    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also want to commend the Minister and his staff for the funds they are providing for infrastructure to our primary and secondary schools. That is good enough but not adequate. Therefore, a little more will be required to bring our school infrastructure to the standards where they will be able to offer quality education. Regarding the issue of posting P1 teachers, although we have a shortage of teachers, we have enough trained teachers but they are just at home. While I do appreciate that the marginalized areas need to be considered, why would the Minister require that teachers from other areas who are idle human resource for this country be posted to the areas where there is shortage of teachers until they meet certain conditions? There could be a condition that you work there for two years and go to another area. Some schools have not had teachers in advantaged areas but there are teachers who are trained but not employed. I leave that issue to the Minister to consider but this is a human resource that is being wasted and yet we are one country. I want to support one of my colleagues who said that the requirement for P1 teachers should be brought down. If you require a D+ (Plus), consider that so that some areas do not permanently remain behind in the shortage of teachers."
