KOTA SAMARAHAN: The Barisan Nasional government always have a big interest in the education of the state populace.

Assistany Minister of Youth Development (Urban) Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah said education played an important role in churning out quality human capital which would later be used to further develop the state and country.

Abdul Karim added it was due to this that the government wanted all to receive education regardless whether they were in urban or rural areas.

The assistant minister said this when delivering his speech during a ceremony of giving excellent awards to SK Kampung Baru students at a Kampung Baru community hall here today.

He also urged parent and teacher associations (PTAs) to be pro-active in performing its role as a bridge between schools and communities.

The assistant minister said a constant communication between PTAs and school administrations was very important because it could help the former to be aware of any problems plaguing the schools and subsequently take the necessary actions to address the problems.

On the school's UPSR result this year, Abdul Karim congratulated the school for having an improvement.

He subsequently revealed that the school had two students who scored 5As in the UPSR this year.

The assistant minister also revealed that the school had a passing percentage of 40% for the examination.

He hoped that the school could further improve their achievements in the future.
