PETALING JAYA: Instead of making the rich pay to enter top, heavily-funded schools, it is better for the government to ensure that the poor are guaranteed a good education, educationists say.
Malaysian Association for Education secretary Hamidi Mookkaiyah Abdullah said these schools, meant to create a level playing field for underprivileged children to compete academically, are now taking in children from the elite group who have access to many facilities at home.
