TWO Tamil schools in Hulu Selangor have not had their headmasters replaced for some time, Malaysia Nanban reported. SJK(T) Ladang Kalumpang's headmistress retired and was sent off with a small celebration in March.

Meanwhile, SJK(T) Ladang Kerling's headmaster was transferred three weeks ago but the position still remains empty. Both schools' assistant headmasters were left in charge but they are not authorised to make any decisions and have to rely on the district education office. > Twenty-two trained Carnatic students gathered for a record setting seven-hour concert on the steps of the Batu Caves Temple, Malaysia Nanban reported.
