At the recent launch of the Sekolah Angkat Madani initiative, Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek stated that education must not be viewed solely through the lens of infrastructure provision, but rather as a holistic ecosystem that meets the full spectrum of student needs.
For many students in rural and underserved communities, the school building is only the beginning of their struggle. To realise this holistic vision, we must confront the less visible, yet deeply entrenched, barriers to educational access.
