EDUCATION is a strong driver of social mobility and is critical to breaking the poverty cycle between generations, a point that was made by Minister for Education (Schools) Ng Chee Meng at the sixth annual global Credit Suisse philanthropists forum on Thursday.
This, as educational giving could enable the next generation to improve many aspects of their lives, be it health or income, he said.
