This thread is quite funny.
Although there are some universities which have started to develop Science and Mathematics textbooks (I heard Ateneo has developed one), it has to be understood that English has deeply rooted in Philippine education system that changing the medium of instruction from English to Filipino is a great education reform which would need an "excessive amount of money". There's so many issues facing the quality of our educatiion today which needs to be addressed.
Why did I say that it needs excessive amount of money? Here are the reasons:
1. We have to invest for the development of new textbooks (in Filipino language) which is more expensive than just revising the widely used textbooks in English.
2. We need to train Science and Mathematics teachers per se for them to adopt the changes that this new medium of instruction might bring. (Remember that teachers are trained in colleges and universities in English)
3. If the government is aware, researches have to conducted first in order for this policy to be implemented successfully. There should be pilot schools to measure the feasibility of the project/reform.
If something needs to be changed, it should be something which is not working or something which is causing a problem. English isn't causing problems in our government and it even helps us in sustaining our economy. WHY NOT CHANGE THOSE IRRESPONSIBLE EMPLOYEES IN THE DEPED, INSTEAD? hahahaha.....
If the reason of those "idiots" is that Filipinos start to lose their identity and values because of English then they are wrong. We are Filipinos even if we speak all the languages in the world. Give more attention on values integration in different academic disciplines because that is what we need and not eradicate something which has been so useful.
