KUALA LUMPUR: English medium schools will be introduced in Sabah and Sarawak under a pilot project in a move to improve language proficiency. Other measures to improve English language proficiency are the Dual Language Programme (DLP) and High Immersion Programme (HIP). • Encouraging employers to provide childcare facilities by offering special initiatives such as tax exemptions. • Upgrading the Integrated Special Education Programme (PPKI) in all schools involved to unlock the potential of differently-abled children. • Increasing the number of subjects in the Dual Language Programme (DLP) to make it more comprehensive.
