KUALA LUMPUR: Education Minister Dr Maszlee Malik did not say that the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) case would be part of the new History syllabus, said his press secretary Shahrul Aman Mohd Saari.

"Media reports quoting Dr Maszlee saying that the 1MDB case will be in the History syllabus are inaccurate. Whether it will be included in the syllabus depends on the Education Ministry's curriculum study committee," said Shahrul.
