The same point as made against other Asian education system as well, especially that of Japan. HKDan, I agree with you 100% on that. Been making similar suggestions before.

a large investment in universal education might be a good place to start.
and other things, such as value technical/vocational trainings, as not everyone's kid can be lawyers and doctors.


Wen said education spending would this year rise 45 percent, the health budget would go up 25 percent and funding for social security would jump 19.8 percent.

Those rises were larger than the 17.6-percent increase in the military budget the government announced on Tuesday.


the 45 % increase is not good enough, in light of the fact most of the funding will not make it to the migrate workers (as you noted already)
