Teresa Kok said classes on foreign languages are not provided at primary and secondary schools, as well as in institutions of higher learning, aside from students in the linguistics faculty.
Pointing to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s mission to bring in foreign investors, Kok said multilingualism is crucial to facilitate and ease communications and trade. Kok noted that since Anwar took office in November 2022, he has brought in over RM200 billion in investments from his 17 working trips, including to the United Arab Emirates, United States, China, and many others.
“Malaysia must do more to invest in encouraging students, youth and young adults to learn additional foreign languages – particularly ones that will help them with their careers and future working endeavours – while at the same time to be masters in the national language of Bahasa Malaysia.”
