Non Malays should not be afraid of not getting university education.
During a recent public dialogue, a Chinese student asked PM Anwar why she was not selected to entry any public university when her STPM result was much better than many Malay students. PM said that if he practiced meritocracy strictly, many Malay students would not have university education. As a result, PAS will use this fact to destroy our Unity Government which is in a very delicate position. PM Anwar cannot practice meritocracy strictly in student selection to public universities.
I would like to take this opportunity to offer a more detailed explanation.
The Unity Government is in a very delicate position. Anwar’s unity government is supported by Pakatan Harapan's 82 MPs, followed by Barisan Nasional’s 30, Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) 6, GPS’ 23, Warisan’s three, two independent MPs, and one respectively from Parti KDM, Muda and PBM.
PM Anwar must be afraid that some of the MPs might leave the Unity Government to join Perikatan National.
Winners in the 6 state elections on 12 Aug 2023
The Election Commission has released the official results for all 245 state seats contested in the six state elections today.
Perikatan Nasional remains in power in Kedah, Kelantan and Terengganu while Pakatan Harapan and Barisan Nasional will form the state governments in Penang, Selangor, and Negeri Sembilan.
Currently Dr Mahathir is ganging up with Hadi Awang of PAS to promote race and religion to gain political power.
In any case, non-Malays should not be afraid of not getting entry to universities because there are 20 public universities and 50 private universities in Malaysia.
Moreover, there are 34 private university colleges and 10 foreign university branch campuses too.
Those students who could not gain entry to public universities can easily enter private universities or university colleges.
For example, the tuition fee for a 3 years degree course in UTAR is about RM 36,000 and the Government offers PTPTN loan of about RM 36,000 to any university student irrespective of race and religion.
PTPTN loans charge a 1% flat interest rate per year. After graduation, graduates have 20 years to pay back the loan.
Many graduates cannot find employment.
According to the Graduates Statistics 2020 published by the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), there were 5.36 million graduates in 2020, an increase of 4.4 percent from 2019 (5.13 million). 202,400 of them, or 4.4 percent, were unemployed, which is an increase from 165,200 (3.9 percent) in 2019.
Nevertheless, many recent graduates are still struggling to find full-time employment.

its call short termism.
a proper way to access is what are your options?
take Malaysia for instance. Malaysia has very low starting pay for fresh graduates but huge shortage for good staff, good professionals with experience.
its probably common throughout the world. its part and parcel of capitalism where they bully and exploit where they can bully and exploit.

a fresh graduate in America gets about USD 30,000 pa.............USD 30,000 may sound like a lot until u consider their cost of living.

It's reported that almost half of China graduates will never going to find while collar job suited to their qualification!
Most of the courses offered by our public universities are dated and chances of getting employed is low! Even worse, our graduates from public universities have very little command of English as most of them were taught in bahasa!
English is important as most of trades and industry use English as medium of communication!
So tell me, how can civil engineer graduate from UM able to adapt to current working environment when he or she can't even understand simply terms in english! So yeah, the curse of graduates produced by our public universities!
My son got offered by UM to do civil engineering! Instead he opted to do civil engineering in Singapore! Well, that was a great decision as he immediately got employed in Singapore after finishing up his degree!
My advise, better do specialised skilled courses which highly needed by industries! There's unlimited opportunities for ship engineers! My son's friend had traveled the world many times over due to his job specializing in ship engine maintenance! The world will forever need highly skilled workers with high pay and vast opportunity to travel the world if that's you goal!
Forget about those corporate world thingy! Climbing those corporate ladder full of politics and toxic relations! And you waste years studies those white collar degree only to be dissapointed to know the harsh reality of such career!

Answer : Half of US graduates end up unable to pay for their study loan! This education trap seems repeated over and over again all over the world! China is the latest one!

As for Grandpa Koon headline, yeah, public univeersities seems to be malay universties! So what!
Here's a figure you need to digest! 70% that sat for SPM failed in latest result! And those who manage to get a place in public universities, 70% are malay ladies! Malay guys seems not interested to pursue degree courses! You can check with public universties if you don't believe me!
For for years now, public universities have been producing vast number of educated malay ladies! And many end up unemployed!
Those piece of paper is only good with the economy is thriving! But if the economy is dying like in China, it's really worthless!
2023-08-28 20:27
the malay girls go to universities to become teachers and the malay guys to take up civil service jobs. and that is that.

fresh graduate in China got far more career options in China compared to Malaysia..............teachers is a very respected job in China, join the PLA also very respected and can get u a wife. , join the CCP and become a civil servant, even a graduate police man is not too bad in China. Besides lots of options..............malaysian graduates rather limited options.

