KUALA LUMPUR: A report being prepared by the committee conducting the Mathematics, Reading and Science under the Programme for International Student Assessment (Pisa) 2015 will explain the reason for the inadequate sampling which resulted in Malaysia’s disqualification, said Deputy Education Minister Datuk Chong Sin Woon.

He said although Malaysia was disqualified, its improvement compared with previous results was recognised.
