EDUCATION  
There is an increasing demand in recent years for tertiary education and other manpower training institutions to provide the necessary personnel for the state's modern economic sectors.
Education is centrally controlled in Malaysia, but in recent years there is a trend towards liberalization of education. This has led to the emergence of more private educational institutions to augment the publicly funded schools and colleges.
