1. we are talking about a pre-u programme here, so basically, anybody who wants to can have a go....the size of the student body is not an issue, and does not reflect the quality of the establishment.....

2. you pay for parking, anywhere in the klang valley....and surely one cannot judge an establishment based on the cafeteria?....

3. staff turnover is high, that is true and that impacts on teaching....but it's the same in any education establishment in an environment of tight qualified/trained teachers....

so how does all this tantamount to 'cheating'?.....

it's not being 'private' that is the problem....but whether it's purpose is for education, or for profit....

note that a lot of the best universities of the world are private, including harvard, caltec, etc....

it is important to differentiate non-profit ( ie not expecting to make a profit) and not-for-profit (expecting to make a profit, which is reinvested into the establishment).....the american private unis are education centered not-for-profit organisations, ....

the majority of ipts in msia are for profit....some are even listed on the stock exchange.....
