This is indeed a great news if successful. Something that was not done for past 50 years but is finally proposed now. Even though it may not amount to much, but will reduce burden of the schools a bit. Many tamil schools are in estate lands where some management pay the quit rent, while others have to pay themselves. The goal is to ensure that all schools are converted to fully-aided status, and put all students as equals without any discrimination. » Read more: RM1 quite rent proposed for all schools in Penang
