Scrap moral studies in favour of Philosophy

PHILOSOPHY is a great way to find meaning in one’s life, explore the deep reaches of the human consciousness, understand what it means to be human and to answer the big questions of life. Yet, this integral part of any holistic education is severely lacking in Malaysia.

The current Moral Studies syllabus is inadequate to provide students with a proper philosophical framework that will teach them critical thinking and allow them to handle life’s difficulties with a greater presence of mind.
