NUMBER OF STUDENTS WHO PASSED CHINESE SENIOR MIDDLE III, SECONDARY IV AND CAMBRIDGE SCHOOL CERTIFICATE EXAMINATIONS IN 1962 IN GOVERNMENT SERVICE

Mr Lin You Eng asked the Minister for Education how many students passed in 1962 (a) the Chinese Senior Middle III Examination, (b) the Chinese Secondary IV Examination, and (c) the Cambridge School Certificate Examination; and how many of them in each case have been employed in the Government service.

Mr Yong Nyuk Lin: The number of students who passed the following examinations held in 1962 were as follows:- Chinese Senior Middle III Examination 366 (the last of its kind) Chinese Secondary IV examination 2,331 Cambridge School Certificate Examination 4,532

As regards the latter part of the question seeking information as to the number in each case having been employed in Government service, may I remind the Member for Moulmein for the third time that he has the wrong address? He should be directing the question to my colleague, the Minister for Finance.
