Inclusive edu a measure of success


THE recent call for a review of our education policy on refugee children by Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negri Sembilan Tuanku Muhriz Ibni Almarhum Tuanku Munawir (“Don’t deny refugees education”, The Star, Dec 12, 2022) is timely and forward-looking, as we embark on a new chapter in our country’s political history.

This call in regard to access to education must not just involve refugee children, but also include the undocumented, stateless and asylum seekers whose right to access education has been hampered by the existing policy.
