This week, Malaysians were in deep shock over claims saying that the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) 2020 exam questions for History Paper 2 had been leaked.
According to The Star, a text message with a list of topics in the structured and essay portions of the paper were circulated on WhatsApp, just moments before the paper began at 10am yesterday (Wednesday, 24th February).
The local publication further revealed that among the topics that were leaked include “Resistance in Perak (Penentangan di Perak)”, “Maritime”, and “Vision 2020 (Wawasan 2020)”. So far, the Ministry of Education has yet to release any statement to address the matter.
Following the shocking discovery, netizens – especially SPM 2020 examinees – were not having it at all. Scrolling through Twitter, many vented out their anger over the recent issue. In this case, most students argued that if the leak turns out to be true, all of the candidates would have to retake the exam.
As a result, the hashtag #SPM2020 has become a trending topic on social media. Check out some of their reactions below:

In speaking to NST, Parent Action Group for Education (PAGE) president Datin Noor Azimah Abdul Rahim said the candidates must be “spared from retaking the paper“.
However, she stressed that a full investigation should be conducted to eradicate dishonest individuals who fail to uphold the integrity of the teaching profession.
