Education Minister Dr Maszlee Malik.

PETALING JAYA: Education Minister Dr Maszlee Malik (pic) should not link issues surrounding the matriculation intake quota with language requirements for jobs as these two are distinct", says the Centre for a Better Tomorrow (Cenbet).

Its co-president Gan Ping Sieu said the first issue was if the 9:1 quota system was merited, and the second was about an individual's skill set.
