My opinion on teaching science and maths in english

I think teaching science and maths in english is ridiculous.If the government wants students to excel in english,they should focus in the english subject itself.I debated with my friend as she disagrees with my opinion.
Bahasa Malaysia is a malaysian culture and it needs to stay that way until the end of time.Hang Tuah once said "Takkan Melayu Hilang Di Dunia Ini" but if it stays like this,someday the news headline will report "The Malays are gone".
English is a very good language indeed but we should only learn this as a second or third language.Some of my friends are malay but i rarely hear them talk a single word of BM.This will be a problem someday as none of the people in Malaysia can talk BM and it will be an ancient language.
We once fought the British in the 1880's but now,we are more becoming like them.In the 18th century,Malays who obey the British are marked as a traitor and called 'Anjing penjajah.
Think of the poor villagers who struggle to teach or learn science and maths.Even the famous A. Samad Said rebelled against the decision to teach science and maths in english.
