IMO, low literacy rates like this come not from bad or underfunded education.

They come from deeper social problems that can't be solved by better schools.

can't be solved *exclusively* by better schools.

Better funded and operated schools and education system will help, but many people don't value their own or their childrens' education, see it as worthless or even detrimental, as propaganda and brain washing. You can't fix that without addressing the parents' attitudes as much as the kids and teachers and their funding and administration. Among a thousand other things.
