The Melaka State Education Department said educational institutions under MOE will resume operations tomorrow, pending official confirmation of the latest API readings.

The department urged administrators to take appropriate measures to ensure smooth operations and comply with the ministry’s directives, while immediately suspending all outdoor activities and assemblies.
