A Flickering Candle In The Wind

The La Salle heritage in Malaysia has come full circle since the Brothers first set foot in the land. The implementation of the National Education Policy in 1969 essentially reduces La Salle education to nought with the Brothers sidelined (even in their own schools) to play a peripheral role at best. The policy also precludes foreign Brothers from entering and teaching in the country. With the local youths hardly interested in the vocation, the Brothers' population diminishes to only a handful most of whom are now in their golden years.
