Help for international school operators

THE Education Ministry will assist investors or education service providers intending to set up new international schools in the country, said its deputy minister Datuk P. Kamalanathan. He said currently the ministry had received one proposal to set up an international school in Kluang and another in Batu Pahat in Johor.

“Currently we have about 116 international schools nationwide. The ministry also has approved a few more. We welcome any investors who would like to set up the school away from the Klang Valley,” he said recently.

Kamalanathan said he would continue to support the initiative because that was one of the Entry Point Projects under the ministry.
