SJK(T) Ladang Jeram

The MP requested the government to prioritize improving infrastructure and equipment for all schools, including Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Tamil) schools. The MP also inquired about the construction status of Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Tamil) Sungai Bakap and congratulated the Minister on the Prime Minister's announcement regarding the construction of Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Tamil) Ladang Jeram, which had been abandoned for approximately 20 years.

The MP congratulated the government on the announcement of the construction of Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Tamil) Ladang Jeram in Budget 2026 and asked when the project would commence and what facilities would be provided. He also inquired about the Ministry of Education Malaysia's plans to upgrade other dilapidated Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Tamil) schools and the relocation process for under-enrolled schools.

Tuan Wong Kah Woh, as Deputy Minister of Education, provided an update on the new Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Tamil) SJK(T) Ladang Jeram in Kuantan, Pahang. He stated that the Ministry of Education (KPM) was preparing initial works for the school on a three-acre federal land, which would include six classrooms and other facilities, with an allocation ceiling of RM22 million, as previously announced in the 2026 Budget.

The MP advocated for fixed and transparent funding for all school types, including Tamil-medium national-type schools SJK(T). He thanked the Prime Minister for a commitment to rebuild SJK(T) Ladang Jeram in Pahang but also highlighted that construction for SJK(T) Sungai Bakap and SJK(T) Serendah remained stalled, and many SJK(T)s nationwide were in a dilapidated (daif) condition requiring urgent attention.

The MP highlighted the successful construction of Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (Tamil) Ladang Jeram, where students had previously studied in containers for 20 years, praising the current government's action and criticising the previous administration for not addressing the issue.
