 Critically discuss the socio-economic trends as a determinant of the Malaysian education system

Answer 1

The size of the household would determine the demand for schooling. Factors such as child labor demand, urban living conditions, and the child's position in the family's economic well-being influence demand for education. Malaysia's government has made enormous investments in education. According to the UNESCO Institute of Education Statistics, Malaysian government expenditure on education as a percentage of GDP was the highest compared to Singapore and Thailand. By studying the effects of various education levels on economic growth, Malaysia's education level has the most significant impact. The government's education spending is more efficient and successful since it focuses on the education level that has the most significant effect on economic growth. It adds to Malaysia's economic growth and allows it to remain competitive while also accomplishing the government's long-term aim of being an international education hub.
