Virtues should also be inculcated into students so that they can hold universal values.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Different countries have been keen on developing various committees and blueprints centered at propelling the education system.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Education system\u2019s interference by politicians<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Politicians have been given considerable mandates in developing educational blueprints and committees. This is unfortunate because they do not have the expertise to build a country\u2019s progressive education network.<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some politicians usually have egocentric motives in different sectors. Education is not an exemption because they utilize image management acts when developing various policies.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>This is usually a well-crafted move to woo voters that they are carrying out their job perfectly. Moreover, political elements are heavily entrenched in the education system from the primary to tertiary stages.<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taxpayers have not been given value for their money despite millions being spent when crafting education systems.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0In many instances, politicians have taken up the mandate of developing them in spite of their low practical education knowledge base.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Politicians\u2019 concerns are centered on religion and race because they fear losing elections. The same is replicated in education systems at the expense of significant progress.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>For example, in Malaysia, despite sixty-two (62) independence years, the nation still does not have a solution on how to enhance its education system.\u00a0<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, education in this nation is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.freemalaysiatoday.com\/category\/nation\/2019\/08\/10\/we-failed-because-education-ministry-didnt-get-priorities-right-says-daim\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">more of a divisive force<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as compared to being an integrative one as this fosters nation-building. Social divergence has been inevitable in Malaysia.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rich in Malaysia, irrespective of race, admit their children to international and private schools as they believe national schools belong to the underprivileged.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Singapore\u2019s incredible education system<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>In Singapore, education policymakers looked beyond the twentieth (20<\/b><b>th<\/b><b>) century in the implementation of distinctive approaches.\u00a0<\/b><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, they crafted an education system that was not founded on religious or race doctrines.<\/span><br \/>\n<b>In the beginning, the policymakers did not eliminate autonomous vernacular school but made national schools the perfect choice where English was used when teaching.
