Where Did Nie Ching And Zainuddin Maidin Come From

---

SCHOOLS, universities and other agencies under the Education Ministry are banned from subscribing to Malay broadsheetUtusan Malaysia and its weekend edition Mingguan Malaysia even if there are sponsors for them
Deputy Education Minister Teo Nie Ching reiterated that the decision to stop all subscription is based on the national newspaper’s past publication of content deemed to be racially and religiously provocative
“The news from these papers can be accessed online and other social media platforms. In general, the Education Ministry plans on subscribing newspapers that published values that unify the nation instead of the other way around
“We want to ensure that those involved in the education sector are able to make a balance and rational decision based on current events while accepting and respecting the multi religious, multi racial and multi lingual nature of Malaysia,” she said in the Dewan Rakyat
Teo was replying Hulu Terengganu MP Datuk Rasol Wahid who asked if the ministry would allow him or anyone else to sponsor and deliver the Umno-linked papers to schools in their personal capacity
But Teo was firm on the ban, for the time being at least
She pointed out that a former Utusan Malaysia chief editor Tan Sri Zainuddin Maidin had admitted that the two papers were nothing more than Umno’s mouthpiece
* WHERE DID TEO NIE CHING and ZAINUDDIN MAIDIN COME FROM? I thought both of them got brains to consider what is Bernama now, and what direction is the Chinese Press taking now
