Risk & Challenges

Challenges persist in Malaysian education, notably in regions like Sabah and Sarawak where severe teacher shortages hinder learning environments. Despite rigorous selection processes, prospective teachers often reject placements. Indigenous Peoples, including the Orang Asli, face significant education inequities, with lower passing rates and high dropout rates attributed to poverty, racism, and infrastructure deficiencies. Socio-economic disparities also contribute to unequal student performance, with urban schools consistently outperforming rural counterparts. Addressing these complex challenges requires collective leadership and collaborative efforts across various levels of the education ecosystem.
