INIHAYAG noong Biyernes ni Senator Sherwin Gatchalian na 90 percent ng mga kabataan ay
hindi makabasa, ayon daw ito sa report ng World Bank (WB).


Ang datus ng WB ay base sa depinisyon ng pagbabasa na pagkuha, pag-unawa, at pagtanda
(to remember) sa ilang anyo impormasyon o ideya na nakasulat.


Dahil dito, sinabi ni Gatchalian sa TV program na The Source na pagtutuunan nang pansin ng
bagong K-10 kurikulum ang basic skills, reading, math, at writing. Ito ay ipatutupad sa
susunod na pasukan.
