From B. Suresh Ram in Bandung
THE Education Ministry may emulate the model used by Chinese schools for the teaching of Mathematics and Science in national schools.
This followed the good results achieved by Chinese schools in the two subjects in the recent Ujian Pencapaian Sekolah Rendah (UPSR), Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said.

Mr Pua : Inventor of Pen drive
S. INDRAMALAR speaks to the creator of the now indispensable Pen Drive
Fact file
Name: Pua Khein Seng
Age: 31
Hometown: Sekinchan, Selangor
Education: SJKC Yeok Kuan, Sekinchan; Pin Hwa Independent school, Klang; Chiao Tung University, Taiwan
Occupation: Engineer/ president of Phison Electonics Corp
Current base: Taipei , Taiwan
Years abroad: 12
WHEN he set off for Taiwan in 1993, Pua Khein Seng's only aim was to complete his degree in Electrical Control Engineering at the renowned Chiao Tung University and return home to work in Malaysia .
Never did he envision himself heading a multi-million dollar Taiwanese company that developed the world's first USB flash removable disk, which they called Pen Drive .
Pua Khein Seng went to Taiwan to get his engineering degree but ended up staying on, starting his own company and inventing the pen drive.
"I went to Taiwan to pursue my undergraduate degree. I chose Taiwan only because it was too expensive to study either in the United States or Singapore .
"However, I did well in my undergraduate programme and was offered a place to do my masters," explained Pua, who was back in Kuala Lumpur recently for a holiday.
After completing his Masters in July 1999, Pua worked for about six months in a local company before deciding to set up his own venture company with four fellow engineers who had studied with him at Chiao Tung.
"We were confident that we had the know-how and ability to start our own business, which is focused on USB technology. The company is called Phison because there are five of us - two Malaysians and three Taiwanese engineers," said Pua, 31, who hails from Sekinchan, Selangor.
Phison Electronics Corporation was set up in November 2000 and within six months the young entrepreneurs came up with their first invention - a USB storage device called Pen Drive .
"We were the first company in the world to develop the USB Drive SoC (System On Chip) and we were very confident that the market for USB will be huge. At the time, no one believed in us so we had to do everything ourselves - from developing the technology, the chips to the product itself.
"We were only 27 at the time and inexperienced. But we were confident that we could design good systems and chips but we didn't know anything about selling. So, we sought partners or traders who could help sell our products for us," Pua added.
Through smart partnerships and shrewd strategies, Phison soon made its way into European, American and Japanese markets. One quick move was securing Japanese tech giant Toshiba as Phison's largest shareholder and customer.
"We launched Pen Drive in June 2001 and by August the same year, we broke even! From September 2001, we were reaping monthly profits from our invention and there has been no turning back since."
Having established himself in Taiwan , Pua is in the midst of setting up Phison's branch in Malaysia , due to begin operations this
February.
"I am starting a branch in Malaysia because this is my country. I would like to do contribute to its development.
"We have about 100 engineers at Phison in Taiwan , 20 of whom are Malaysians. Though they studied in Taiwan , I had to re-train all the engineers I hire because, like most fresh graduates (in this field), they are not industry-ready upon graduation.
"Unfortunately, some of the Malaysian engineers want to return home after a couple of years because they are homesick, about to start a family and so on. Some prefer to work in Singapore , as it is closer to home. Instead of losing them to competitors, I decided to set up an office in Malaysia where they can still work for me," said Pua.
Another problem faced by returning computer engineers from Taiwan , Pua added, was the lack of job opportunities for hardware engineers in Malaysia .
"There is no environment or support for design engineers here in Malaysia . One of my Malaysian engineers from Phison returned home and ended up as a teacher in a Chinese school! I was shocked and thought, 'After all that training and re-training, he is going to just teach?' I told him to hold on till I open up the Phison branch in Malaysia ."
Though he has been in Taiwan for the past 12 years and married to a Taiwanese, Pua is not sure how much longer he will remain there.
"I have really no idea where I will be in 20 years. Maybe Taiwan , maybe Malaysia , maybe somewhere else ... it all depends on my business. The industry is moving so fast that I cannot predict what or where I will be," he said.
For the moment though, Taiwan is home for Pua, his wife and two children even though he misses the Malaysian way of life.
"I come home once a year for Chinese New Year and will usually stay for about two weeks. There are several things I really miss about Malaysia . One is the food! For the past 12 years I have been craving for Malaysian food ... I miss laksa, curry noodles, chee cheong fun and all the other delicious dishes we have here.
"I also miss the lifestyle and quality of life here. When I come back, I am always amazed to see people hanging out and relaxing at mamak shops at night. In Taiwan , most people would still be at work at that time of the night!
