any challenges in their life. In brief, study aboard encourage students to stand on their own two feet.

compare similarities and differences before deciding where to go. However if financial condition is allowed,
study aboard will be a better option since it provides students with global perspectives, and thus better
prepares for leading in global independent society. Even though higher cost is required, but it is an

State why road accident happen and the solution. OR
The road accident happen due to human factor, do you agree?
Malaysia is a small country, yet it calks up an alarmingly high number of road accidents every year. There
are many reasons for this but they may be narrowed down to two main ones.
Firstly, being an increasingly prosperous nation, its citizens can afford to buy vehicles such as motorcars,
motorcycles and vans. With so many millions of vehicle using the same limited mileage roads, it is no
wonder that motor accidents will occur.
The second reason for road accidents is the attitude of Malaysian drivers. It is well-known that although
Malaysians are normally kind and generous, they transform into different beings once behind the wheel.
Many of them break traffic rules, run red lights, speed, overtake, queue jump and bully whenever there is a
chance to do so. Malaysian motorists do not seem to mind being paralyzed, maimed or killed. You only live
once seems to be their motto. Many accidents are also caused by bald tyres and faulty brakes and lights.
Having analyzed the main causes of road accidents, the next step is to propose solutions to prevent there
mishaps. First, the number of vehicles on the road should be controlled. The fewer cars there are on road, the
lesser the chances of vehicles knocking into each other. This has proven successful in Singapore where the
number of vehicles enter the city are limited because motorists have to pa hefty sum every them.
Furthermore, the island nation has one of the best public transportation systems in the region, so its citizens
dont actually need to own car. If Malaysians adopted to the same policies and improved on its public
transportation systems, there would be fewer accidents on the road.
Another solution would be educating Malaysian motorists to better drivers. Basic common courtesy should
also be inculcated in them. There lesson can be presented I campaign via the mass media.
There should also be more traffic policemen on surveillance duties so that motorists are kept on their toes.
Deterrent punishment should also be meted out to traffic offenders. Finally, the government should spare no
expense in improving the road conditions of the country.
The crime rate of Malaysia increase because of foreigners, do you agree?
Crime rates in Malaysia have skyrocketed due to the presence of foreigners. They are involved serious
crimes such as causing death, manslaughter, bodily injuries and using firearms and other weapons. The
police cannot do much as there is no proper identification of illegal immigrants who come into the country
on the pretext of looking for jobs.
Wayside robberies, extortions, gang-rapes, drug smuggling and human trafficking are common due to the
presence of foreigners. Counterfeit currency has affected the image of Malaysia. Illegals form the African
sub-continent are responsible for forgery and counterfeiting.
Immigrants from neighboring countries who enter Malaysia illegal are involved in vehicle thefts, violent
bank robberies and burglaries. These criminals do not fear the police because they are heavily armed and
some of them have served the armed forces in their respective countries.
Vice activities are thriving due to the presence of China dolls who enter using tourists visas and play their
flesh trade. These sex workers are carriers of sexually transmitted diseases and put the lives and healthy of
Malaysians in danger. Illegal gambling and prostitution dens are mushrooming everywhere due to the
foreigners.
Many foreigners have the expertise of forging Malaysian passports and identify cards. Numerous cases of
forgery have affected the local people where there have been identification thefts which resulting in frauds
and economic loss. The innocent Malaysians become easy victims of these crooked minded foreigner who
will stop to all levels to get their ways.
Cases of kidnapping and abduction have risen as foreign students victimize local students. This is serious
threat to the safety of all Malaysians. Middle eastern men have sweet talked Malaysian women into drug
mules with promises of love, luxury and wealth. These gullible women are behind bars locally and in foreign
countries. More women will become easy victims if we do not nip the problem in the bud.
Foreign confidence trickster have lured local women in to the flesh trade too. The increase in crimes
involving arson, vengeance and impersonation is also due to the presence of foreigners. Illegal Myanmaris
have stayed protests and burnt down detention camp in their fight to stay in Malaysia permanently. Most of
them carry forged United Nations refugee cards and are involving in drug dealing as well as robberies.
South Americans have been involved in burglaries in condominiums and luxury apartments. They are known
to be cat burglars who scale high-rise buildings to carry thefts.
Malaysians need to be vigilant at all times now for the presence of foreigners has put their lives in danger. It
would immediate and appropriate action like what the Royal Malaysia police did by arresting the fanatical
foreign sect leader and his members in Gombak, Kuala Lumpur recently.
