Dear Editor‚ I agree with the article “Testing times for NAPLAN” that the NAPLAN testing in which a million students in years 3‚5‚7 and 9 undertake numeracy and literacy tests should be banned .

NAPLAN will not improve Australia’s education system‚ indeed it is making it worse. Teachers do not get the chance to see

Should the burqa be banned? Founding father‚ Patrick Henry exclaimed‚ “…give me liberty or give me death” in a speech to fellow Virginia colonials in 1775. His words are just as pertinent now as they ever were. Countless news stories over the past year about France and other European countries outlawing burqas in public have left me conflicted. The burqa is a long‚ head to toe garment worn by many Muslim women in public. These bans also include the niqab‚ which covers the face‚ and is part

All violent and horrifying programming shouldn’t be banned from network TV. When experiencing a horror movie‚ it is designed to scare them‚ to drive their fear of the dark‚ and to make anyone take a second glance when they’re walking home alone at night.

Should Singlish be banned? Singlish has become the word of the tongue in Singapore. Walk along any street in Singapore‚ it is inevitable that you will hear someone speaking Singlish. Singlish‚ being one local feature of Singapore‚ is a language compromising of English-based language mixed with Chinese dialects as well was a few Malay.
