Bill: Educational Development Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: National Democratic Front [NDF]
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: February 4716
Description[?]:
| Making children sing the national anthem daily will make them nationalist and each countryman must have his/her national anthem by heart. Sexual education can cause the rise of will to do sex which is not a good sign. When the government funds school the government's money must not be wasted so only chartered non-profit should be funded with specific focus. Complete seperate curriculum is dangerous so partial exempt is fine. |