Chinese are not angmoh.............Chinese don't try to grab every thing"
======================
First statement is absolute truth. Even if you stand head over tail, cannot be angmoh leh.
The second statement is absolute bullshit! The most kiasu greedy swines are the Chinese.
2023-08-29 15:37
AngMoh use gunboat diplomacy to grab whole nations… e.g. India, China, Brazil, Argentina, … British is the greediest of all. See British colonisation history.

In Ww2… Japanese also followed British to grab China, Korea, the whole South East Asia. Japanese not greedy ker?

Chinese must learn to live peacefully with the majority if the Chinese still want to live peacefully.
minority still want to eat people castle meh?
2023-08-29 23:13
it will be very unusual for the minority to want eat the castle of the majority. U got the guns or not?

unless malaysia is no longer a democracy, the minority people better learn to live with the majority.

You know or not. In democracy, the people who breed faster can get to decide. It’s a number game in democracy.

QQQ, Ytl, IOI, PBB, Genting, etc must make sure they marry more than 4 for each sibling and have more than 10 children.
In a democracy, the size of a population determines whether you will be in power or not. Breed more than Tun M lah. Taukeh money so plenty but children only 2, how to get power in democracy???
2023-08-30 07:02
QQQ, do you understand the number game in a democracy?
Don’t be like Israe … very small population compared with Millions of Arat people. Israe each day feels threatened by Arat. Israe so rich but doesn’t want to breed more… creating security problems for Israe lah
2023-08-30 07:07
QQQ chinse needs to breed more… and faster. The rich Chinse must marry more than five, for they can afford to raise more than 10 children.

All of them and their spoilt children are actively fooling and seeding their sp*rm around, but their partners either on contraception or got damaged/blocked reproductive tubes because of STD

Even their wives can give them lots of children.
When STDs are left untreated, infections can develop that cause infertility by moving up the reproductive system and spreading to the woman's uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes causing damage, scarring or inflammation.
2023-08-30 08:29
Children nowadays have STDs, that’s why can’t get offsprings. Poor grandparents waiting for grandchildren…
2023-08-30 08:45
It’s a number game in democracy. Paying top taxes for what? All the taukeh taxes going to fund STR (Sumbangan Tunai Rahmah) Anwar for B40 … like me. Haha

QQQ, Paying top taxes for what? All the taukeh taxes going to fund STR .
B40 getting happier for getting government goodies. Life is not so bad for B40… indirectly B40 breeding more.
When B40 population getting bigger and bigger… Ultimately Gov STR can not be reduced or eliminated.
Future government has a big STR problem. How??? Bossku started this handout game. Now STR can’t be stopped

PerMAiDANI gomen has failed to learn from Jack Ma. Listen to what he says:
Don't go after the M48 middle class - millionaires or not, they deserve the life that they have rightfully earned.
It's the Top 2% billionaires who have sinfully sapu the public $$$$$$ supposedly meant for the B50
And these 2% hold 98% of the poor's money.
Solution is simple. No brainer really

Wow. That’s a wonderful idea and solutions. Jokowi went hunting all political kucing kurap and now Indon is much better than Msia.

They are intelligent, but their brains are infested by ideological viruses and mental parasites that restrict their cognitive flexibility.
While biological viruses are infectious agents that self-replicate inside living cells, ideology viruses are destructive pieces of mentality code that insert themselves into the mind and change the actions of a person. Fundamentalism feeds off it and changes its behavior in ways that benefit its own existence, reducing one’s ability to think critically or independently.
Although in moderation, religion can be great for a person’s life and mental well-being, the belief in the absolute authority of a religious text or leaders—is never good for any child because this kind of fundamentalism hijacks the immature brain and discourages any logical reasoning or scientific evidence that challenges its scripture, making it inherently maladaptive.

Nowadays lots of people have degrees… So paper chases for a high paying job is not a guaranteed like in British colonial era. In Usa, even the janitor has an academic degree from University. Nowadays a degree certificate is very common thing.
