Even in the 1960’ the headmasters at the Sekolah Rendah Jenis Kebangsaan Inggeris (NTPES) Tumpat during my time had Mr.Raghavan and subsequently Mr.Harbajan Singh as headmasters.
At our secondary national school we had Mr. Cheah Thang Tuy as our headmaster we had scores of other Indian teachers; Mr.Bani, Mr.Nathan, Mr. Maniam, Ms Kaur, etc. What more non Malay headmasters in the West Coast states and the missionary schools.
But today Indian and other non malay headmasters have dwindled to an estimated 0.1%. This is ethnic cleansing from schools.
All under UMNOs’ racist religious extremist and supremacist policies.
