Storytelling competition can foster unity in schools, says NGO

Azizah says students should not be confined to writing their pieces based on school history text books.

MELAKA: A non-governmental organisation (NGO) here is proposing that the Education Ministry launch a National Day storytelling competition on the contribution of various races towards nation building.

Melaka Consumer and Environment Association’s (PPASM) education and woman bureau chief Azizah Harun said the suggested competition must be in Bahasa Melayu and vernacular schools should be encouraged to participate.
