THE Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) today announced that public and private institutions of  higher learning in the Klang Valley may conduct online or physical  Teaching and Learning ( (PdP) sessions during the 47th ASEAN Summit.

In a statement today, MOHE urged higher education institutions, particularly those located in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Putrajaya,  to review the locations, time and dates of the road closures that would be implemented from Oct 26  from 28.

According to MOHE, this aims to help institutions assess the need for online PdP sessions to ensure that their staff and students are not affected by traffic disruptions caused by road closures during the summit period.
