The Ministry of Education needs dependable information to

monitor education development, and push forward our

efforts to develop a world class education system. Quick

Facts collects such essential information-on schools,

enrolment and teachers, as well as education institutions and

providers. Quick Facts relies on the Malaysia Educational

Statistics, but the pocket-size publication offers an

alternative and convenient digest of the vital data. Quick

Facts has become an indispensable reference to decision-

makers, policy planners, and researchers in the Ministry and

beyond. I hope the Educational Planning and Research

Division will keep up the good work and continues to ensure

that the publication remains relevant and useful. I would like

to thank all the agencies that have contributed towards this

publication and I hope that such cooperation will continue

for the benefit of all concerned.

PREFACE

The Ministry of Education provides all information on

education to enable informed decision-making, policy

formulation, and educational planning. Alongside this task,

circulating the information to stakeholders is equally

important. The Educational Planning and Research Division

(EPRD) of the Ministry of Education publishes the annual

Malaysia Educational Statistics towards this end. Quick Facts

is a response to the need for statistics and other to analyse

the available educational data. Quick Facts plays a

complementary role to the Malaysia Educational Statistics

by providing comparable educational statistics and

indicators in a convenient, easy-to-use format. The Quick

Facts team has produced a high-quality manuscript which

will ensure continuing support and reception of all users in

the future. On behalf of EPRD, I would like to thank all those

involved in this year’s Quick Facts for their efforts towards

making it a success.
