An investigation paper has been opened into academic Teo Kok Siong.
00:07
This comes after Teo allegedly criticised vernacular schools in a report by a news portal.
00:13
The senior fellow of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia's Ethnic Studies Institute allegedly
00:18
said that the Chinese community thought lowly of the Malays and that vernacular schools
00:23
were one obstacle in the way of national unity.
00:27
Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said Teo is being investigated under Section 505
00:33
of the Penal Code for public mischief and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia
00:38
Act 1998 for improper use of network facilities.
00:44
He called for an end to the debate on vernacular schools in Parliament, citing a recent federal
00:48
court decision on the matter.
00:51
In November, the Court of Appeal unanimously ruled that it is constitutional for vernacular
00:56
schools to use Mandarin or Tamil as their medium of instruction.
01:01
The federal court then dismissed a leave application by two Malay-Muslim interest groups to set
01:06
aside the Court of Appeal's ruling.
