Get the i won the math debate mug.Short for fourth generation math syllabus change in Singapore, since the Y2K bug. The Ministry of Education (MOE) is reverting to its old ways of controllably and uncompetitively writing its own elementary math content, instead of outsourcing the task to publishers.
