Critic of Muhyiddin’s statement against Dong Jiao Zong (15-4-2012)
郭素沁指慕希丁对董教师资短缺大会的批评， 显示他否定国内华小师资短缺问题的严重性 （吉隆坡15日讯）士布爹区国会议员郭素沁指副首相兼 教育部长慕希丁对董教总上个月主办师资短缺抗议大会的批评，显示他否定国内华小师资短缺问题的严重性，看来也不会对这问题采取行动。 她说，“身为教育部长，慕希丁应该关注国内所有源流学校面对的问题，而不是关注国小的发展吧了。” 她也指出，当副教长魏家祥声称教育部已经针对华小师资短缺问题拟定解决方案后，身为教长的慕希丁却又否定华小师资不足，并声称国小也面对同样问题，这显示出他对于解决华小师资不足问题没有诚意，魏家祥之前所作解决华小师资不足的方案，看来也不会落实。 她也说，董教总已经否认魏家祥在师资短缺抗议大会被打，而雪州总警长也否认这指责，董教总甚至把魏家祥出席该大会的录像带放上网。很遗憾的，慕希丁仍然公然的指魏家祥在董教总抗议大会上被打，这分明就是刻意混淆视听，乘机丑化董教总和淡化华小师资短缺的严重性。 郭素沁
