Probe launched over ‘Bahasa only’ claim

BENTONG: The Malaysian Exami­nation Board has been directed to investigate a claim that UPSR invigilators at several Chinese national-type schools in Penang were not allowed to read the instructions in the examination papers in any other another language except in Ba­­­hasa Melayu.

Deputy Education Minister Chong Sin Woon, who issued the directive, said there had been no circular or instruction issued on the matter.
