KUCHING - Parents should instill in their children the interest in Science, Technology , Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) so that they can meet the challenges in the future

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof said by mastering the fields of STEM, it will enable Malaysia to compete with other developed countries and improve its development status.

"In Petra Jaya, we have established an Education Bureau to support schools in providing any form of aid in education, including STEM programmes.

"Anyone who wants to channel aid is welcome to come to the parliamentary and state service centre in Petra Jaya," he said.

Fadillah who is also the MP for Petra Jaya said this when speaking at the Petra Jaya Back to School Programme held at Mydin supermarket here today.
