The reason I am writing is to ask for a favor. I am assisting my mother in finding a school for the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia, Tan Sri Muyhiddin to visit in Columbus on the 11th of November. He will be here in to visit Ohio University to officiate the opening of the Malaysian Education Outreach event, which is sponsored by the Center for International Studies. He will also be in the Columbus area from November 9th to the 11th. Tan Sri Muyhiddin, in addition to holding the office of Deputy Prime Minister, also holds the portfolio of Education Minister of Malaysia. In this capacity as Education Minister, he has expressed a wish to visit a school or schools in the Columbus area that excel in academics and innovation. This is part of Malaysia�s efforts towards globalization, a project in which practices that are effective and beneficial throughout the world is inspected, evaluated, and imported into the Malaysian education system. Tan Sri Muyhiddin, the Center for International Studies, the Tun Abdul Razak Chair, and lastly, I, would be extremely grateful if you could suggest a school or schools in the Columbus area that you think would be of interest to the Deputy Prime Minister, and whose practices and philosophies would be beneficial to Malaysia. I realize that the 11th of November is Veteran's day, but if you know of any schools that may be open on that day, please let me know. Can you also forward this email to the COE or our programs listerv? Thank you!
