Bernama - Wednesday, September 1
JEMPOL, Aug 31 (Bernama) -- Malaysia's eighth world ranking in the field of education as listed by the Newsweek magazine showed that the education system in the country is of high-quality, Deputy Education Minister Dr Mohd Puad Zarkashi said.
Many factors had contributed to the success including the government's policy and focus on the importance of science and mathematics and the quality of the Malaysian teachers, he told reporters at a ceremony to present Aidilfitri donations to 500 orphans, organised by the Jempol Umno division, here today.
He said the success was also made possible as 90 per cent of the projects lined-up under the Education Development Master Plan (PIPP) were implemented, including the project to provide electricity and clean water supply to all schools nationwide.
"We can now say that 95 per cent of schools in the country have been provided with 24-hour electricity and clean water supply. This definitely has contributed to our success," he said.
Nevertheless, the deputy minister said the success was not due to the government's efforts alone, but also to the cooperation from all quarters, including the school's management, teachers, parents and the public as a whole.
