Canteens are where students eat, not storerooms, says Fadhlina


KUALA LUMPUR: Students should be able to eat in the comfort of school canteens and not in inappropriate areas like storerooms, says Fadhlina Sidek.

"I do not want to have the optics of non-Muslim students having to eat their meals in storerooms or inappropriate areas when all schools have canteens," said the Education Minister, adding that Muslim students who were fasting would be managed by their respective teachers.
