The case of thedwindling numbers. [Newspaper] (2021)



Abstract

Since Malaysia set a target ratio of 60:40 science-to-non-science students at the upper secondary school level in 1967, the government has been working together with educationists to increase awareness on the importance of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). More than five decades on, and with an even more pressing need for STEM talents, we are still way off the target. In 2010, the ratio of science to non-science students was 48:52 and in 2014, it was 47:53 with 29% of Form Five students enrolled in the pure science stream.
