UPDATED | Large DAP group objects to 'khat' in vernacular school syllabus
A group of 138 DAP grassroots office bearers, including 13 state assemblypersons, have urged DAP cabinet members to object to plans to introduce"khat" or calligraphy art in the Year 5 Bahasa Malaysia curriculum for vernacular schools.
The ministry stressed that subject matter did not pertain to Jawi scripts and students were not assessed on it in examinations. Citing the mandatory use of Jawi script on signboards in Kelantan and Terengganu, the group said similar measures are being institutionalised in Pahang and Malacca.
