I'm totally disagree wit the govt. decision..Why must the govt. do that after all they had done to the education system?? now most of the students and parents can accept PPSMI, but now..?? ergghhh! For me, it is a good base for the teachers and students to learn English. Even though its a MUST DO kinda thing, but it is not a negative thing to do, rite??
At first, the govt said English is important, but then they did not act like it. You know wut, for the first time i agreed with our former prime minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamed, about to maintain this policy. He even did a public poll in his blog to get the public reaction about this matter. And guess what?? He got 59734 respondents on that day [i dont remember the date, its in NST]. 85% of them did not support the govt. decision to change the language from English to BM. But the govt could only say that they appreciated all the feedbacks. hemm..[baik tak yah mintak pandangan orang ramai...buang mase jew]

If there's no longer PPSMI, later on when it comes to tertiary level of education, the students have to learn everything in English. If the lecturer gives lecture in Malay, but still the notes or books are in English. We can see how are the students going to struggle for that especially for rural students.
If the govt. said that PPSMI did not achieve their objective, just because the teachers were using bilingual [taught in both language] ,i think its better than teaching totally in BM, because the concerned is to make students and teachers get fluent in speaking English, At least the students can get familiar with the terms and by the way, its one of the learning process and the govt cannot expect the teachers and students can speak in English in short term!!
