Dr M: Matriculation was ‘back door’ for Malays, now others want in too

PUTRAJAYA, May 6 — The matriculation programme was intended to help low-performing Malays enter local public universities, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad admitted today.

However, he added that clamour over the “back door” method to increase university intake is growing even among Malaysians of other ethnicities after the government decided to open it.

"We decided to have matriculation classes because we find Malays do not take higher school certificate and cannot enter university. So we provided a back door for them. It was entirely meant as back door for the Malays,” said Dr Mahathir, who served as education minister in the 1970s.

The prime minister said there was no issue previously of the lack of places in the programme for non-Malays, but has been played up by certain quarters following the expansion announced by Education Minister Maszlee Malik last month.

“It is simply because they don’t do much better that we had to create matriculation for the Malays,” he said, in reply to complaints that some non-Malay students are not getting matriculation spots despite performing better in studies.

“So now we’ve agreed to also give to non-Malays. The idea of increasing Malay students in universities by matriculation is nullified because the Chinese and Indians also go by back door, and they’re not satisfied.”

U see, from what she said, she still didn't get what is the concept behind it.


Ans:You are absolutely right, you cannot have 5 Malay ,5 Chinese, 5 Indian to team up together for a scientific research if either of them is not intelligent enough ! It is a wastage of limited funding available !

Other races pay more for everything, but get much less for everything. 3q is being paid by them, thinking that v can b easily fooled around again after decades of inequalities. Malaysia is the only country in the world that give privileges to majority race.

but don't u think to be giving is better than to be receiving?

ya, continue to live in imaginary land created by umno. go out to the streets and u can see poverty affects everyone, every race. there are many chinese and indians who are from poor families. there are also many malays who are rich.

the fake reality that all malays are poor and all chinese are rich is just a trick by umno to justify their racist agenda that benefits their own cronies. look around u, is it all malay poor? is it all chinese/indian rich?
the answer is no. this is just a fake reality.

i known a malay kid who live in 3 stories high house with audi and bmw cars. the highest score that he got in SPM is B, not a single A. but he can go to matrix. myself who got 4 A's and the rest is B cannot join matrix. i came from poor family, yet i unable to get into matrix although my grades are better just because i'm not a malay. a second class citizen in a country called malaysia.

62 Tahun selepas Merdeka, kerajaan masih dengan permikiran sempit membuat pengagihan berdasarkan kaum tanpa menyedari kek tesebut semakin mengecil. Persaingan luar terlalu sengit takkala kerajaan masih dalam dunia khayalan. Kerajaan sepatutnya fikir amacam kembangkan kek tersebut, bukan bunuh sesama rakyat. Bangau.

Dear all,
Luckily today there are many private universities/UTAR/ PTPTN loan/corporate & private scholarships and Chinese parents ready to sacrifice everything and seeing to it that their children get the best quality education they can afford.

Thank you

Dear all,
Those using backdoor to enter local university will need another back door (special tutorial) to graduate or drop out from the demanding courses (Engineering and Medicine) because they were not qualified to study such a demanding course in the first place. What a waste of limited resource.

2019-05-06 18:13

Who to blame now if other also demand a back door to enter university, back door to graduate from the demanding course, back door to enter job market, back door to climb the corporate ladder and backdoor to rich (power and corruption)?

Thank you

I think being satisfied makes u happier and the country more prosperous.

If u look at the educational landscape in Malaysia today, public universities are the last choice of the Chinese youth anyway.......with so many options, why even look at public universities and STPM?

Bumiputra rights and privileges should be retained for the bumiputra, but education must never be separated based on skin colour. This is the reason why Malaysia cannot progress further because we have many hidden and potential talents that does not get realized

Because of these 'back doors' our universities can only produce low quality graduates. The whole country is put in danger when these so-called 'graduates' become doctors, engineers etc. Race-based, instead of merit-based entry into universities is a sure formula for disaster.

The only solution is to have 2 different categories of public universities.
(1) Existing public universities (maintain the quota)
(2) Setup new public universities (MUST be metrocracy basis)

Government will review their performance and ranking every year

2019-05-08 12:29

qqq3

but there are already two categories....public u that Malays go to and private u that Chinese go to.

2019-05-08 12:31

in 10 years time...even primary and secondary schools also same like universities....

Chinese go to the private ones, Malays go to government ones.
