According to the order paper, the matter will be raised during the Ministers’ Question Time by Shaharizukirnain Abd Kadir (PN-Setiu) to the local government development minister.
During the question for oral answers session, P Prabakaran (PH-Batu) will ask the communications and digital minister to state whether the government intends to review the permission to use Telegram, Wechat, Michat, and some other chat applications seen to have a negative influence on the younger generation.
Also on the list is a question from Rushdan Rusmi (PN-Padang Besar) who will ask the prime minister to state the level of preparedness of disaster management agencies to face natural disasters such as the Batang Kali landslide.
There will also be a question by Hassan Abdul Karim (PH-Pasir Gudang) to the higher education minister on whether the government intends to repeal the 52-year-old University and University College Act 1971 and replace it with a new act in line with the current developments.
After the question-and-answer session, the house will continue with the winding-up of the debate on the royal address by the respective ministries.
