Mayb that it is because this shows the clock hands well; the problem with that reasoning is it doesn't pass the "beauty in the eye of the beholder" concept. Everyone would have a different perception of what shows off the hands the most. It's a deliberate, non-accidental approach.

Why We Use English for IT in Malaysia???

This is because the whole world uses the language as an information and/or technology language. How dangerous it will be if we try to use Bahasa, especially in school. See example below:-


Hardware = barang keras

Software = barang lembut

Joystick = batang gembira

Plug and Play = cucuk dan main

Port = lubang

Server = pelayan

Client = pelanggan


Try to translate this:

ENGLISH:

That server gives a plug and play service to the client using either hardware or software joystick. The joystick goes into the port of the client.


Now in BAHASA:

Pelayan itu memberi pelanggannya layanan cucuk dan main dengan menggunakan batang gembira jenis keras atau lembut. Batang gembira itu akan dimasukkan ke dalam lubang pelanggan.



Now you know...WHY...
