When the second movement control order (MCO) was announced yesterday, Muhammad Faidz Zainal Abidin was not worried about his work.



His two sons, aged 13 and eight, have missed almost a whole year of school and he and his wife have been diligently making sure that they attend their online classes and do their schoolwork.
