马国教育部长突宣布辞职
马来西亚教育部长马智礼今日在马国政坛抛下震撼弹,突然宣布辞职,即日起生效。
他在今日召开新闻发布会上表示,在征询马国首相马哈迪的意见后,决定辞去教育部长一职。
据了解马哈迪有意改组内阁,而教育部因为一系列政策引发争议,例如换黑鞋政策、承认统考议题以及最近的华小和淡小,纳入认识爪夷文课程等,一些政策被视为导致马国希盟政府失民心的根源。
在他任内推行一些政策也面对一些阻碍,例如承认统考政策不得不U转、要推行学校营养早餐计划,不过碍于多数学校未准备好,只得分阶段进行。
消息指马哈迪已有意撤换他,此前也传出马智礼将辞职的消息。相信敦马有意让后者“体面下台”,让他选择自行辞职。
马智礼在涉足政治前是一名学者,积极在发表时事评论,加入土著团结党两个月后即被委以重任,攻打新邦令金并成功当选。
至于马国首相署也发表声明,证实已接受马智礼辞呈。
