hence even having the exam 10 days after the holiday wouldn't make a difference.
Fair to take O-level maths exam just after Deepavali?

How to have a heart when the date changes? To cater for them by changing dates you will end up screwing up the rest of the students.

According to sense who cares about the majority students? You only need to have a heart for minorities.

I did not suggest that Exam Board should do a change for 2011 as that will affect the majority which is worse. Rather for future years to come (more specifically, 2012 onwards), the exam board to consider a more optimal subjects scheduling.
Maths is a compulsory subject thus affecting all students. To minimise impact to those who celebrate Deepavali (or religious holidays), to consider arranging Language subjects or non-compulsory subjects after/around the holiday.

Not fair at all. Should cancel or postpone Deepavali.
Eh, hello, are you reading? It's not the Exam Board's fault. It's Deepavali's fault. Else I agree with you - put Religious Knowledge or Chinese and Malay (but not Tamil) the day after Deepavali.

It's never the keling's fault it's always something else.

She should just point the blame on those dumbo Hindu Priests who did the Deepavali calendar...No point KPKB to all Govt boards... Its either Deepavali or doin her O'Level paper... If she not happy, then she can go to India and take her mother language paper there...

Malay calender same as lunar calender. U never study properly. Every year Islam only have 12 month lunar.
Where Chinese every 5 year have 2 extra month.
Do a study on the calender and then tell me is there any different Islam calender with Chinese.

I offer one solution. The Indian community should solve their own problem. If their own holiday can cause them to fail maths, then apply to government to change their holiday to another day. But I support KNNBCCB final solution LOL

go to CNA or some other bigger forum to see ppl's reactions to these kelings ridiculous whinings. You'll find that there are quite a number of chinese dogs that'll just pander to their whims and pity them for all their nonsense, instead of kelings finding a way to solve this problem among themselves and not whine.

What is there to argue when the Brits do not recognise it as a holiday. There is quite a number of Indians in London ? I heard they have curry and dono what Indian food in Mc Don outlets there.
How can one NOT hate Christmas and NY to fall on both weekends for the same year !

Wow i really pity you during that time. You know i'm damn sick and tired of this fucking country's attitude that everytime chinese get inconvinenced they just have to suck it up and put up with it but when it happens to say a keling or someone else they have to post a big hoo haa on the media and somehow ppl are expected to sympathize with them.
