Champion education in longhouses, educated Ibans urged

Anyi receives a traditional Iban attire as a memento from the longhouse chieftain (fourth right). SIBU (June 9): Successful and educated members of the Iban community must take the lead in uplifting education standards in their longhouse communities, said Anyi Jana. The Ngemah assemblyman said their achievements should serve as a source of inspiration, particularly to rural students who often face greater educational challenges. He emphasised that those who have succeeded academically should not forget their roots but to give back to the society. 'Parents also play an important role in shaping their children's future,' Anyi said in his speech at a meet-the-people gathering at Rumah Gani Mahi in Kabah, Kanowit on Saturday. He further highlighted that various educational aid schemes have been made available by the state government to assist Sarawak students, particularly those in rural areas. Adding a personal touch, Anyi said he had launched his own initiative to offer incentives to students who perform well in the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examinations. 'This is meant to encourage our children to aim higher and do well in public examinations,' he said. He said students pursuing higher education, including diplomas and degrees, are also being supported through the initiative. Among those present at the event were Parti Rakyat Sarawak (PRS) Ngemah deputy chairman Ramba Resang and PRS Ngemah Youth chief Councillor Stenny Willis. anyi jana education Iban community lead

Millions sit China's high-stakes university entrance exam

School staff welcome students as they enter a school during China's National College Entrance Examination, known as gaokao, outside a high school in Beijing on June 7, 2025. - AFP BEIJING: Hopeful parents accompanied their teenage children to the gates of a busy Beijing test centre on Saturday (June 7), among millions of high school students across China sitting their first day of the highly competitive university entrance exam. Nationwide, 13.35 million students have registered for the multi-subject "gaokao" series this year, according to the Ministry of Education, down from last year's record-high 13.42 million test takers. Outside the central Beijing secondary school, a proud parent who gave her name as Chen said "12 years of hard work have finally led to this moment" - as she waved a fan in front of her daughter while the student reviewed her notes one last time before the test. "We know our kids have endured so much hardship," Chen told AFP, adding that she was not nervous. "I'm actually quite excited. I think my child is excellent, and I'm sure she will get the best score," she said. China's gaokao requires students to use all their knowledge acquired to this point, testing them on subjects including Chinese, English, mathematics, science and humanities. The exam results are critical for gaining admission to university - and determining whether they will attend a prestigious or more modest institution. While teachers and staff offered students their support, holding up signs of encouragement, some test takers, dressed in school uniforms, appeared panicked, including a girl with tears in her eyes. "There's no need for us parents to add pressure. The children are already under a lot of it," said a woman named Wang, whose son had just entered the exam hall. Like many mothers, she wore a traditional Chinese qipao in hopes of bringing good luck. "I hope my son achieves immediate success and gets his name on the (list of high-scoring candidates)," Wang said with a smile. Higher education has expanded rapidly in China in recent decades as an economic boom pushed up living standards - as well as parents' expectations for their children's careers. But the job market for young graduates remains daunting. As of April, 15.8 per cent of people aged 16 to 24 living in urban areas were unemployed, according to the National Bureau of Statistics. Due to this pressure, many Chinese students prepare for the gaokao from a young age, often with extra lessons after the regular school day. And every year education authorities are on guard against cheating and disruptions during the exam. This week, China's Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang called for a "safe gaokao", stressing the importance of a rigorous campaign against cheating. Areas around exam centres are closely guarded by police, with road lanes closed to traffic and several cities banning motorists from honking their horns so as not to disrupt the concentration of students. In some schools, facial recognition is even used to prevent fraud. While the university admission rate for gaokao test takers has exceeded 80-90 per cent in recent years, many students disappointed with their results choose to repeat the exam. As there is no age limit for the test, some have become notorious for attempting the exam dozens of times, either after failing it or not getting into their top-choice university. One teacher at the Beijing school where parents saw off their children on Saturday estimated that only about ten of the approximately 600 final-year students there would earn a place at one of the capital's top universities. Jiang, a final-year high school student who only gave one name, said he dreamt of attending a Beijing university, and was remaining calm shortly before his Chinese exam. "Even though the pressure is intense, it's actually quite fair," he told AFP. "I feel like all the preparations that needed to be made have been made, so there's really no point in being nervous now, right? "Whatever happens, happens. It's truly not something I can completely control." - AFP
