“We have identified those affected ones and once we’ve gathered and verified all the relevant data, the assistance will be provided as soon as possible”, said Fadhlina during her visit to the temporary relief center at Masjid Putra Heights in Puchong.

The Minister emphasized that the MOE is committed to ensuring the welfare of students and teachers, particularly those from 23 affected schools. She noted that some victims lost all their school supplies and personal documents, making the financial aid crucial in helping them rebuild their academic lives.

Beyond assistance, the MOE will activate counselling teams and academic support units at relief centers to help students cope with the upcoming school term. The State Education Department (JPNS) has also been tasked with monitoring the situation to ensure that affected  students receive necessary support.
