The school, in a joint statement with the school board and parents-teachers association (PIBG), expressed regret for the incident, attributing it to staff oversight, Bernama reported.
“The incident occurred on the afternoon of Aug 1, when a school employee was installing national flags before the end of the workday.
“Due to carelessness, one of the flags was hoisted upside down,” it was quoted as saying in a statement posted on the school’s Facebook page.
The school said it was alerted about the error at around 5pm and immediately rectified it, acknowledging public concern following the circulation of photos of the flag on social media.
SJKC Chung Hua said it remains committed to respecting national symbols and will improve internal oversight to avoid future incidents.
Meanwhile, education minister Fadhlina Sedek said that stern action will be taken against the school after a full investigation is completed and the report is submitted to the ministry, BuletinTV3 reported.
“We are currently awaiting the full investigation, and I want to emphasise that once we receive the report, action will be taken based on the findings of the investigation.
Fadhlina said that her ministry has repeatedly reminded all parties about this issue, and the same problem should not have happened again.
“I constantly stress the importance of sensitivity, responsibility, and commitment when it comes to the Jalur Gemilang, especially as we approach National Day. This mistake should not have occurred,” she said after an event in Kota Bharu today, according to BuletinTV3. - FMT
