PUTRAJAYA: Allegations of Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) questions being sold online are currently under review by the Malaysian Examination Council, says Education director-general Dr Mohd Azam Ahmad.
He said no official report has been filed yet, but the Education Ministry is aware of the allegations being shared on social media.
“The Malaysian Examination Council has procedures in place to handle such matters, and for now we believe the situation is under control,” he said during a visit to SMK Putrajaya Presint 11(1) on Tuesday (Nov 25), the first day of the SPM examinations.
Separately, he said this year’s SPM marks a return to the original schedule after several years of delays caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
“We knew that returning SPM to November and December would bring challenges because of the rainy and flood seasons. But preparations started much earlier,” he said.
He added that Ops Payung has also been activated as part of preparedness efforts involving various agencies, including the National Security Council, Royal Malaysia Police, Fire and Rescue Department, Civil Defence Force and others.
