It should be given in both local and english.
The reason is that more information can be accessed if you know english. The maxim : Think globally and act locally applies perfectly to education.

There is quite a lot of research done which conclude:if you don't learn your mother tongue well you don't learn any other language either. But that does not mean that you shouldn't start learning other languages at an early age like 8-9 years,maybe even earlier. The biggest part of education should, however , be given in your mother tongue at least the 1st 4 to 6 years of school.
