BN leaders defend vernacular schools

KLUANG: Barisan Nasional leaders have come out to reassure Malaysians that the Government has no plans to abolish vernacular schools, adding that they remain part of the country’s educational system.

This comes as Petaling Jaya Utara Umno deputy chief Mohamad Azli Mohemed Saad called for the party’s coming general assembly to discuss the possibility of abolishing Chinese primary schools.
