Fulcrum

A commentary in The Fulcrum asks which children stand to benefit from the slogan "Make Education Great Again." The piece questions whether education policy debates actually serve all students or only some, pressing on equity in who gains from proposed reforms. It frames education as a contested political promise rather than a shared goal.

Malaysia's Islamic party PAS is reported to be reshaping its international engagement, moving from a focus on Islamist solidarity towards what analysts describe as development diplomacy. An analysis published by Fulcrum examines whether the party's foreign outreach now prioritises economic cooperation and development partnerships over its traditional religious and ideological networks, and what that shift means for its political positioning.
