Despite Penang not being under any official heat alert, continuous monitoring is in place, with the department maintaining close communication with the Malaysian Meteorological Department for the latest updates.

Mohamad Dziauddin also highlighted that JPN is addressing school infrastructure, specifically fans, windows, and ventilation systems, to ensure a conducive learning environment.
