00:00The English-only policy started to be implemented by the University of Cabuyao in Laguna on Monday.
00:12On their social media page, the police said that their students should be globally competitive and world-class so they should be one of their English-speaking campus.
00:25All transactions or engagements of officials, students, employees, or anyone from the university should be in English and for strict compliance.
00:36The announcement is no longer on their social media page.
00:39Is this why the students are favoring the English-only policy?
00:45It enhances our skills to speak English fluently so that we can develop professionally.
00:55It should be specific, not strict compliance when using English.
01:00Sometimes, when we're in a discussion, we're not fluent in English because it's not our first language.
01:15Maybe they will revise the policy that I will implement.
01:20The group said,
01:22Gabriella Youth? English-only? No way!
01:26It's up to them.
01:28And an indication of how bad the violation of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is.
01:34They said, the English-only policy is not an answer to the growing crisis in the quality of education in the country.
01:41Instead of being like a robot that can speak English fluently,
01:44the students should be taught to be critical thinkers and raise enough funds for education.
01:53According to the Commission on Higher Education Chairman Prospero Devera III,
01:57he talked to the President of the Kabuyaw Government
02:00to understand the basis and intention of the English-only policy.
02:06He also set it up to explain and clarify the issue.
02:10The government is adamant that they will continue the English-only policy in spite of the students.
02:18This is a program just to raise the level of English proficiency in the campus.
02:23There is a study that shows that there is a declining English proficiency in our senior high schools.
02:31Their President also clarified something about the policy.
02:36Actually, what I launched is not really what I call an English-only policy.
02:43What I launched is a program for the Pamantasan ng Kabuyaw to be an English-speaking campus.
