Nanyang Daily highlighted that the government aims to promote technical and vocational education, shifting from the belief that university is the only path.

Strategic partnerships among government, institutions, and industries are vital for student employment and meeting workforce needs, the daily said. Despite past setbacks, the Unity Government is dedicated to improving technical education, ensuring progress toward a more robust and rational education system, the daily added. 

Sin Chew Daily highlighted as a global superpower, the United States (U.S) should mediate the Israel-Palestine conflict to align with global interests.

Criticizing China for human rights abuses while condoning Israel’s actions against Palestinians undermines America’s moral authority and credibility in addressing other countries’ issues, said the daily.
