We can have a compassion week, says civil advocate

Jahaberdeen: Having replica firearms in schools is an offence under the Firearms Act.

PETALING JAYA: The decision to introduce Palestine Solidarity Week in schools was an unwise one, says civil advocate Datuk Seri Dr Jahaberdeen Mohamed Yunoos.

“My personal view is that it is not a good idea to introduce this in schools. We have never had a solidarity week for the oppression in Myanmar and other oppression going around the world,” said the founder of Rapera, a movement which promotes thinking and compassion.
