"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have been listening to both sides of the House and it looks like we are missing something fundamental and very important, namely; language is the basis of culture. Secondly, it is a proven fact of science by us doctors, that a child who has been exposed to only one language in the first five years of life, when you teach him or her a second language, that child is usually a better student. So I just thought I would help the House by saying that, let us not be so excited about English to the extent that we forget the language which is the basis of our culture. Secondly, let us allow our children in the first five years of life to enjoy their mother tongue and then they go to school and learn better."
