ASEANEWS | Paper Edition Headlines: Whither education?

PETALING JAYA: From the Razak Report in the 1960s to the KBSM and KBSR of the 1980s and 1990s to the current KBAT and KBKK, all impressive acronyms, where do we stand on education?

Despite these numerous revamps and policy changes, stakeholders have cautioned that our education system may be heading for failure.

Parent Action Group for Education president Datin Azimah Abdul Rahim said it is frustrating to see the top administration responsible for the nation’s education system not realising their shortcomings.

“They have failed to see what they are missing and therefore, any changes or revamps that are done are superficial and do not solve the bigger problem,” she told theSun.

Azimah said she was on the Majlis Penasihat Pendidikan Kebangsaan for two years.