Happy healthy families are important to the well-being of a progressive nation because such families nurture
their children towards becoming healthy well adjusted adults. Many families appear to be happy but they are
in fact dysfunction as basic psychological needs are not met. Parents do not respect each other nor their
children. In the shadow of such negative parenting, children grow up hurting, ashamed, emotionally abused
and lacking self worth.
What makes a happy family? Topping the list is communication. Families must connect and talk to each
other. Children must be allowed to express their ideas and feelings. In response, parent must acknowledge
and show their appreciation for the effort made. At the same time, communication between spouses must be
open and honest, tempered with patience and understanding. The family should learn to laugh with each
other and not at each other.
Healthy families respect each other. They give respect and receive respect in return. Respecting another
members point of view, even though it is different from ones own, is important. Members of family do not
put down one another in front of friends and strangers. Each is a unique individual with his own desires and
wants. Respecting these desires and wants requires accommodation, and adoption of give-and-take attitude.
Making time for each other is another priority. Parents must make time for their children and each other.
Work and other activities must not be allowed to encroach into family time. Family time is very precious.
Having dinner together daily or setting aside Saturday or Sundays are pockets of time that can ensure family
togetherness.
Healthy families are not caught up in an overly competitive spirit of raising children to be the brightest, the
prettiest, the biggest, and the most popular while neglecting other aspects such as emotional well-being.
Healthy families raise their children to be concerned about others, particularly the less fortunate. Giving
freely of their time and themselves are some expression of this concern.
Cultivating a strong sense of responsibility is another characteristic of happy healthy families. A sense of
personal responsibility and obligation towards others is stressed. Attending to a simple chore for a sibling or
undertaking a task for a friend must ne carried out with equal responsibility.
And finally, healthy families build strong moral and spiritual foundation. Parents must be diligently play
their role in overseeing a childs continued contact with religion. Encouraging children to join civic
organization such as the Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, the Red Crescent movement, etc, will help to instill
children moral qualities of kindness, responsibility, courtesy, cooperation, respect for the environment and
helping the less fortunate.
Malaysian currently have health problem, state how to make us healthy.
Our growing affluence and over-dependence on automation have caused us to lead almost sedentary
lifestyles in claustrophobic air-conditioned offices and homes. With tight working schedules, endless
appointments, daily meetings and the paper chase, exercise seems to be monotonous chore. The increasing
demands made upon us by out work, studies and families leave us with little time for pleasure and leisure
and the need to exercise becomes a bitter pill to swallow. Nonetheless, health experts prescribe exercise as a
prerequisite for a long, healthy life a life free from diseases and ailments.
Physical exercise is not only stimulates and develops muscle, it has host of other benefits. Regular exercise
can prevent obesity. When we exercise, our bodies burn up all the extra calories which would otherwise be
converted into fat and lead to unwanted bulges. Being overweight also carries with it a number of other
health complications, so, exercising not merely keep us trim, it also keeps away weight-related problems.
Exercise improves blood circulation which, in turn, provides constant nourishment to the millions of cells in
our body. As physically exertion takes place, the rate of breathing increases. Thus, the capacity of blood to
carry oxygen is increases. At the same time, it helps the body to get rid of harmful carbon dioxide.
Vigorous exercise also eliminates modern-day stress. The number of people suffering from insomnia is on
the rise. The increasing pressure and nagging worries of work and study often keep us awake at night. For
many of us, the dawn of the new day brings no cheer. Exercise can be instrumental in helping a person
obtain a more relaxed sleep. A tired person will be refreshed and high-spirited after a good nights sleep. A
few hours of exercise will help in getting sound sleep and is the perfect, soothing balm for a tired body and a
restless mind.
Increasing affluent has cause changes I our eating habit We indulge in rich food, high in calories and
cholesterol. Medical evidence substantiates the fact that exercise can significantly lower the levels of sugar
and cholesterol in our bodies. In other words, consistent physical activity can actually provide relief from
ailments such as hypertension, diabetes and heart disease.
The benefits of exercise are many. A person who exercises regularly has good health and more vitality than a
person who does not.

their homeland. There will not be any migration to other countries for they will be satisfied and happy with
the local conditions and situations.

Advantage and disadvantage allowing mobile phones to be brought to school.
In more recent times, the same anxiety greeted the advent of computers, especially the internet. Today, the
internet has become an essential tool and we cannot imagine a life without it. Like the computer, the mobile
phone has many advantages, while an abuse of it can have disastrous results. Mobile phones are useful tools
of communication. Parents and children can keep in touch with each other and any last minute change of
plans can be conveyed easily without any trouble either party. Some children however, cite this as loss of
privacy as parents will have 24 hours access to their children.
