    "content": "family separations, there have been the issues of incurred cost because of commuting. Teachers live far apart, and some of them have to operate between their homes and schools. For instance, a teacher has to leave home for school on Monday morning, and come back maybe on Friday evening. That is an extra cost. There has also been an exposure to accidents because of frequent commuting. I really sympathise with communities, especially in ASALs because of the shortage of teachers. However, by and large, even as we support the Motion with an amendment, we know very well that this issue had been passed to the TSC before. During Ms Amina’s tenure as the CS for Education, we tried to have an amendment on the recruitment of teachers in ASALs. We suggested to have some flexibility in terms of recruiting teachers based on their mean grade, within some ASALs where they have had challenges when it comes to teachers. By and large, we would like to ensure that we keep teachers within their home areas so that we can improve on the quality of education. Thank you."
