Concerns surrounding new education minister

  • Monday, 21 May 2018

SINCE Dr Maszlee Malik was appointed Education Minister, I have received scores of calls, WhatsApp messages and enquiries about him. I have hesitated to provide any comments as I have inadequate knowledge and minimal interaction with Dr Maszlee. I am also worried about my own biases and may not do justice to both Dr Maszlee and the enquirers.

Perhaps I will share my biases first and propose some ideas to rectify the concerns.
