PROPHE Summary (by Prachayani
Praphamontripong)
The Pakistani government has stressed the role of private
sector in promoting higher education in order to help enhance low rates
of higher education enrollment and national literacy in a context of resource
constraints. Research-oriented education and modern teaching methods are
the prime foci of such a promotion. Notwithstanding a view that private
institutions have been providing laudable services and quality education,
the government will continue to monitor the performance of both private
and public institutions.
For the full story see The Pakistan Newswire (Pakistan Press
International), August 22, 2005, "Private sector can play vital
role in promotion of education," by Sheikhupura. PROPHE Observation (by Daniel C. Levy) Calling upon the private sector to help achieve great enrollment
increases is one of the most common themes worldwide. The article leaves
unclear whether the higher education research function is also expected
of private higher education. The article's worth lies in stating the government
position.
