English critical for growth


WE take great pride in saluting Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah, the Sultan of Perak, for stressing to aspiring lawyers the importance of having a “strong command of English for their future role in safeguarding Malaysia’s interests on the world stage”, “Sultan Nazrin: Have good grasp of English” (The Star, April 29).

He stressed that as Malaysia has embarked on a bigger presence in the global market through its participation in the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement, many career opportunities will be opened up since there will be increased flow of deals among nations.
