KUCHING: Former state minister Datuk Amar James Wong Kim Min, who played a
key role in the formation of Malaysia, suggests that the history of how
Malaysia was formed should be made a subject in school.
He urged Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin in his capacity as the Minister of Education to consider this.
He reasoned that its introduction as a subject was important because the
nation’s formation represented a very significant history that all Malaysians
should know, particularly the new generation, so as to realise how lucky they
are that Malaysia was formed.
