For kids of mixed race, I believe MOE has allowed student to pick MT based on either parent for some time now (technically need approval but I believe it is given). In the case above, were there any particular reasons you (@Tiger2) cited for the kids to study Mandarin? I.e. don't speak Tamil or one...

How are you getting mother tongue Mandarin when mother tongue is based on the Father's race?

I wrote to MOE requesting for the kids to take up Mandarin. They agreed.
