PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal has fixed Nov 23 to decide on the appeal by four non-governmental organisations including the Islamic Education Development Council , over the issue of vernacular schools and the use of Mandarin and Tamil in the schools involved.
Mappim, Gapena, Ikatan Muslimin Malaysia and Ikatan Guru-Guru Muslim Malaysia are appealing against the decision of the Kuala Lumpur and Kota Baru High Courts which dismissed their suits in December 2021 and May 2022 respectively. In May 29 last year, Kota Baru High Court judicial commissioner Abazafree Mohd Abbas who is now a High Court judge, also ruled that the existence of vernacular schools was constitutional and dismissed the suit filed by I-Guru.
The Malaysia Chinese Language Council, the Malaysia Tamil Neri Kalagam Association, the Confederation of Former Tamil School Pupils, MCA and the United Chinese School Committees Association of Malaysia were allowed to become interveners in the suit filed by I-Guru. "However, we argue that our friend has erred because vernacular schools involve Article 152 and not Article 12 of the Federal Constitution," he said.
