PARLIAMENT | A commotion erupted in Dewan Rakyat after Deputy Education Minister Teo Nie Ching spoke about permission for opposition politicians to enter schools and campuses.

Teo denied that the government barred opposition politicians from entering schools, adding that politicians from both side of the divide have to apply before they are allowed to enter schools to attend programmes...
