Why people still resign when facing economy downturn?

I think nowadays people are very scared to lose their job and try to work really hard to save their job, but some of my friend quit their job and unemployed right now. I think this must be some bad story behind the action. I think the most impact is from their boss.

As company are facing bad time, lots of CEO and managers in the company also facing tremendous pressure because of the economy downturn might get the company into a trouble. my friend told me that every meeting, his manager try to remind him that economy is bad and need to work hard for survive. He work for day and night to get his boss happy with what he have done and end up he got some bad word from his boss as well.

And at last he resigned from his current work which he stayed for 4 years of services. I think this is quite hard for staff to under an unreasonable boss in this current situation. I kind of don’t understand why their boss reacts like that, but end up your company will be losing a good employee from the bad treatment given to them.

Use of English in the teaching and learning of Mathematics and Science

Is there any problem to use English in the teaching of Mathematics and Science? I think the initial plan is good and might have some difficulty to implement it because teacher might not use to it by teaching Math and Sciences in English.

Today there are people protests for the issue, I don’t think this action taken is right because any suggestion made by government is good for people here. Teaching Mathematics and Science in English might improve the understanding of English. Seriously, I have been struggling with my poor English and this is because never have a good practice to improve it when I was in secondary school. So, I do think make more practices of English during school time is good.

People keep complain about some changes is because they are not used to the challenges. They might regret it when come out from school and start to work. So, please do not complain blindly because of the suffering of the changes.
