KUALA LUMPUR: The breakfast scheme for students in national schools will continue but only for those who are deserving, says Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

The Prime Minister, who is also the acting Education Minister, said it would not be fair to provide breakfasts for all students across the board.

"The breakfast scheme for students will be continued, but only for those who cannot afford it.

"To provide breakfast to everyone means even those who are rich and (can afford to have) breakfast at home) will get them too. So, it's not fair.

"We will continue the scheme and add on only those who are deserving," said Dr Mahathir, who spoke to the media after officiating the Balai Islam Complex at Tenaga Nasional Bhd headquarters in Bangsar on Thursday (Jan 16).

Former education minister Dr Maszlee Malik had previously stated that the breakfast scheme would be for all students regardless of their income status.

apa beza dengan Rancangan Makanan Tambahan?

so RMT?

He macam fark maszlee hard2.. lol

Deserving... 🤔

Some kids are not worthy? :/ I know I know sure say like based on income bla bla, but
This might cause friction among the kids

Those that get will be looked down upon by peers as poor, those that don’t get will secretly envy of those that get the breakfast

rmt is not new lol

By-election day after tomorrow right?
Why no news, surrender already?

Hahahaa kan i dah kata

BN menang la tu... kimanis has always been BN's stronghold

Konon nak improvise tapi at the end, back to old scheme

So what does new gov bring in to the new malaysia?
