KUALA LUMPUR: The Education Ministry must gather data on"period poverty" affecting the attendance of female students if help is to be given to them, says Deputy Women, Family and Community Minister Hannah Yeoh."No girl should stop school because of period poverty," she told reporters at a press conference in Parliament on Thursday .
With the proper data, Yeoh said that her ministry would be able to better provide help to the affected students. The issue was highlighted by Kelantanese businesswoman Zuraidah Daut, 44, who set up"Projek Oh Bulan!" earlier this year to help the affected students after learning of their plight.

Hmmm. No girl gak la. Kesian member laki aku dulu terpaksa berhenti sekolah jadi mekanik motor nak sara keluarga. Hannah Yeoh ni menteri bodoh.