"Before I got married, I used to work for 15 to 17 hours a day, everyday. Now that I have children, my wife has forbidden me to stay so late. Now, I go to work at 9am and come home by 11pm . These hours are quite normal for the Taiwanese."
The man who invented USB pen-drive is a young modest Malaysian who can't even get into a local University but invented the most versatile, indispensable computer peripheral today. And helped his adopted country, Taiwan made $31bil in the process. The rest is history....
党团举潘健成发明随身碟案例
力驳邱家金华小仅出文抄猫论
11月24日 下午1点32分
历史学者邱家金昨日再度语出惊人，抨击华小只能培养“文抄猫”（copy cat）。这番言论立即引起朝野华基政党和华教龙头董教总的一致炮轰。
他们都不约而同地指出，风行全球的随身碟（Pen Drive）发明者潘健成，就是华小和独中毕业生，并以此案例来驳斥邱家金的本土华教不能培育知名科学家的说法。
行动党社青团总团长陆兆福在今天文告说明，“华小的人才四海皆有，邱家金不要因为不知道而说华小没有出人才”。
“发明出全球第一颗USB快闪记忆体（Pen Drive）的潘健成就是华小毕业生。”
挑战邱家金勿使用随身碟
而民青团署理总团长胡栋强（左图）今天也发表文告指出，潘健成“这名扬名国际的发明家是在华文独中毕业”。
他更嘲讽道，邱家金身为一名教授，天天在使用的随身碟，却不知道它就是一名华校生所研发和发明。
“如果邱家金还是坚持华校生就是copy cat，那我请他勿再使用随身碟，因为，他看不起华校生的杰作。”
董教总：成就乃有目共睹
董教总重申，华小毕业生在国内外的优越表现都是大家有目共睹的，不但多次获得国家领导人的赞扬，也得到其他国家的赏识。
“其中新加坡每年都通过各种方法招揽华小和华文独中毕业生前往该国就读，希望可以培养为该国服务的人才，这些事实在在说明了华小在教学上的卓越和成就是值得其他源流学校参考的。”
吁邱家金收回言论和道歉
而胡栋强批评邱家金，虽然身为历史教授， 但从其言论显示他不了解华小历史和动态，却又胡乱的为华小扣帽子。
“本人强烈反对和谴责邱教授的此番言论，并且促请他收回这伤害了千千万万华人的言论。”
而陆兆福（左图）则要求邱家金出示证据，以证明华小生都是“抄袭人才”，否则就必须“在报章公开向全体华小生与华小毕业生道歉”。
完全不懂华教没资格批判
此外，董教总也指出，邱家金本身不是毕业于华文教育体系，不了解华小的教学情况，也没有对华校的教学进行实际的研究，更没有和华教相关团体进行交流，他对华文教育可说是一窍不通。
“作为一个学者，他理应对华小进行研究，真正了解华小的情况后再做评论。遗憾的是，邱家金完全不理会事实，在没有作出研究的情况下就发表狭隘、不符事实和具有误导性的言论。”
同样的，马青联邦直辖区州团长周连琼今天发表炮轰邱家金不了解华文教育，“这样的一个人，没有批判华教的资格”。
“邱家金从未接受华文教育的熏陶，也没对华文教育进行过认真地接触，所以他的想法只是单一方面，而且是偏激的。”
“这名历史学家从未受过华文教育或对它进行认真地接触，他的思想的单一、不全面而且是偏激的；这样的人，有什么资格指着华教说三道四”？
不公平政策导致人才外流
陆兆福说明，潘健成的成功说明华小的教学方式获得认可，只不过由于大马教育制度和社会制度的不公平才导致许多优秀的华小毕业生越洋到海外发展。
“身为一个著名的教授，邱家金更应该我国不公平的教育制度，而不是一直拿华小生来开刀。”
胡栋强也作出相同的质问，“我国华校每年都培育了类似像潘健成这类科技人才，但他们为什么都不在马来西亚？为什么都到国外去呢？”
他认为，这就是大马政府要检讨的地方，“不公平的政策导致无法留住人才”。
“华校并非没有人才，而是毕业自华校的人才都纷纷在国外发展，这在很大的程度上，是受到一些不公平的待遇有关。比如说，华文独中或在中国和台湾的大学文凭，在马来西亚还是无法受到承认。”
言论自由不代表可以伤人
周连琼表示，他认同每个人都有发表个人看法的权利，可是并不等于那些人可以任意发表伤害接受华文教育和认同华教的人们。
“每个人都有发表看法的权利，可是不能接受其他价值观的思维是可悲的，他因无法接受他人价值观而发表伤害民心的做法，我决不苟同；现在的他，可谓是思想僵化的‘古物’了”。
