The Permata programme for early childhood development has been rebranded as 'Genius', but whether the programme itself will undergo any change remains to be seen.
On April 15, Education Minister Maszlee Malik said the Permata programme for early childhood development – the brainchild of Rosmah Mansor, the wife of former prime minister Najib Razak – would be retained by his ministry.
Now, after the audit, the minor adjustments, and the relocation of the programme to the purview of the education ministry, Maszlee says it will be renamed “Genius”.
All this money should have been allocated to the education ministry for the improvement of education for all Malaysians. If the issue is teaching, the money should have been used to train more teachers in the methods that Permata claims have unlocked the potential in the minds of the children.
