By IAN YEE

Helping to make a difference: Khairy, seen in a screencap from his StandTogether interview, has called on MPs to support students’ initiatives during the next Parliament sitting.

PETALING JAYA: Rembau MP Khairy Jamaluddin has called on Members of Parliament to join Ma­­lay­­sian schools in observing Natio­nal Kindness Week on the first week of April, to help end the increasingly “hateful” rhetoric across the country.

The #StandTogether National Kindness Week campaign by R.AGE and SP Setia aims to empower students to create a culture of kindness in schools, and Khairy hopes all Malaysians will follow the students’ example.
