KUALA TERENGGANU (Terengganu, Malaysia), March 17 (Bernama) -- The hit animation series "Upin and Ipin" which is much loved by Malaysian children is now being used as an educational tool to teach Bahasa Malaysia (Malaysian Language) in China especially at Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) and University of Peking.
Acting dean of Malay studies faculty at BFSU, Profesor Dr Awang Sariyan said the series was very popular among the faculty students and that each of them had a collection of CDs of the cartoon.
Speaking to Bernama after attending the International Bahasa Malaysia Education Seminar which concluded here Thursday, he said the students had sourced the CDs directly from Malaysia.
He urged Malaysians to take advantage of the development by coming up with more such educational tools as there was a ready market for them abroad.
