GEORGE TOWN, Nov 14 — The Ministry of Education (MOE) is committed to streamlining approval for school construction, particularly for government-aided schools, so that education infrastructure projects can be carried out more smoothly.
Deputy Education Minister Wong Kah Woh said the ministry would help resolve issues related to documentation and administrative procedures once matters concerning sites and school enrolment needs had been settled.
“Over the past four years, under the Madani Government, we have worked to streamline all processes.
“If the new site has demand in terms of enrolment and the site-related issues have been resolved, then there is no issue for us to grant approval,” he told reporters after the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina (SJKC) Heng Ee building in Bayan Lepas here today.
