Education Minister Tan Seri Muhyddin Yassin's recent announcement at UMNO meeting that the Ministry will implement a new policy in 2013 that History will be a compulsory subject in SPM examination again proved to be a flip-flop policy.
The hasty announcement came as a surprise as it was made during UMNO General assembly but not after the cabinet meeting.
Muhyddin's announcement was made without the consent and knowledge of the education bodies such as NUTP, Dong Chia Zhong etc. It was made even without prior discussion with the Deputy Education Minister, Dato Dr Wee Ka Siong. Muhyddin 's conduct again proved that UMNO's political hegemony had marginalised all other component party in Barisan Nasional. Just imagine Policy can be formulated overnight at political party's meeting but not the legitimate platform such as Cabinet.
It must be noted that at present, almost 30% SPM student failed in History subject. If the new policy were to be implemented in 2013, it means that more than 500,000 students will find their future in limbo and it will be disastrous to them where they will not qualify to any higher learning institution. It is most unfair that the ministry based on a single subject to evaluate the student's academic performance. The Ministry had also failed to learn from the past mistake where RM5.2 billion was spent to teach science & mathematic in English but later only found it to be a complete failure.

吡州行动党秘书兼太平区国会议员倪可敏今日指副首相兼教育部长丹斯里慕尤丁在巫统大会宣佈政府將在2013年把历史科列为大马教育文凭(SPM)必须及格科目再度暴露了政府朝令夕改的施政，甚至与教育部大蓝图不以考试为本的理念自打咀巴。
倪可敏也指出，丹斯里慕尤丁在巫统大会宣佈教育部新政策而非通过内阁会议也显示巫统不尊重马华部长，完全不把国阵其他成员党放在眼里。“连身为副教育部长的拿督魏家祥在事前也不知情，这是什么“朝中有人好办事”？”
倪氏直言，在慕尤丁作出这项“心血来潮”的决定时，上至副教育部长、全国教专、国民型中学校长理事会乃至董教总全部皆被蒙在鼓里，这种黑箱作业的方式令人震惊。随着这项新政策，SPM考生除了马来文外，历史科也必须及格才能获得文凭。
倪可敏也是班台州议员。他表示，行动党不希望看到广大考生因为一门历史科不及格而无法取得教育文凭，因為这势将影响到数十万计的学生无法继续升学，造成莫大恐慌。他指出，根据SPM历史科目的及格率，于2008及2009年，历史科不及格的学生人数高达近三成，乡区更有32%学生历史科不及格。在新政策下，超过50万名学生将无法继续升学。
倪氏指出，政府这项有关公共考试的措施完全缺乏全盘考量，因为“一科历史科定江山”的政策根本无法全面和平衡地评估学生的表现。有些理科生在其他科目表现优异但可能无法掌握历史科，教育部绝不能以单一科目决定学生的命运！
倪氏也强调，现今历史教科书的内容也无法反映事实。世界文明史被记载成囘教文明史、马共抗日被描绘成恐佈份子等都反映了教育部的课本缺乏客观。他呼吁教育部从长计议，先与教育团体展开对话；同时吸取政府倉促推行用英语教数理政策过后却失败的教训，避免百万名学生再度成为试验室的白老鼠。
倪可敏今日于此间出席行动党基层领袖交流会后向媒体发文告如是表示。
