changes of the words in

bill on this law.

should not be shortened
in the law and fully
defined the term of preschool
that aims to nurture
physical, mental and moral
practices of the children
before proceeding to learn
higher levels.

of ?mother ethnic
language? with ?individual
ethnic language? in the

teaching aids and methodologies
