esearch, stakeholder interviews on the ground, and consolidated<br />

analysis. The <strong>Blueprint</strong> draws on findings from the final report<br />

published in April 2012.<br />

analyses conducted By<br />

world BanK<br />

The World Bank was commissioned in the first quarter of 2010 to<br />

undertake a full review of public expenditure (the Public Expenditure<br />

Review) in Malaysia. Within the scope of the World Bank study, the<br />

Ministry of Education’s expenditure and organisation were examined.<br />

The Ministry’s Project Taskforce has used the World Bank’s research<br />

as the basis for the diagnostic of the Ministry’s financial systems and<br />

processes and its organisational structure. The analyses from the<br />

World Bank were compared against the findings of the Ministry to<br />

identify inconsistencies or discrepancies.<br />

The National Dialogue was launched in April 2012, to gather feedback<br />

and input from the rakyat on the education system. Input was gathered<br />

in a variety of formats to ensure the feedback gathered was inclusive<br />

and robust, including through public townhalls, submitted in written<br />

form as memoranda, closed door roundtable discussions and online<br />

forums. Suggestions raised were carefully considered and incorporated<br />

into the initiatives developed for the <strong>Blueprint</strong> (refer to Appendix III<br />

for more details).<br />

Townhall meetings were the primary mode for gathering open<br />

feedback on a large, broad scale. These were held across all fourteen<br />

dialogues and roundtable discussions comprised twelve experts in<br />
