Opposition MP questions Education Minister's silence on Zara Qairina case in Parliament


KUALA LUMPUR: An Opposition MP has questioned why Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek did not use her platform in the Dewan Rakyat to address the current issue of bullying in schools, particularly the case of Zara Qairina, whose death has sparked nationwide concern.

Afnan Hamimi Taib Azamudden (PN-Alor Setar) said more than half of the MPs who took part in the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) debates had raised the matter of bullying, yet Fadhlina made no reference to it in her winding-up speech.
