I really wonder how long the government plans to keep educational institutions on lockdown.
Instead of putting facilitates in place to ensure the safety of for staff and students upon resumption, they are busy postponing resumption and hoping for the white man to come up with a vaccine.
If you go round schools, you'll find that most are not doing anything to show preparedness for resumption.

This clearly shows we don't have passion for education.
