PETALING JAYA: Former education minister Maszlee Malik has expressed shock over the number of schools that were dilapidated and waiting to be upgraded under Projek Daif.
He tweeted today that 104 school renovation projects for 2021 had not started and none had been completed by Oct 5.
Yesterday, he told Parliament that he was unable to access the Projek Daif portal as it showed a “404 error”, indicating a problem with the server.
According to the portal, the neglected school renovation projects included 59 schools in Sarawak, 30 in Sabah, five in Kedah, two each in Perak and Terengganu, and one school each in Labuan, Johor, and Selangor.
Maszlee asked education minister Radzi Jidin to reveal the progress of the work.
Yesterday, Radzi had told Parliament that the decision to put such schools on the list was based on the schools’ location, the scope of work involved and the cost.
