Pacific Asia: these are societies and cultures which place a high value on education... this belief that a poor person from a far-flung corner of the empire, through a combination of talent and hard work can make it into the elite - this sounds like an argument in favour of grammar schools. But this is not quite what we have seen with the recent "handover" of power in China where only Communist Party members qualified for entry into the ruling elite.
Pacific Asian systems have often had long-term technocratic and strategic approaches to improving their education systems, with excellent civil servants in the lead- long-term policies on education are impossible while the political parties are unable to reach consensus or even to agree openly that the comprehensive system has failed (an admission of which would require embarrassing public apologies).
