[KiniNews] The PAS ulama wing has accused Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek of triggering an “unnecessary” polemic by assuring that school canteens will continue operating during Ramadan.
According to its leader Ahmad Yahaya, the ministry should instead focus on educating Muslim students about the importance of fasting and their non-Muslim counterparts to respect the practice.
“This can happen in a harmonious way without a directive for canteens to remain open when (Muslim) students are observing the Ramadan month," he said.
Meanwhile, in a separate story, former Malaysian Bar president Ambiga Sreenevasan has challenged Pakatan Harapan to let their lawmakers vote freely on the contentious citizenship amendments being proposed by the government.
This was amid continued backlash over the amendments, particularly those that would remove automatic citizenship for foundlings.
