In line with the 46th ASEAN Summit scheduled to take place in Kuala Lumpur, the Ministry of Education has approved online learning for 71 schools in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor from 26 to 28 May. While students will continue lessons from home, working adults are also encouraged to adopt work from home arrangements.

The summit is expected to bring leaders and delegates from across Southeast Asia, resulting in increased security and extensive road closures around key venues. To avoid disruption, the Ministry of Education shifted affected schools to home-based teaching and learning, known as PdPR, so that students can continue their lessons without delay.

This temporary arrangement is not limited to schools. Employees working in busy areas should also consider staying off the roads. Adopting a work from home approach will reduce traffic congestion, ease movement for emergency and security services, and help the summit proceed smoothly.

Working from home during this time is not just convenient. It is a responsible choice that supports the country’s efforts, keeps employees safe, and allows for continued productivity in a less stressful environment. With digital tools already in place for many workplaces, the transition should be smooth and effective.

If your job allows it, this is the perfect opportunity to avoid unnecessary travel. Stay connected, stay safe, and support Malaysia as it hosts this important regional event.

Parents and guardians are advised to check with their respective schools for further updates. The complete list of affected schools is available on the Ministry of Education website.
