Malaysia's future depends on its ability to boost student performance in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Furthermore, as jobs become increasingly competitive and difficult to secure, students will need to have stronger foundation in these subject areas.
These and more were highlighted by the Malaysian prime minister during his speech at the Global STEM Alliance at the United Nations headquarters. He hoped to achieve the ratio of 60:40 for children interested in STEM as compared to non-STEM education and careers.
In 2000, the ratio was 25:75 and at present it is now 42:58 following government's commitment in supporting STEM education.
He said investment in STEM was about investing in the future. He added that the government had several initiatives such as the Science to Action (S2A) programme, building up a nobelist mindset and cradle-to-career programmes in the move to accelerate their interest in STEM.
A successful STEM education programme can be reflected by the birth of critical thinkers, increase in science literacy and enabling the next generation of innovators.
“Even if Malaysia may not produce a Nobel laureate, the whole process involved in striving for the goal will lead to the emergence of a much stronger interest in STEM for a career. “However, I hope that one day Malaysia can produce a Nobel laureate,” he said.
