Good quality education is indeed the single most important input into enriching a nation’s human capital. Developed countries across the world have consistently and systematically made large scale investments in their education systems with a view to improving the social and economic health of the nation and to ensure a steady stream of high quality workforce.

If Asian countries are to realise the enormous potential of their vast populations, both government and industry will need to recognize the importance of investing in high quality education systems.
