Speaking at a special meeting with the ministry yesterday, Mahathir said mastery of English was a vital element of education.
"Geography and History can come in any language but Science and Mathematics are not indigenous fields of knowledge, it comes from abroad. "Most of it comes to us in English.

However, it does not mention how or when the new teaching policy would be implemented.
