The DAP secretary-general(picture), in a statement today, forked Muhyiddin to numerous alternative general studies, which he pronounced have regularly embellished Malaysia's preparation complement in a bad light, even ranking it next many countries inside of a ASEAN region.
"The law is which a being of a preparation is distant from a flushed design which Muhyiddin is painting.

"In fact, Malaysians do not even need a inform to tell them which there is a dire complaint with a preparation complement which produces unemployable graduates who have been unable to think critically," Lim complained.
Muhyiddin, who is deputy budding apportion as well as preparation minister, had pronounced yesterday which Malaysians in general have tall courtesy for a local preparation system.
He pronounced this in light of a new consult by Introspek Asia, which suggested which 55 per cent of Malaysian adults believe which a local preparation complement is allied to alternative countries, whilst 35 per cent pronounced it is "better than which of grown countries".
"Once again, Muhyiddin is cherry-picking enlightened census data to prove his point. If this is a case, then he should answer because there is not a singular Malaysian Nobel Prize leader as well as because is there not a singular Malaysian university ranked amongst a tip 200 u! niversit ies in a world?
"Or when since a choice, because do some-more Malaysian students choose to investigate in a US, UK as well as Germany rather than in Malaysian universities?" Lim asked.
Previously, pronounced a Penang Chief Minister, Muhyiddin had "selectively" quoted part of a World Economic Forum's (WEF) Global Competitiveness Index Report 2011-2012 to use it as his basis for claiming which Malaysia's preparation complement was improved than those of a United States, Germany as well as a United Kingdom.

The index additionally ranks Malaysia during 59 for a tertiary preparation enrolment rate, which Lim pronounced is distant behind a average of 50 per cent for many OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation as well as Development) countries.
Another study, a 2009 Program for International Student Assessment (PISA), pronounced Lim, had ranked Malaysia 55th in reading ability, 57th in arithmetic ability as well as 52nd in science.
"Unfortunately, instead of admitting a weaknesses as well as acid for solutions, a Education Minister prefers to be in rejection as well as attempts to 'bamboozle' (hoodwink! ) Malays ians with resourceful as well as biased data in sequence to whitewash a true state of Malaysian education.
"By ceaselessly insisting which a preparation complement is improved than which of grown nations, Muhyiddin not only reveals which he suffers from rejection set of symptoms though which he is additionally stuck in fantasy as well as additionally raises questions about his competency," he said.
