The country’s progress in early childhood education was in the spotlight yesterday at a special Commemorative Convocation Ceremony held at Dewan Seri Budiman where Datin Paduka Seri Rosmah Mansor was awarded an Honorary Doctorate in Education (Childhood Education).
In her acceptance speech, Datin Paduka Seri Rosmah Mansor thanked the university for the award and spoke extensively on her commitment to work diligently in building a network of quality early childhood education centres for children below the age of 5, under the auspices of the PERMATA Negara project, to help children of the nation reach their fullest potential. She stated that providing regulated, equitable and accessible early childhood education to all was central to the nation’s development and human resource agenda and it was an honour to be able to do so with the support of the Prime Minister.
She dedicated the award to PERMATA Negara, the organisation she founded with a group of professionals from various quarters, saying that the recognition for their work would serve to invigorate their efforts further. Datin Paduka Seri Rosmah extolled the dedication of the professionals behind PERMATA Negara, saying that the exemplary initiatives undertaken by the organisation had produced children who exceeded the international milestone measuring self-esteem, maturity and communicative skills.
