someone in a ruling political party who is in charge of higher education has already said that no non-malay will be allowed into uitm, over his dead body........so what do you think?

it's funny bcoz since its inception in the late 70s, UiTM (or ITM as it was known then) was specifically catered for bumiputera only. the reason was the government wanted to open more and more places in other universities to non-bumi, which we now have about 50-50. i believe this number will eventually be open without any quotas whatsoever, and UiTM is the fall back for the bumiputeras incase the non-bumis dominate all universities.

so what's the fuss all about?

and the 100% bumiputera quota is for undergraduate only. they have a number of non-bumi post graduate students, as well as teaching staffs.

and you don't think there is anything wrong with this?

tells a lot.......

no. what i mean is, why the fuss now?

bcoz somebody just knew about it? where have u been the past 30 years?

do know that i'm not too fond of this sort of universities. even UIAM has no requirements over race, language or religion, and it still gets by. UiTM have only recently opened up their courses for external examination. can u imagine a university that had almost no external examination in their courses for 20++ years?
*
not fuzz now, just happens someone made a direct inquiry.....and as demonstrated by the responses, MANY people did not know about the racist policy, although i have made reference to uitm's monoethnic nature many times in the past....

a question like this would have raised the irk of certain people in the past......only lately has the political climate changed, and things like this openly discussed without one being accused of being a something chauvinist......

and it is an open secret where the majority of the 80k unemployed graduates came from....

were u born yesterday? EVERYBODY knows UiTM is bumiputera only university since its inception in the late 70s. are u not aware what MARA is for exactly? u should read more. biggrin.gif

this is the same like a smoker suddenly realizing at the end of his life his lung cancer was caused by his excessive smoking, and now furious about it. go figure.

lots of people do NOT realise the extend of racial discrimination in msian education.....

and that is an unfair and inaccurate analogy.......smokers are doing a conscious and active act, and hence rightly stated should not be angry when they get lung cancer......the only 'mistake' people like tinsze has, is they were born to the 'wrong' parents......i think she has EVERY right as a citizen and tax payer to be indignant and upset about the blatant institutionalised racial discrimination going on here......

Y always wan to opt for local university which is not as good as foreign university and only accept bumiputera?

1. many people cannot afford private or overseas education...ipta is their only choice....

2. it is EVERY citizen's right, as taxpayers, to have EQUAL access to public funded education....

the reason why i used that analogy bcoz she actually applied for it.

i know u're aware that i'm all for equal education. but when someone applies for a course, it would help doing a little research about where he or she is applying.
*
she obviously was NOT aware......i don't know how the application forms are like nowadays, but i would bet it is NOT stated in the forms that certain unis are only for bumis......in fact, i believe application to uitm was NOT through upu in the past, and statistics about enrollments in ipta's did NOT take into account those going into uitm.......all part of covering up the discriminatory practices...

yes i am aware of your stand, and i salute you for that........

some posts have been deleted, pertaining to the defence of the uitm policy......and my reply......

if anyone wants to see it, pm me....

i can't repost it obviously, as the admin has deemed it censurable......although the arguments and facts are all pretty much in the public domain........
