Several state governments including Penang, Kedah and Melaka have declared a half-month bonus or a minimum of RM1,000 each for public workers in state agencies while the federal government has yet to do so.Earlier, Dr Mahathir, who opened the National Teacher’s Day Celebration at Spice Arena here, said the federal government’s prioritisation of education was evidenced by the allocation of RM60.2 billion for the Education Ministry in the 2019 Budget.
“This achievement showed that Malaysia is on the right track to be recognised as a competitive and progressive nation in terms of education compared to other developed countries,” he said during his speech.“To encourage students to be bilingual, the ministry has launched two programmes, the Highly Immersive Programme and the Dual Language Programme,” he said.
