PASIR MAS: Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) 2021 candidates affected by floods can turn up at the examination centres out of their school uniforms, says Education Minister Datuk Dr Radzi Jidin.

“It is okay for the affected candidates to wear whatever clothes available. In a crisis situation, we cannot be too selective. It is important for the children to be calm when going to the examination centres,” he said.
