DBP Board of Governors Chairman Prof Dr Md Salleh Yaapar said other than conduct an in-depth study to find the right mechanism, the government could seek the views of education experts.
“We will gradually persuade the ministers to look into this. If they are given a clear explanation and if there is sincerity, they must agree,” he told reporters after the launching of DBP Innovation Day 2016 here yesterday.
It was launched by Deputy Education Minister P Kamalanathan.
Md Salleh was commenting on Sultan of Perak Sultan Nazrin Shah’s call for a wise formula to create a bilingual society in efforts to develop human resources of a global nature without marginalising the national language.
Earlier, Kamalanathan called on DBP to move forward creatively and constructively and find new ways to deliver its services and products, in line with the proliferation of information technology and communications.
However, the adventure on innovation should not be individualistic, but implemented synergistically with partners from the public and private sectors.
At the event, Kamalanathan also launched DBPNiaga.my, DBP’s online sales system.
