MMA chips in to build stronger nation

NST: The Malaysian Medical Association has come forward to support the New Straits Times School Sponsorship Programme to help ensure a high standard of English in the country.
The association feels the language is essential in building a stronger nation, not just in terms of economic contribution but academic excellence as well.
MMA president Datuk Dr Teoh Siang Chin said if English is embraced as a national language by each Malaysian, especially school- children, the standard of the language would improve.
MMA contributed RM10,000 in sponsorship to adopt schools that are in close proximity with their operation centres nationwide.
