 \nPisa:Is Indonesia closing in on Malaysia?  \nThe recent release of theProgramme for InternationalStudent Assessment (Pisa)2025results offers Malaysia andIndonesia another opportunity tolook at that question.  \nBut perhaps the more interest-ing story is not who is ahead,buthow quickly the distance betweenthem is changing.  \nMalaysia remains ahead ofIndonesia in three core Pisadomains-science,mathematicsand reading-with gaps ofbetween 28 and 33 points.At firstglance,Malaysia is performingbetter.But rankings can hidemovement,and that is where themore interesting story begins.  \nAccording to the Organisationfor Economic Co-operation andDevelopment(OECD),which con-ducts the global Pisa study,thegap between Malaysia andIndonesia has narrowed substan-tially since 2018 in all threedomains,from between 44 and 62points to between 28 and 34points.  \nThe OECD describes this as a  \nmore positive trend for  \nIndonesian students than for  \nMalaysian students across all  \nthree subjects.This does not  \nmean Indonesia has solved its  \neducation problems,nor does itmean Malaysia has lost its educa-tional strengths.Rather,it tells ussomething more interesting:theeducational landscape of South-East Asia is moving.  \nThat movement mattersbecause Pisa 2025 comes at a par-ticularly difficult moment for edu-cation systems everywhere.  \nAcross the OECD,average per-formance in mathematics andreading reached its lowest levelever recorded in Pisa.Readinghas deteriorated sharply over thepast decade,while mathematicshas also experienced a significantlong-term decline.At the sametime,artificial intelligence(AI)israpidly changing how studentsaccess information,write,calcu-late and learn.  \nFor South-East Asia,this createsa double challenge.Countriesmust improve foundational learn-ing while preparing students for aworld where technology can per-form tasks that schools once treat-ed as evidence of intelligence.  \nAI may be able to summarisean article,generate an explana-tion or solve an equation,but stu-dents still need to understand theanswer before they can judgewhether it is correct.A student  \nwho struggles to read criticallywill also struggle to evaluateAI-generated information.A stu-dent without mathematical rea-soning may accept an impres-sive-looking calculation withoutnoticing that it is wrong.  \nTechnology therefore does notmake basic competencies lessimportant.It makes them moreimportant.Malaysia's experiencewith AIillustrates the scale of thistransformation.In 2025,56%ofMalaysian students reportedusing AI chatbots to help themlearn at least once a week,com-pared with 46%across the OECD.  \nMalaysian students also report-ed using AI for preliminaryresearch,summarising texts anddrafting written assignments atrelatively high rates.  \nThe question is no longerwhether AI will enter the class-room.It already has.The realquestion is whether educationsystems can teach students to useit without allowing the technologyto replace the intellectual workthat education is supposed todevelop.  \nThat question extends beyondMalaysia and Indonesia.It is anAsean question.South-East Asia isnot a single educational system.  \nSingapore operates at a very dif-ferent level of performance fromIndonesia,Malaysia,Thailand,Vietnam,Cambodia and thePhilippines.  \nThe Pisa 2025 results show sub-stantial differences across theregion,but also reveal somethingelse:several South-East Asian sys-tems are changing in differentdirections and at different speeds.  \nSingapore remains among theworld's highest-performing sys-tems,while countries such asCambodia","cbCaidvck7rAL0NV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidvck7rAL0NV","pdf",830592,"English","# Pisa: Is Indonesia Closing in on Malaysia?\n## Malaysia–Indonesia gap trends since 2018\n## Pisa 2025 in a difficult global education moment\n## The dual challenge of foundational skills and AI judgement\n## Lessons for South-East Asia and future education maps","[{\"question\":\"What does PISA 2025 show about Malaysia and Indonesia?\",\"answer\":\"Malaysia remains ahead in science, mathematics, and reading, but the OECD reports the gap has narrowed substantially since 2018 in all three domains.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is PISA 2025 considered important beyond who ranks higher?\",\"answer\":\"The focus shifts from static ranking positions to how quickly the distance between the two countries is changing.\"},{\"question\":\"How does AI create a double challenge for education systems?\",\"answer\":\"AI can summarize, explain, and solve problems, but students still must understand answers to judge correctness, and they need critical reading and mathematical reasoning to evaluate AI-generated information.\"}]","Pisa: Is Indonesia Closing in on Malaysia?
