Ahmad Zahid Hamidi says this following revelation that the Darul Quran Ittifaqiyah tahfiz school has been operating without permit.
SIBU: Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has spoken out against the weaknesses in the administration of tahfiz schools in the country, after an early morning fire in the city killed 23 students and two teachers in the worst such tragedy involving such schools.
“This is not the first time, we are very concerned, we know that every two or three years, there is such an incident involving fire or building collapse, just like in this school,” Zahid told Bernama.
His remarks come after a revelation that the Darul Quran Ittifaqiyah tahfiz school in Jalan Keramat, Kuala Lumpur is not registered with the relevant authorities including the Ministry of Education.
Zahid said the federal government had agreed to let state authorities to handle issues related to religion including religious schools, but added that the concerns over the manner these schools were being administered have always been viewed with suspicion.
“We see the level of security or standard operating procedure in schools not followed or compromised, but (they) view our monitoring as an interference in their administration,” Zahid was quoted as saying by Bernama during a working visit to Sarawak.
Twenty-five people including two teachers were killed after a fire ripped through the top floor of the school’s three-storey building in Jalan Keramat Ujung, Kuala Lumpur.
Kuala Lumpur Fire and Rescue Department chief Khirudin Drahman said the incident was the country’s worst fire disaster in two decades.
Police said the school management was being investigated over allegations that the building has no valid permit.
Urban Wellbeing, Housing and Local Government Minister Noh Omar had earlier confirmed that the school did not have a valid permit from the fire department.
“The school had submitted the architectural plan to the department. However, the department had not given the school permission to use the building,” he said, but added that no action would be taken on the school as it has “suffered enough”.
