REFER to the comments made by the Kulim Bandar Baharu MP who said that Filipinos speak English but could only get work as maids.
For your information, Sir, some of us became maids simply because we are poor and have no means to further our studies.
In some cases, like Filipino nurses working as maids, it is because there are limited opportunities in our country and going out to work offers us better chances to earn higher wages.
And so Mr MP, I think it’s very naive of you to say that we are incapable of doing great jobs and yet we can speak English. And comparing us to Japan? What are you talking about? Japan is an industrialised country!
I feel sorry for those who are willing to improve their knowledge by learning English because individuals like you are a hindrance to their efforts. With due respect, Sir, you are a perfect example of someone who doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
OFFENDED FILIPINO MAID,
Malacca.
I love the letter above. Its a perfect letter to hit somebody right in between the nuts. If one would understand English, actually one don't have to have a strong command of English to understand. Its very straight froward. I quote back part of the article
Kita telah melihat banyak bangsa yang langsung tidak menggunakan bahasa Inggeris sebagai bahasa ilmu namun berjaya dipersada pentas keilmuan dunia. Lihat sahaja bangsa Jepun, berapa ramai tokoh ilmuan dan saintis mereka yang menerima anugerah kehebatan duniawi termauk Anugerah Nobel sedangkan mereka sepatah bahasa inggeris pun tidak mereka ketahui.
Sebaliknya kita lihat bangsa Filipina contohnya yang begitu fasih berbahasa inggeris tetapi sekadar berjaya mengekspot ramai pembantu rumah!
What a dumb comparison or metaphor to use. Don't you know that not everybody has the privilege like you to finish your studies overseas and get a degree.
I just have two words for you Bodoh!!!
