(FMT) – A coalition of 30 national NGOs and parties from the peninsula, Sabah and Sarawak has urged the government to put the implementation of Jawi script on hold until a transparent and proper discussion with all relevant parties is held.

Coalition of Seni Khat Action Team (Sekat) secretary Arun Dorasamy said there had been no presentation or discussion by the education ministry, adding that the decision was made in such a rush.
