“The Education Ministry must launch an inquiry into this episode and set the record straight — that it is no offence to put up any decorations in schools during festive seasons such as Hari Raya, Chinese New Year or Deepavali,” Ramkarpal said in a statement. Pictures of the school festooned with lanterns and other red-coloured cut-outs deemed auspicious by ethnic Chinese have since spread on social media and were held up by Khairul as so-called proof of the religious propagation attempt.

“It is time for us to build bridges between races in this country at a time when racial tensions seem to be at an all-time high,” Ramkarpal added.
