Tis all about the money


It was a little disconcerting for teachers to see how parents were so quick to be at school to claim the RM100 disbursed to their children but who would otherwise need lots of coaxing and reminders, when it comes to matters concerning their children’s progress and other issues.

THE RM100 schooling assistance that had been earlier announced in the 2012 Budget report has been disbursed in stages in most schools in the country. For the most part, it has been very enthusiastically received, particularly by the parents of the students involved.
