Group 3A-What does politic(s) mean to us?

Well,if we say about politics,almost all people will say about political parties,conflict,diplomatic,war..and whatsoever.Mostly it is true.But,politic is more than that.We have to study more deeply about all political situation that happens.Never judge a book only by its cover!

As a Political Science students,we look politics in a different view.Really different view.We look politics as a subject that need us to have a good general knowledge in history,good vocabulary/grammar in english,and plenty of current politic issues.Without all these knowledge,you will get no point at all about what are politics.

Generally.the word "politics" originates from Greek word,"polis" which means a city.In other words,politics is the study of a city.There are many defination about politics from different scholars.Here is one of them:

"any persistent pattern of human relationships that involves,to a significant extent,power,rule or authority".(by Dahl).

In our class,we can hear so many "bad words" about Political Science subject;

"Miss,i cannot speak english very good lah~"
"i hate history.So,i dont like this subject"
"Beb,ape tu sovereignty?I don't paham laa"
"legislative is..is...is..legislative is..a..power..is...is.."

Hey!Think positive!

Although some students think that politic is a tough subject to study for,but if we are working hard for it,then it is not a problem at all.English language,in this case,is the most important part(besides history).This subject(political science)are fully teached in english language.

Our last words,dont make politic as a platform to condemn others.Make politic as a platform to develop our country and maintain our sovereignty.(Sovereignty,again..)

Thats all.Best regards,GROUP 3A(AMD1PA)
