YAM Tunku Dara Tunku Tan Sri Naquiah binti Tuanku Ja’afar

“English is so important because it is the common language of the world. If you do not understand or speak English, how are you supposed to communicate?"

Tunku Dara holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Economics/Political Science from the American University in Cairo. She is a director of a number of companies, including Syarikat Pesaka Antah (SPA) and Hong Leong Industries Bhd. She is also a Governor of Kolej Tuanku Ja’afar in Pajam, Negeri Sembilan, a private boarding school. In 1980, she established the first local finishing school, Ecole de Belle Jeunesse, which provides personal development courses. Her aims and aspirations are to see women improving their lot in society, business and sport.



Dr. Anuar Osman
Vice-President ESU Malaysia

“By international standards the level of proficiency in English is good. But among the youth, the standard is deteriorating and this slide should be arrested. The ESU Malaysia can assist in maintaining and improving the standard.”


S. Radhakrishnan
Honorary Treasurer ESU Malaysia

“Of course there are many languages in the world. But the English language can serve as a unifying bond, bringing the world closer by communicating in a single language. This is the main aim of ESU Malaysia.”


Datin Shalini A. Ganendra
MA Hons.(Cantab), LL.M. Columbia University(Law)

“What we say and how we say it creates first and lasting impressions in all social contexts, whether professional or otherwise. Hence, proficiency in English provides avenues for personal and professional growth. Articulate presentation and written skills can unite the world in a skillful and positive manner.”

Given the current realisation of the importance of English, the government and people of this country have to come together to understand and better communicate with the world-at-large in the English language.”
