In 2015, every one of Myanmar’s children will receive some form of education and the literacy rate will be raised above 95.5 percent announced Union Minister for Education, Dr Khin San Yi on September 8.

The Minister was speaking at a ceremony held in Nay Pyi Taw at the Myanmar International Convention Centre II Nay to mark International Literacy Day.
 
She said the Union ministry would cooperate with its equivalents in the regions and states and would also be working with the United Nations and other international organisations to achieve these aims.

She added that these targets would be achieved “using three educational methods; school education, non-school education and self-study.”
