In the wake of the contentious inclusion of khat in the school syllabus, Deputy Education Minister Teo Nie Ching said she has nothing else to add on the issue after promising to hold more consultations when reviewing Bahasa Malaysia textbooks in the future.
Earlier this month, the ministry announced that six pages of khat lessons would be included in next year’s Standard Four Bahasa Malaysia textbook, and stressed that students would not be evaluated on the topic.
This was met with intense opposition from Chinese and Tamil educationist groups as well as DAP grassroots leaders.
The ministry then cut khat lessons to three pages, and made its teaching optional.
