Except Myanmar and Cambodia, where education is mostly provided by the Government, almost all countries in the region encourage private sector participation in education. In Indonesia, private institutions have been contributing significantly to the provision of education. The higher the level of education, the higher the level of involvement of the community and private sector in providing education opportunity. Malaysia is now moving towards a more equitable share of financing education between the government and the private sector, while Thailand and the Philippines are strengthening active partnership between government and the private sector to sustain the process of human resource development.
