The issue of Malaysian Education was started as early as in 1951 with the Barnes Report with the purpose to unite
all ethnic during the colonial time but it was unsuccessful. It was then was replaced according to Razak Report in
1956 followed by Rahman Talib Report in 1960. The Education Act was then established in 1961. Education can
have a strong force to promote unity and integration or the other way (Wan Hashim, 1983, p.72). The government
viewed that the Razak Report and Rahman Talib Report are able to integrate the students of different ethnic
group, which can aspire the students to be more ethical, knowledgeable, balanced to contribute to harmonious and
progressive societies (INTAN, 90-93). Since then, there are many changes and revise on the National Education
Policy for the improvement in the education system. However, the changes in the education system and policy
can had brought to more ethnic insecurity instead of enhancing the relationship amongst ethnic in Malaysia (M.
Bakri Musa, 242-244). There was a contradicting statement between the INTAN Report and others in the view of
promoting unity amongst ethnic. Furthermore, in the INTAN Report also, it was stated that the government is not
so sure whether the National Education Policy has successfully unite the Malaysian ethnic as education is not the
only factor in contributing to the unity of ethnic.
