Perhaps a good way would be for us to pool resources among many initiatives that have been started over the years, and find a way to get a sustainable action and development from it. EducateDeviate, EducationMalaysia, ReCom.org, TinKosong, Malaysia Scholarships, thecicak etc are just some of the initiatives that have been started, and we should find ways to work together for a better education for Malaysia for the future. I won't say that what EducateDeviate has done is just talking. I am sure you have known of many people whose life might have been transformed due to certain conferences/initiatives/programs that they have participated, after getting to know about it from here. Lets not make all these go to waste! :) Tiara,

I was going to propose other people getting more involved but as you said, it's your baby :) Although you're right in saying that we need to move into action instead of talking about these issues, I feel like many, many educators and Malaysian society in general are still struggling to even start this discussion on what it means to be "educated". I'm not sure what your goals are, but if they involve the education system in Malaysia then connecting with organizations that are already established in alternative education (Raleigh, Cloudbreak in Msia etc) might be useful... please don’t leave educatedeviate!!!! i think it’s a very unique website that has inspired and will continue to inspire many young Malaysians, particularly those studying in Malaysia, to look outside the box.
