In the meantime, we confuse lack of education and academic papers with incompetence. We have high-ranking Cabinet secretaries who do not have university qualifications - and according to our government, they are performing their duties, safe from a few 'frog' noises from discontented opposition members who do not want good for the country.
In a country with a literacy level above 82 per cent, one does not need a degree or diploma to be appointed as an ambassador. Therefore, if we do not require education for a high-ranking diplomat (who is our face in another country), why on earth do we need a public servant to hold a genuine academic qualification?
