MANILA (AFP): The Asian Development Bank (ADB) yesterday approved a US$85 million loan to Indonesia to improve the quality of its Islamic senior secondary schools, the Philippines-based bank said in a statement.

The project would help narrow the gap between the senior secondary schools run by the Ministry of Religious Affairs, which are patronized by poorer students, and schools run by the education ministry, it said.
