International, religious schools and UEC stream must offer BM, History as subjects in SPM, says PM Anwar


PUTRAJAYA: All schools across different education streams - including international schools, religious schools and those under the Unified Examination Certificate (UEC) stream - will be required to offer Bahasa Melayu and History as subjects in the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Anwar said the move would help resolve long standing controversies related to language issues and ensure that requirements for admission into public universities would no longer be disputed.

He said this when speaking at the launch of the National Education Plan 2026–2035.
