Schools across Johor will resume operations on Monday following approval from the state's Sultan, Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim, state executive councillor Dr Naqib Ghazali announced. The reopening comes as air quality readings in the state show signs of improvement. The temporary school closure had been implemented as a precautionary measure when air pollutant index levels reached levels of concern. Johor, like other parts of Malaysia, has faced recurring air quality challenges, particularly during haze seasons. The state government has been monitoring atmospheric conditions closely to determine when it is safe for students and staff to return to educational institutions. Parents and school administrators are advised to check official channels for any further updates regarding the resumption of classes and adherence to health protocols.
