At the National Day Rally 2019 on 18 August 2019, PM Lee commended the progress of the Singaporean Malay community in education.

"Our Malay community has progressed because of your emphasis on education. Each successive generation of Malays has been better educated, and thus held better jobs, and led more fulfilling lives, than the previous. As the idiom goes, bit by bit, it will become a hill. And perhaps even a mountain! I can cite many examples. One, as you can see from this photograph taken in 2007, the number of Anugerah Mendaki (Mendaki Awards) recipients who graduated with first class honours was only 7. But look at this picture taken last year. There were 70 of them! A ten-fold increase in 10 years!
Well done to the Malay community!"
