We accept the MCA challenge and we agree and undertake to build a new chinese School in Bercham Ipoh. 20/12/2007

Bercham a suburb in Ipoh is one of the fastest growing areas in Perak. Infact about 20 years a go Bercham was a thinly populated farming area. Today it has a 100,000 population, 90 per cent of them Chinese. Currently Bercham has a Chinese school which is badly overcrowded. It has a total of 3,300 students, 120 and 38 classrooms and an average 50 students to a class although the recommended student rate is 24.
This itself shows the urgent need for a school in Bercham.

Although parents and the local people have requested for a new Chinese school for many years but the authorities and the MCA have been keeping mum on this issue most important issue. The question is why?
On Dec 8th I issued a statement urging the relevant authorities to urgently build a new Chinese school in Bercham. Immediately Perak State Exco member Ho Chang Wang retorted that a new Chinese is in the pipeline in Bercham. He said a Chinese school would be closed in Taiping as the Taiping school population has been dropping and it only has a few students now.

The urgent question is why one school has to be closed before a new one is open?
On Dec 10th MCA Bercham assemblyman Gooi Seng Teik said there is no available place for the construction of Chinese school in Bercham unless a private land owner donates a piece of land for this purpose.

Has Gooi done his home work to confirm whether there is no land reserved for the construction of a school?
Gooi has been sleeping on his job and totally unaware that is a piece of land has been reserved and located in a housing area near Bercham for a school to be build.

On Dec 13th YB Ho Chang Wang issued a statement challenging me to take responsibility to build a new Chinese school.
Is Ho saying that he or the government is not in a position to build a new school? Why are the authorities shrinking in their duty towards the people. Or is it a case where Ho is just a lame duck in the government where the decision to built a new school is dependent on UMNO’s approval ?

When I raised the issue of building of new Chinese school in Bercham in Parliament the government stated that no new Chinese or Tamil school would be built under the 9thMalaysia plan. Why is this so?
The DAP is willingly and accepts the challenge by Ho. We want YB Ho to get the government approval to build this school as soon as possible. Since YB Ho is in the government I challenge him to get the necessary approval to build the school within 14 days from the date hereof. Will the MCA able to do this or they have to get UMNO’s approval?

Upon approval by the relevant authorities, I give my personal undertaking to build the school the soonest possible with the support of the people.

“The urgent question is why one school has to be closed before a new one is open?
————————————————————
Actually, it is an open secret that if you ever hear a new chinese or tamil school that’s going to be build by the government, it is because another chinese or tamil school that would be shutdown. So it’s actually shutting down one school in order for another school to be build. It’s their dirty little secret when the government publicly announced chinese or tamil school would be build. So can you imagined, for every 50 chinese and tamil schools the government promised they would build, 50 chinese and tamil existing schools would be shutting down.(Excuse for the shutting down would always be not enough students to form the classes, lack of teaching staffs for these schools and etc.)

And no allocation to build chinese and tamil schools under the 9th Malaysia Plan, right? And what does that tell you and I?

“On Dec 13th YB Ho Chang Wang issued a statement challenging me to take responsibility to build a new Chinese school.”

Yeah right, Mr. Ho should take the take the liberty to resign first and the other BN MPs next; and see what YB Kula can do to fill his shoes if DAP form the next government!
