PERAK MIC has identified six areas for the building of new Tamil schools in the state, according to Tamil Nesan.State MIC chief and state executive councillor Datuk G. Rajoo said the party had requested land from the state government to build the schools.
He said many people were moving to the town areas where there were ample job opportunities. This resulted in the closure of some Tamil schools in the estates.
Rajoo said there have been more requests for schools from Indians living in towns. He said he had brought the matter of more Tamil schools to the attention of the Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Tajol Rosli Ghazali. He said that application for land would be submitted to the state government and also approval would be sought from the Education Department for the building of these Tamil schools.
