I think this is related to the SMSes flying around among the Indian community (I received it about 5 times). The article in the Star did not mention any details, but the SMS said its SM Anderson, Ipoh and the teacher’s name is Kamaruzaman. In order to avoid blowing up the issue, the news also did not mention that he uttered the words “ini agama syaitan” (referring to Hinduism). Of course this is the students’ word against his, so there’s virtually no way to prove it. » Read more: Apology for agama syaitan?

The school may have had good intentions, but to have students to do it during Moral Education, while the muslim students go for religious classes sent the wrong signal to the parents. In this time of heightened sensitivities and tension, the school should have done this toilet-cleaning activity in a better way, maybe on Saturday or Sunday…with parents and all. » Read more: Cleaning toilet during Moral class
