KUALA LUMPUR – Senior Education Minister Datuk Mohd Radzi Md Jidin wants the issue of teachers appointed in June 2020 on a contract of service (CoS) basis – whose contracts are due to expire this June – to be given attention and resolved immediately.

Radzi, in a post on his Facebook and Twitter accounts today, said that the matter related to teachers’ concern about the expiring CoS contract was raised in the comments section on his social media accounts recently and drew his attention.

“I have instructed that this matter be given attention and resolved immediately. MoE (Education Ministry) and SPP (Education Service Commission) are taking appropriate action in accordance with the existing rules and procedures,” he said.

He said an announcement on the matter would be made once the process was completed.

He added that the MoE was concerned about the education issues raised by the community and was committed to doing the best for the educational well-being of the country’s future generation. – Bernama, May 4, 2022
