PM calls for young scientist 'brigade' to drive STEM interest in schools
Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim wants 100 young scientists to give talks in 100 schools to spur students' interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
Launching the National Bioeconomy Showcase 2024 on Wednesday (July 17), the Prime Minister expressed concern over the declining interest in STEM subjects and the widening gap between urban and rural schools in this field, adding that the lack of interest in STEM should be tackled through a multi-ministry approach that also involves the private sector.
Anwar also tasked Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Chang Lih Kang to work with the Education Ministry on ways to spur interest in STEM subjects.
