(Acknowledge the need for change and the challenges facing the current education system)

The following are 13 suggestions to improve the quality of education:

1. Education Quality Management System (EQMS): Before implementing any process or system, both statutory bodies and educational organizations should practice predictive and proactive approaches.

2. The syllabus/curriculum should be revised to support employment, professional business, or entrepreneurship.

3. Due to the exposure of the new generation to world activities through hi-tech gadgets, there is a need for human science and decision-making ability-related subjects at the school level to avoid confusion and threats to the next generation.

4. The knowledge-based effective system, i.e., objective/application type examination system, should be introduced to align with industry practices and global business trends, as quality knowledge and good talent have become a rare commodity due to the number game of marks in the existing system.

5. To create a better generation, a quality practice teacher system should be introduced as the knowledge gain depends on the teacher's ability and the student's capability.

6. The stay-connected syndrome is killing the precious time and energy of the younger generation, leading to confusion and chaos due to more unwanted inputs/information. An authenticated guidance group or system should be introduced to provide the right direction and support for positive growth.

7. A stress management system should be introduced in the school environment to encourage multidisciplinary or multitasking ability, which will help individuals deal with stress and develop a risk appetite culture.

8. An industry-driven syllabus should be introduced in education, instead of focusing solely on a technology-based syllabus, as the industry only supports skills relevant to employment.

9. An international teacher-student ratio should be introduced for standard and quality enhancement, as the existing teacher-student ratio is alarming and the standard of education has reached the bottom level, making the teaching of complex ideas difficult and almost missing.

10. Direct application-oriented research activities should be encouraged, rather than research for degree purposes.

11. Industry expertise participation should be encouraged in the school/college education system to understand aspiration and reality mismatch and encourage the vision and risk appetite needed for industrial global trends.

12. "The essence of education lies in the concentration of the mind, not just the accumulation of facts. Therefore, schools should introduce and encourage activities that enhance focus to promote good health and a sound mind. This will help young minds utilize their time and energy effectively with clarity and focus."

13. Education should not be seen as a mere survival tool, but rather as a means for the holistic development of individuals, empowering them to lead an extraordinary life. As the saying goes, "A person's worth is determined by the associate/company they keep". Therefore, it is important to create a positive and nurturing environment within schools where students can associate with people who are good-hearted and are surrounded by positivity.
