Chung is disappointed that despite the resources her group has pumped into keeping special needs schools functional over the years, two have been closed down while at least one more is on the brink of closure.
“When these close and there is a dearth already, what do we do then? she asked, while pointing to a lack of viable solutions and intervention from the Government.
