Should we learn Math and Science in English or Malay? Why? What's your say?

Hi class,

The goverment is pretty indecisive about the medium of instruction for Maths and Science. Kids in the future will have to learn Math and Science in the Malay Language in primary and secondary school but in university they will learn it in English. What a confusion this will create, don't you think? What language do you think it should be taught in?

Besides that, many educationists feel that learning Math and Science will benefit the country in the long run in terms of creating a more scientific society and to be able to compete globally.
Do you agree? Are there any benefits of learning Math and Science in English?
Any examples from your experience of learning Math and Science in English?

Feel free to comment. Its your opinion ,so express it!
