Wee: Chinese schools for others, too


Now open: Dr Wee striking the gong with SJK(C) Chung Hwa school board of governors chairman Tan Hoon Siong (centre) and Jasin MCA division chief Koh Chin Han in Malacca.

MALACCA: Chinese primary schools are not meant for the Chinese community alone. In fact, they are learning institutions that nurture human capital with the mastery of at least three languages.

MCA deputy president Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong said that Chinese education has been the catalyst for nation-building and the importance of learning the language itself was apparent with the increasing non-Chinese students at such schools.
