The Secondary School's Educational Language (MOI) is one of the main concerns of various stakeholders in Hong Kong including the Education Administration (EDB), business, parents, principals and teachers. This is because a high standard of linguistic ability not only helps students achieve excellent academic achievement but also helps to get a better career. Therefore, the education department always changes the instruction language to meet various needs. The fine adjustment policy of MOI is correspondence of the education authority to controversial mother tongue language education.
In 1982, the colonial government invited an international team to review Hong Kong's educational system. This group recommends Cantonese as the educational language for the first nine years and education and learning is done in the mind language. This proposal is supported by a number of evidences that prove that mother tongue teaching is more effective. According to Sy Onna, a Chinese teacher at a junior high school who is extensively studying this topic, the government has not satisfiedly explained why China's PMI has been adopted as a long-term goal. According to the academic survey, the effectiveness of the PMI is contradictory and there is no overall improvement in the Chinese language ability.
How does the Hong Kong government seek to replace the Cantonese of Putonghua as a teaching language of Chinese schools?

Case study: Hong Kong Hong Kong has a nearly unique political color. It is a country where the instruction language has changed and changed. We believe Hong Kong believes that the social status of Britain is high and that English ability is a prerequisite for obtaining excellent academic and professional outlook. Therefore, when the colonial government adopted a non-intervention policy on educational language, more than 90% of junior high schools claimed that it was EMI. After Hong Kong was delivered from the UK to the UK, the mother tongue policy was implemented in 1998, but about 25% of the school was allowed to stay at EMI. In the decade since 1998, the government has introduced "fine tuning" MoI policy. As long as certain criteria are met, Hong Kong secondary schools can choose to become EMI schools. It allows the school to "use different MOI placement"
