Tangerang to have an integrated lab

TANGERANG: Tangerang municipal administration will build an
integrated laboratory in Batu Ceper subdistrict in 2004 in a bid
to support study from students in elementary, junior and senior
high school levels.

Chief of Tangerang Education Agency, Harry Mulya Zain, said on
Thursday that many schools in the municipality could not afford
to provide a laboratory in their respective school

"The integrated laboratory will have three laboratories for
language, chemistry and biology subjects," he said.

Harry also said that the agency would revoke decree staying
that certain schools having a laboratory were included as
favorite schools.

"Starting in January, all schools in Tangerang will have an
equal status so the quality on education will also be the same,"
he said.

Harry said that the agency would also allow students to use
used books after receiving protest from parents who complained
that their children must buy new books every new academic year.
