Education

A future-ready Malay/Muslim community, empowered towards a brighter future.

Malay/Muslim Singaporeans have made significant strides in education, excelling in various academic disciplines. The academic successes are largely attributed to the strong community support through Malay/Muslim organisations such as MENDAKI, AMP, and LBKM through financial assistance, scholarships and bursaries and mentoring of our young leaders. The Singapore Government also complements these efforts through national initiatives to ensure a better future powered by bright minds from the Malay/Muslim community.

Raikan Ilmu

Raikan Ilmu is a flagship movement of the Malay/Muslim community to celebrate knowledge and embrace lifelong learning as part of our culture. MENDAKI first introduced the Learning Festival on a weekend in 2002. In 2016, MENDAKI launched its 'Raikan Ilmu' (Celebrate Knowledge) campaign, expanding it to a week. In 2019, MENDAKI, together with the support of community partners, transformed Raikan Ilmu into a month-long campaign of fun-filled activities for all.
