PUTRAJAYA: Home Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin (pix) will meet with Johor Dong Zong and the Registrar of Societies (RoS) tomorrow to discuss the issue of its deregistration.
He said he understood that the deregistration of the Johor chapter of the Dong Zong (United Chinese School Committees’ Association) was due to management issues for not abiding by the RoS’ regulations.
“I have received a report and tomorrow they will come, I have invited the RoS too and we will see what can be done. What we can correct, we will,” he told reporters after the monthly assembly of the Ministry of Home Affairs (KDN), here today.
Last Sunday, Dong Zong was reported to have submitted a letter of appeal to the KDN on the deregistration of Johor Dong Zong by the state RoS.
Dong Zong central committee member Low Chee Chong was reported to say that on Aug 20, Dong Zong received a letter of deregistration dated Aug 8 from the Johor director of RoS Johor for not receiving an explanation for the changes to its constitution regarding the involvement of teachers. - Bernama
