KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 19 (Bernama) — The MADANI Government has assured that the Finance Ministry’s RM30 million special allocation for the construction of additional blocks, replacement of facilities, and maintenance of Tamil National-Type Schools (SJKT) will be fully utilised with no leakages.
Deputy Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Minister Datuk Seri R. Ramanan said the assurance was communicated during an engagement session with the schools’ board of governors (LPS) and headmasters, which he co-chaired with Deputy Education Minister Wong Kah Woh recently.
“We also want to ensure that every sen of the RM30 million allocation announced by the Prime Minister is utilised for its intended purpose without any leakages, abuse of power or unnecessary bureaucratic delays,” he said in a Facebook post today.
The engagement session was a continuation of two earlier meetings on Aug 29 and Sept 4, which determined that the LPS and headmasters be invited to the discussion table so that all proposals, needs, and school development priorities could be discussed directly, openly and inclusively.
For this session, four schools were involved: SJKT Klebang, Perak; SJKT Ladang North Hummock, Selangor; SJKT Ladang Kulai Besar, Johor; and SJKT Ladang Rini, Johor.
Ramanan said the session was crucial to ensure that each school received the necessary facilities, including additional classrooms, laboratories, libraries, safety features and basic maintenance.
He thanked Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek for her close cooperation and efforts to expedite processes within the ministry.
The meeting was also attended by representatives from Yayasan Didik Negara and the relevant State Education Departments to ensure the projects run smoothly and comply with technical guidelines.
“The MADANI Government will continue to ensure that every promise is fulfilled, every allocation is fully utilised, and every school is developed for the benefit of our children,” he added.
