Sarawak teachers' union says no need for English teachers from US


KUCHING: The Sarawak Teachers Union (STU) is not in favour of importing English voluntary teachers from the United States, under the English Teaching Assistants (ETA) programme to beef up the English standard among the students in the state.

STU deputy president Jisin Nyud said this was because the state had enough qualified local English teachers who could handle the task.
