Kuala Lumpur: The Education Ministry has issued show-cause letters to five teachers who went up the stage at opposition talks to criticise the Government, said its Minister Datuk Seri Mahdzir Khalid Monday."We are in a democratic country. We have no problem with anyone wanting to support who.

But the problem is they are civil servants who went up the stage of the opposition and criticised the government," he said.

He was speaking at a press conference after launching the 'Use of 100 Per Cent Recycled Paper' campaign at a hotel, here, Monday.

"When it gets to that stage, what I meant is that it is better that they resign from being teachers," he said.

Mahdzir was referring to his statement made at a press conference yesterday after a dialogue session with teachers at Taman Tamadun Islam, Kuala Terengganu.

Among others, he said, teachers who were active in promoting the opposition and criticising the Government were advised to resign from the service.
