NIBONG TEBAL: The Education Ministry will grant teacher Izzuddin Izhar, better known as Cikgu Din, a temporary placement at a school in Kelantan as requested, allowing him to be with his wife as she battles stage four cancer.

Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek (pic) explained that the placement will enable Cikgu Din to fulfil his teaching duties, while also being close to his wife as she battles her illness.

She added that discussions between Cikgu Din and the Sarawak and Kelantan Education Departments, along with the Education Ministry, have progressed smoothly.

"We will manage Cikgu Din's situation with utmost care. Insya-Allah, this temporary placement order will allow him to be with his wife during this challenging time.

"Let us pray for Cikgu Din to be given strength and patience, and for his wife’s recovery,” she said to reporters, after officiating the Madani Education Carnival and the Vocational Collge (KV) Madani Insani Rakyat programme, at Sekolah Kebangsaan Sungai Bakap, here, on Saturday (Oct 26).
