Education Minister Datuk Dr Mohd Radzi Md Jidin has reiterated that smartphones will continue to be banned in schools so as to curb gaming and digital devices addictions among students. This is despite the prevalence of these devices in primary and secondary students’ lives due to the Covid-19 necessitating online learning.

In fact, Radzi said that such a ban is actually more important now to ensure that students won’t use these devices for too long of a period, which will allegedly cause addiction. Speaking in Parliament, the Education Minister said that the ban of digital devices such as smartphones in schools among students have been enforced by his ministry since 2009.
