from the pre-Merdeka 1956 Razak Report, prepared by Tun Abdul Razak who
was then the Education Minister, as part of the National Education
Policy for the soon-to-be independent Federation of Malaya.
“His report stressed on national unity through the education system for there is more to education than memorising facts and figures,” he said.
“Students needed to be taught to respect one another, be law-abiding citizens and such good values needed
to be instilled while they were schooling.”
