教育部应暂停推行”挺巴周”,并与各造对话寻求共识
(吉隆坡28日讯)行动党全国副主席郭素沁呼吁教育部暂停于本月29日在全国中小学校园启动的“挺巴周”,并与各支持与反对这活动的教育界和与家长代表们对话后,才决定是否要继续这声援巴勒斯坦人民的活动。 她说,自教育部长宣布29日开始的”挺巴周” 后,引起各造的反对,多个机构认为教育部把国际冲突带进校园的做法不妥当。 郭素沁说,教育部应该正视这些反对的声浪,并与教育界及反对者进行交流,以确保”挺巴周” 不至于乖离原来的宗旨。 日前,某中学在挺巴活动上,喊口号、举巨型玩具枪,暴力成份极重。这样的活动是令人担忧的。 她认为,少小学生心智尚未全面成熟,如果错误的灌输,崇尚暴力来解决冲突,以暴制暴,世界将永无宁日。 郭素沁
