All crises boil down to flaws in education system, says Dullas
By Saman Indrajith
All the crises Sri Lanka was beset with were due to the country’s outdated education system, MP Dullas Alahapperuma told Parliament yesterday.
“The political and economic crisis we are facing is the direct result of our education,” he said.
The Sri Lankan education system had not changed with global developments. Our system is not even geared for employment. Our examination system is antiquated and our classrooms are in the 19th Century.
However, the students belong to the 21st century. How can you cater to 21st Century children under an outdated system?” he queried.
