First Form Six College in Machang to open in 2026
Fadhlina, who visited the construction site during her three-day working trip to Kelantan, said the project is progressing as scheduled and is on track for completion by 2026.
'God willing, the college will be ready next year, allowing students to study in a more comfortable and focused setting,' she told reporters after presenting Early Schooling Aid (BAP) to Semester 1 Form Six students for the 2025 academic session today.
Fadhlina noted that Kelantan's Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia (STPM) results have remained excellent and consistent, underscoring the need for continued support for both infrastructure and academic quality.
'Infrastructure alone isn't enough. The quality of teachers and students must also remain a key focus,' she added.

Search for missing Turkiye national continues off Pulau Yu
KUALA TERENGGANU: The search and rescue operation for Eser Demirkol, a Turkiye national missing since the yacht 'Daisy' capsized off Pulau Yu, continues for the fifth day. Terengganu Maritime director Captain Maritin Hamiludin Che Awang confirmed the operation resumed at 9 am today with support from the Malaysian Maritime Diving Squadron. Favorable weather and calm seas enabled divers to widen the search zone. 'Yesterday, the team used a Remote Operated Vehicle (ROV) to survey the yacht's location but found no leads,' said Captain Maritin. The search covered 500 square meters, approximately 5.12 nautical miles from Pulau Yu. Three Turkiye nationals—captain Ahmet Volkan Ata (52), Ates Demiroren (42), and Demirkol (52)—had departed on July 28 for a sailing expedition to their home country. Their yacht reportedly encountered a storm and capsized on July 29. Demiroren was rescued by local fishermen on August 1, while Volkan Ata was found safe later that night after swimming for over 40 hours. - Bernama

Strong social and cultural values of Orang Asli community
GUA MUSANG: Eighty per cent of the Orang Asli community in Kelantan continue to hold firmly to their traditional customs and beliefs, despite rapid modernisation and technological advancement, says Kelantan National Department of Culture and Arts director Rohaniza Abdullah. She said a study conducted by the department found that the community was proud of its cultural identity and had begun leveraging social media platforms to showcase its uniqueness to the outside world. Rohaniza said the community had continued to preserve their customs across generations up to the present day. 'The strength of the community lies in its ability to preserve its culture and identity in today's modern world. 'Interestingly, young Orang Asli have used social media as a platform to introduce their heritage. 'The research has opened the eyes of many to the strong social and cultural values still upheld by the Orang Asli community,' she said after the Penyemarakan Komuniti Budaya @ Komuniti Orang Asli programme at Pos Brooke, Lojing, here yesterday, Bernama reported. According to Rohaniza, there are still many unique aspects of the Orang Asli community that have yet to be explored or are not widely known.
