NAJIB MISSES OPPORTUNITY IN PENANG TO ANNOUNCE THAT VERNACULAR SCHOOLS WHETHER PRIMARY OR SECONDARY ARE ABSORBED INTO THE NATIONALEDUCATION SYSTEM
PM Najib plays cool with a visit to Penang to announce that he endorses the
continued existence of chinese vernacular schools by handing out a million
ringgit to each school. it is a clever move, as Penang is the home of many
chinese voters and houses the famous chung ling secondary college.
By this move he hoped to win back the Chinese vote which have swung towards
the Opposition throughout the country and even to Sarawak,where the chinese
majority city of Sibu overwhelmingly voted for the DAP at the recent State
elections.
