Kids nowadays are becoming more and more brazen. All the effort, time and money spent by their parents to give them the best possible life and to prepare the best possible future goes to waste with every day they skip school.
Fortunately, they can still be caught and held to account for their actions. According to Pendidik on Twitter, students who are found lepak-ing with their uniforms on at the mall or a city area will be apprehended by the police. They will board a lorry or a bus to be sent to the police station, only to be released upon the arrival of their parents or guardians. Ha, padan muka!

Jokes aside, we hope that these kids that were playing truant have learnt their lesson and will now take their education seriously. This course of action is a really great effort to curb cases such as these from growing at an alarming rate.
