Government Considers Bringing Back Online Classes to Save Fuel

The government is exploring the possibility of bringing back partial online classes as part of wider energy-saving initiatives to ease pressure on the fuel and power sector amid global uncertainties. Proposed measures under review include extending weekly holidays, offering work-from-home options for government staff, and changing office hours to lower electricity use. Schools and universities could adopt a hybrid model, holding some classes online to save energy. These plans, prepared by multiple ministries, are expected to be discussed at an upcoming cabinet meeting, though no final decision has been made yet.
