Few takers for jobs as Tamil school HMs

The Star

VACANCIES in many Tamil schools in Perak have not been filled for some time and this is worrying state MIC chief and state executive councillor Datuk V. Rajoo, according to the Tamil Nesan.

There are no headmasters in 17 Tamil schools while 20 schools have no deputy headmasters.

He said that it was the responsibility of the Education Ministry to ensure the vacant posts were filled as soon as possible.

He was speaking to reporters after opening the 16th annual meeting of the Perak Tamil Schools Headmasters Union at Dewan Serbaguna in Ipoh Saturday.

He said he has voiced his concern about the ministry's indifference to this matter to the Education Ministry’s parliamentary secretary, P. Komala Devi.
