An official blog in i3investor to publish sharing by Mr. Koon Yew Yin.

All materials published here are prepared by Mr. Koon Yew Yin

All students, irrespective of race and religion who have secured a place to study for the foundation course in any of the public Universities in Malaysia, including UTAR, are eligible to apply for scholarships from Koon yew yin.

The scholarship provided will be sufficient to cover tuition fees and cost of living expenses for the one-year foundation course.

On successful completion of the foundation course, the students will be required to apply for the government PTPTN loan to complete the degree courses chosen by them.

Conditions:

1. Scholarships will only be given to needy students whose parents are earning less than RM3,000 per month. Applicants must have passed SPM with at least 5A.

2. Scholarship recipients after completion of their degree courses are not required to compensate in any way for the financial support received. The only condition is that they will have to promise to help other poor students when they themselves are financially secure and in a position to help the unfortunate and needy.

3. All applications should be sent to the address below with appropriate parents’ salary or pay vouchers or other evidence of income as well as offer letters from the universities. For students with parents engaged in self employment, a letter of reference from a school teacher or official on the financial status of the parents will be sufficient.

4. The selection criteria is based on applicant’s financial need and not on academic achievement.

Note:  I have given more than 250 scholarships to help poor students to complete their tertiary education. The attached photos taken during the recent Chinese New Year celebration, shows some of the graduates who benefitted from my scholarships.

This is how I want to spend my money effectively to create happiness. Just see how happy they all are. When they are happy, I am happy.

Remember, after you have made more money than you really require, you must not forget that you cannot take it away when you die. You must do charity and create happiness which is our ultimate aim in life.

Among these graduates, standing 3rd from the right is Wan Pui Yee with 9A1 and 2A2 in SPM and sitting 3rd from right is Andrew Tan with 10A1 in SPM. Both of them could not get scholarships from the Government. They would have gone to Singapore if I did not offer them my helping hand.  

If you know of poor students who need financial help, please tell them to apply.

How many with more than 5As and less than 8As cannot afford to go to U. Say one year there are 2,500 students. Times that by 40 years you have 100,000 very disappointed people.

Pilindo, have it ever occur to you that every year how many secondary students coming out with 5As and 8As? And again you quickly talking about chineses, i didnt. Have it ever occur to you non malays with similar great result are bypass too? And quickly you get angry and emotional. And Saturn asking race first, its it obvious?

This question you asked Koon.

Mr. Koon, from the photo all the graduates are chineses. How about other minority races in Malaysia like Indians, ibans, muruts etc. Do you help them too?

What for the question? He already mentioned all malayisan can apply.

You all have to accept China now are big power. We have to do bussiness with China. Even in Australia, in some orang putih business asking Chinese speaking person.

Saturn101

If we all understand English and we have a rule of law,.......then why can't we determine with ease whether it's extremism ok or not and if a statement is seditious or not?????

To be happy one should stay out of politic, love the country you are born in and accept the fact that things beyond our control remain beyond our control. And like Mr. Koon, we should look after the unfortunate others regardless of race and religion. I wont migrate to other countries no matter how good they say it is. I accept and proud of been malaysian. God bless to you Mr. Koon, please continue you good work, God is raceless and religionless as far as I know. As for current politician turmoil we experience, I wish we could be like before, somehow I miss the true spirit of multiracial. Thank you.

Do they have to pay u back later ? They probably shld so other students can pursue their studies in future
about the brain drain, we lost some of the brightest students , but to be fair SPM I think can't guarantee scholarship
As its too easy and not a sufficient test
A lot of the ppl who did well in spm , sometimes they don't do well in A levels or stpm
So those crying for scholarship just cause their spm is good shld also prove themselves by getting straight As in A level or stpm
I think nobody owe them a scholarship actually

There is a famous Chinese saying from the Three Kingdom Saga that went like this
" Even the most righteous General Kuan Ti has a formidable opponent in Chou Chou while Chou Chou known for all his cunningness has diehard supporters "
In short no matter what you do , there will be critics .Ignore them , they are too insignificant .Don't flag them , let others know what they write .The wise know the difference.
