>MALAYSIA - THE Education Ministry is not ready to supply free laptops to primary school students under the one laptop per child project as the cost will be staggering.
Deputy Education Minister Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong said the ministry would have to spend RM5.4 billion to provide 5.4 million pupils with laptops costing RM1,000 each.
The ministry would also have to replace faulty laptops every two or three years, he said when responding to a question from Zuraida Kamaruddin (PKR-Ampang).
