The purpose of this study was to identify the learning problem that rose for Bahasa Melayu subject among non-native students in Sarikei, Sarawak. The non-native community is the majority races in Sarikei, Sarawak district. The non-native community is now and then focusing on the Chinese community from Foochow, Cantonese, and also Hokkien ethnic. Thus, the majority of student in this school are Chinese and the rest are native student. Every student that gets formal education from the government school are required to learn and master or at least pass the Bahasa Melayu subject in Malaysian Certificate of Education (SPM) level for them to get full certificate. The results from SPM examination found that these non-native students can be divided into two, namely students who are excel or weak in Bahasa Melayu subject respectively. Poor student achievement in this subject prompted this study to be carried out. The data from this study were collected using few different methods which include from the interview itself, direct observation and running some test to 127 non-native students. The interview was carried out by interviewing Bahasa Melayu subject teachers, classroom teacher, parents and locals. The findings from this study shows that the mastery level for non-native students in this school is very critical because some of them still have difficulty in understanding vocabulary and some of them still does not know the alphabet. The factors that were identified were the influence of their mother tongue, cultural differences, the basis of education in primary school, the attitudes of students and parents, economic background, environment, teaching and learning styles and the relationship between students and teachers. This study contributes to teachers and school administrators to improve their learning and teaching performance of the Bahasa Melayu subject among non-native students.
