Academic group urges govt to expedite distribution of laptops for students, vaccination for teachers

KUALA LUMPUR, July 1 ― The Malaysian Academic Movement called on the government today to distribute the rest of the 150,000 laptops promised to students by the Ministry of Education in February and to vaccinate teachers as soon as possible.

“The various movement control orders notwithstanding, MoE should have assessed the situation and worked out a strategy to get the devices to the needy students.Gerak also disagree with the government's decision to close schools, saying that the decision was haphazard when the government’s online education initiatives were not effective.

“The government is reportedly going to distribute more than 14 million doses of vaccine to all states in July. This provides the perfect opportunity for this government to right a wrong by prioritising education workers in this programme,” it said.