Parents say mobile phone is more than a convenience it is an essential item that can function as a tracker
device. With it they can monitor their children and check o their whereabouts via satellite. Thus, wherever
they are, parent can ensure the safety of their children and avoid incidents like kidnapping, rape and other
such crimes.
Education Ministry officials, school authorities and many parents believe that allowing mobile phones in
schools would only widen the disparity between the haves and the have-nots among students. Mobile phone
come in variety of shapes, colours and functions: from generic ones to highly sophisticated smartphones.
Not every child in school comes from middle or upper class families that can afford to buy each child mobile
phones. The self-esteem of children who do not own a mobile phone or who possess a basic one will be
affected.
Low self-esteem among students would causes rift among children. Cliques, jealousy and rivalry would
result. This unhealthy situation should not be nurtured in a school. Instead, the school environment should
promote equal opportunities and equal treatment.
Another reason for the strong outcry against students to bring mobile phones to school is the distraction is
poses. SMS text, games and ringing tones are some of the distractors that take the students attention away
from the lesson. Children, being children, will not a able to resist the temptation of answering calls and
sending messages when they should be listening to the teacher or completing their written work. Even if the
school authorities ban the use of mobile phones during classes, the games available on the phone is
something the students would resort to classes to overcome boredom.
Apart from diverting students attention, the mobile phone can be threaten the validity of school
examinations. Students may cheat during examination via text message. Information or answers can be
passed from one student to the next while examiners may be totally oblivious of the heating that happens.
Finally, even adults find it hard to exercise social etiquette in the use of mobile phones, therefore children
cannot be expected to do any better. Despite explicit message in movie theaters, at meetings and at formal
meetings, we still hear phones ringing away. School administrator and discipline teachers would find it
difficult to effectively prohibit students from using their phones during lessons.
If the Ministry of Education lifts ban on mobile phones, schools may come up with new rules or guidelines
to control the use of the mobile phone. Inevitably, teachers will be burdened with the task of monitoring ile
phone use and misuse of the mobile phone. All this is additional stress for teachers who are already loaded
with heavy responsibility.
In short, undeniable mobile phones bring lot of conveniences. However, allowing young students to bring
mobile phones is still unnecessary. For them, mobile phones are just mainly entertainment and showing-off
tools. Perhaps authorities can make a slight change on the rule, for example merely allowing students of
secondary schools to bring mobile phones, instead of including the primary schools students.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MOTIVATION or
EFFECT OF MOTIVATION ON STUDENTS
WHY STUDENTS NEED MOTIVATION
or
It cannot be denied that a positive mind can create wonders in life. Between the impossible and the possible
is a measure of a mans mind. Therefore, philosophers. psychologists, consultants and professionals agree
that a certain level of motivation is indeed necessary for willpower to achieve the best due to the peer
pressure, environmental problems where they live and other factors which embrace neglect, negative
thinking, diffident, and phobia.
Students have the misconception that they are incapable of passing with flying colours because they have
failed in the class test or monthly examinations. Students do not realize their potential, in born talent and
capability due to the lack of exposure and guidance. Therefore, these students need motivation to do their
best level in life. Thomas Alva Edison failed many times in inventing light bulb but he motivated himself
and never rested on his laurels until he succeeded.
When Viking Oven company founder went around getting manufacturers build his oven nobodies give him a
second thought. All manufacturers did not believe that such a oven can be made and sold. The pioneer
decided to manufacture on his own by pulling all the resources within a year, all bakeries and
confectioneries were ordering the Viking ovenettes which proved to be for superior to its contemporary
brands.
No one Is born with inadequacy. Everyone is born equal and students need to made aware that they can
achieve anything when they put in their heart and soul to it. It cannot be denied that motivated students well
discover their inclinations and go to great height in life.
Good motivation allows students to accept a failure as a stepping stone to success. Quest and enthusiasm are
created due to motivation. Highly motivated individuals like Abraham Lincoln, Alexander Graham Bell. Dr
David Living Stone, Bill Gates and Mahatma Gandhi did not mince their words and prove the superiority to
the world.
No one can deny that motivation can create students with vitality and vigor that they never knew before.
Motivation creates heroes out of cowards and makes mediocre students to become outstanding performers in
life.
Motivated students will not be weak-mind. However, they will have nerves of steel and great will power to
overcome all the obstacles in life. Students need proper motivation in order to survive in this world which is
full of trial, tribulations and negativity. A little motivation will go a long way in making individuals to be
great leaders.
