Fadhlina to visit Orang Asli schools, assess teacher training, education challenges

Education Minister Datuk Seri Fadhlina Sidek is set to journey to remote areas in the coming days to evaluate teacher training, pedagogy, operational challenges, and community involvement in Orang Asli education. She aims to gain a holistic understanding of the accomplishments, successes, and community collaboration surrounding Orang Asli children's education. The development of Orang Asli children's education is a personal passion of hers, which influences her advocacy for humanistic education.

Fadhlina has studied a book on Orang Asli education, which examines practical methods, ownership, pedagogy, and the role of institutions in fostering education for the community. She hopes that the book's authors, researchers, and contributors will continue their work by ensuring their research and findings translate into initiatives by the Education Ministry.

Fadhlina's extended absence in the interior for several days may leave her out of contact temporarily. However, she reassures that upon her return, the team will continue working to provide the best possible education for Orang Asli children in Malaysia. Addressing teachers in remote areas she plans to meet, Fadhlina urges them to wait for her, stay strong for Malaysian children.
