder than you, woman.
Colleague : Can I speak something? (very politely)
Ms Listen : NO! I haven't finish yet! *then continue talking*
People are angry not because the animals facts that you have raised, but your attitude. Despite the facts that you cutting off Ms Bawani's word with your 11 times of "Listen!", grabbing the microphone over to stop her speech, shooting her in front of the public, and not answering any of her questions seriously. You can shoot her but please give some rational reasons. Yes, everyone has problems even animals also have problem; does it mean that we need no to solve these problems coz it will always be there? And bear in mind, those animal problems that you have raised are inherited issues- only God knows the solutions; problems that raised by Ms Bawani are men-related problem- where it was created by men and hence it should be solved by humans as well.
As a degree holder, you failed to answer questions raised by O-level student.

GOSH ! I ended up this post by criticizing the other @@ which I shouldn't really be doing this! But something that I have to say, Malaysia will become worse if the politics keep suppressing us from voice out our opinions and force us to follow those laws blindly. Everybody says CHANGE! But one will never change if he or she doesn't want to get out from the comfort zone. ;)
