Many countries suffer from not only the absence of quality education, but lack of accessibility even if available. Across Southeast Asia, for instance, despite lip service on the part of leaders like Thailand’s Prayuth Chan-ocha, the results are relatively disappointing. According to 2015 OECD ratings, 42 percent of Indonesian students were not meeting science, mathematics or reading standards. The so-called PISA ratings ranked Vietnam 32nd in reading, Malaysia 49th, and Thailand at the bottom in reading, mathematics and science. According to UNESCO’s Education Strategy 2014-2021 report, some 774 million adults, of which two-thirds are women, could neither read, nor write in 2011. More than half lived in South and West Asia, a fourth in sub-Saharan Africa. Ten countries alone represent 72 percent of the total. Illiterates in sub-Saharan Africa actually increased by 37 percent over the past 20 years to reach 182 million in 2011. Those figures have hardly improved over the past decade. The world total was expected to reach 743 million in 2015, a reduction of only 16 percent as against those in 1985-1994. Literacy, beyond being a basic competency, is also a prerequisite to access to all forms and all levels of apprenticeship in life as well as a base enabling quality education for all. Yet fewer than 3 percent of national education budgets in poor countries are devoted to literacy and adult education programs.
