Kim Kataguiri: This policy, mainly defended by the left, which voted against my educational merit project to reward the best students.
Kim Kataguiri: Ah, because rewarding the best students means improving the situation of the best, and when the best improves, the worst becomes more distant from the best.
That is to say, it is better for everyone to remain in mediocrity, it is better for everyone not to know how to do calculations, to be illiterate, than for you to reward the best.
Kim Kataguiri: Another point, continuous progression.
Kim Kataguiri: When I was president of the Education Committee, they would not let me approve the bill that ends continuous progression.
