STATELESS children adopted by Malaysians have been allegedly prevented from being enrolled in schools following a policy change that requires the children to produce passports to enrol in government schools.

Parent M. V. Krishnan, 64, said his 13-year-old adopted daughter was supposed to go to Form One this year but could not because of the new policy.
