Bandaid, Not Cure For Matriculation Ails

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim announced that SPM students who score 10As, regardless of background, will be guaranteed entry to the matriculation programme without affecting the 90% Bumiputera quota. Will the lifting of restrictions for top scorers improve meritocracy in the education sector? We discuss meritocracy and fairness in pre-university pathways with Dr.Lee Hwok-Aun of the ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute.
