Need to ensure elements of social responsibility are included in subjects to instil good values in students: Education group chairman
In a Facebook post on Aug 12, Zulkifli Ismail, who is best known for his role as ASP Razlan in the Gerak Khas television series, shared an image of an old Tatarakyat textbook, titled Tatara’yat adalah kera’ayatan yang baik , co-written by C. Michael and T. Daniel and published in 1966. However, as part of the Malaysia Education Blueprint 2013-2025, it was removed from the curriculum, and incorporated into core subjects, such as Islamic History for Muslim students and moral studies for others.
“This still holds significant importance in shaping the moral fabric of our youth, although there is a significant difference in how these subjects are delivered by educators,” she added. “This sometimes creates a more fragmented understanding of civic duties among students. Rather than merely reintroducing older versions of civic education, a more profound cultural shift is needed within the education system.”
She said the focus should be on embedding life skills and civic-mindedness into the everyday experiences of students, ensuring such values become second nature over time.
