BERA: The Keluarga Malaysia Education Tour (JPKM) programme organised by Yayasan Prihatin Nasional (Prihatin) can help realise the aspirations of rural students to further their studies at the tertiary level, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob (pix).
He said with the tour to be held at 50 locations throughout the country, the target group could be better approached and facilitated.
“In fact, this education tour can help students with financial problems to further their studies with contributions from various agencies.
“We also focus on helping these groups, because sometimes, their family’s status and background do not allow them to continue their studies, so we try to help them through this tour,” he said when speaking during the tour’s opening ceremony at the Bera District Council Convention Hall here, today.
He also called on government agencies, private companies and government-linked companies (GLCs) to contribute, so that more poor and underprivileged students could be helped. — Bernama
