PETALING JAYA: Former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has criticised Dr Maszlee Malik, saying that the Education Minister seemed to be preoccupied with the colour of school shoes and socks.

"Our Education Minister is foresighted. I don't understand why there are people who criticise him. The colour of shoes and socks are actually important in the development and formation of exemplary students," he sarcastically on his Facebook page on Monday (Oct 15).
