Compulsory education

The Outlines of the State Policy (GBHN) 1993 stipulates that the aim of the second long-term development plan is to build an advanced and prosperous nation, materially and spiritually.

In this spirit, the government has determined that the 9-year compulsory education program will begin on May 2. President Soeharto appealed to all parties to participate in making the compulsory education program a success.

We have good reason to be optimistic that the program can be carried out successfully. But it is essential to create a climate that will develop innovation and creativity, which in turn will make Pancasila democracy flourish.
