When the mathematical education of millions of students in developing countries, who don’t have access to a computer or the internet, were hard hit by the lockdowns, which forced the authorities to postpone the national exams to 2021—a painful reality that exposes the wide inequality gap between the haves and the have-nots.

The recent spike in infected cases, which places Malaysia among the top five nations in South East Asia with the worse infection and death rates, is bad news for the moderate-Muslim country in containing the Covid-🇲🇾 crisis.
