Religious affairs minister Mujahid Yusof says the issue is on the method of implementing Jawi and this requires constructive discussion among all parties.
He said they agreed that there was no motive of Islamisation in the move to introduce Jawi writing to non-Muslim students and accepted Jawi as part of the country’s cultural heritage that should be respected by all parties, like Chinese calligraphy, Tamil writing and those of other ethnic groups in the country.
Among those present at the one-and-a-half-hour meeting were United Chinese School Committees chairman Tan Tai Kim; Malaysian Association of Chinese School Teachers Association chairman Datuk Ong Chiow Chuen; the Federation of Chinese Associations Malaysia deputy secretary-general Yong Yew Wei and the Global Organisation of the People of Indian Origin president A Ravendiran Arjunan.
