MELAKA: A non-governmental organisation here is organising a gathering of parent-teacher associations (PTAs) to send a strong message to Education Minister Dr Mazlee Malik (pic) to “strengthen national unity among students”.

Melaka Consumer and Environment Association's (PPASM) Education and Woman bureau chief Azizah Harun said the decision to gather some 300 PTA representatives was made following mounting dissatisfaction among parents and teachers over apparent “topsy-turvy” policies by the Education Ministry.
