Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Abdul Ghani Othman said the state government under his leadership for 18 years had also fulfilled the needs of the Indian community in various sectors, including education, social and religion.
"During my tenure, much has been done for Indian education. For example, four Tamil schools in Gelang Patah have been given new locations and allocation to build new buildings.
"One of the schools, Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Tamil Kangkar Pulai has emerged as the top school among the 10 top schools in the country governed by board of trustees," he told reporters after attending an excellence award presentation Indian Development Associations in Gelang Patah, at Dewan Raya MPJBT, Taman Universiti, here, Thursday night.
He added that the state government had also resolved and relocated many temples that were build along railway track.
Ghani said the temples were relocated to new sites after being given land.
"The state government has also assisted Indian non governmental organisations by contributing financial assistance for culture and welfare activities," he said.
