Heard this school is pretty impressive and anyone with feedback?

a) since this is a private school, can the students upon graduate apply for local universities?

b) how's you describe the discipline and learning atmosphere of the school? Would you describe it is a school with high academic performance but still the typical Malaysia system i.e spoon-fed, just-follow-me, don-t-ask-too-much kind? Or it is a school deviate from typical Malaysia-style but encourage the students to be entrepreneur, independent?

c) How's the qualities of the teachers?

d) is Chinese Language a subject that student can choose?

e) how's the school fees? the same from Form 1 until Form 5 or cascading? Other type of fees?

Thanks!

Work/Invest in Msia versus migration

I would like to get your opinions on the investment options i could have. My biggest financial objective is to save RM400K for each kids' education in foreign country (total RM$1.2M) in 9 years time.

Alternatively I am thinking of migrating to Australia and so I can free myself from the burden of saving big money for the kids for the tertiary education. Do you think it is a good option?
