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.
2014-02-27 22:27
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?
2014-02-27 22:37
Im not Chinese. But I not agree with him. May be he is Western influenced person.
2014-02-27 22:38
Only Idiot can not see why Mr koon's sholarship recipant is mainly non-malay ?
2014-02-27 22:40
If you look through vacancies, younwill find 8 out of 10 asking for chineses speaking preferred. Dont you realise this is similar to racism?
2014-02-27 22:40
Aiyo...u don't even want to answer, then why should we have this in the official application forms of all kind???
2014-02-27 22:47
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.

Singapore based its education system using English Pilindo. Saturn, you blaming party or if you see me you see indian or malaysian? I woke up long time ago.
2014-02-27 22:53
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?????
2014-02-27 22:55
Well some like Khalid woke up and realise he can't fight the forces to be and just change side........r u it as welll?
2014-02-27 22:57
Have you meet very pure Chinese from China Darren? Most of them study in Australia dont understand what their lecturer talking about. they only understand in reading.
2014-02-27 23:00
Saturn, words alone are useless. I seen how i was turn down for jobs for chinese speaking preferred. Its all the skin colour or what benefits, if i am some datuk son and or so happen i am much use, immediately i can start work and all sudden become close.
2014-02-27 23:00
Darren I am sorry to say u must be the weak one......why? .....look at the world corporate leaders today in MNCs and Global companies .....made up majority Indians..... Top 2 riches in Malaysia are a Chinese and a Indian......top 2 sportsman is a Chinese ( badminton) and a Chindean ( squash)......do you really think that they were given chances or they just didn't give a damn what ppl think of them??

nice to know there are people whom are able to help those whom are / being rejected by its own land, there is hope.
God bless.

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.

Dear Mr. Koon Yew Yin, we are proud of your noble work. God Blessed you and family for your contributions to the needy.
2014-02-28 07:03
Thank you for your generosity and continuous help to these students. I can only hope that one day our system will judge based on merits instead of skin colour.
2014-02-28 09:47
Dear Mr.Koon, you are the hope for the needy. Education is the key for our future generation. Thanks.
2014-02-28 11:39
Dear Mr Koon,
May your generosity motivate us,Malaysian to lend a helping hands to those needy students too. God bless you and keep you & your family in good health.

The gentleman has proven tat he is a noble man. Unless we have something to prove, we should stop posting negative statements. Optimus! Lets find another playground. I'll join u!

Mr Koon, enriching people's life with knowledge, compasion and kindness...all of us hope that we can give back to society in the future similar to what are currently doing...
2014-02-28 12:48
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.

MrKoon, will you consider setting up some venture capital fund in Malaysia or Singapore? I think Malaysia really lack of this kind of funding companies.
