MELAKA: Any inaccurate facts in history textbooks will leave new students feeling cheated, says activist Mak Chee Kin (pic).

The Melaka Action Group for Parents in Education (Magpie) chairman said that any textbooks produced under the new Standardised Secondary School Cirruculum (KSSM) must be based on true facts.
Mak said that teachers and parents have voiced concerns over the Form Two history revision book, adding that the book disregards earlier civilisations.
