Yes , finally what others has failed to do. UMNO that has been in power for more than 50 years , this was one of the saddest failure that has plagued our talents Good and straight A students not getting what they deserved , they had to resort to sth less and aiming for less. I had seen it happen , so much potential wasted. Despite all the controversies, PH has managed to set things right once again. They have set many things right , not PN who were busy siphoning and being corrupt in order to keep up with sheraton move. Meritocracy is the way forward ! those that deserve the merits they earn ! Give them the chance and let them show us the future !
What meritocracy when matriculation programme was meant to be a backdoor to enter local university?
THE matriculation programme was meant to be a backdoor to help more Malay students get into university, said Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
“We decided to have matriculation because we found that Malays do not have a higher certificate and they could enter universities. So, we provided a backdoor for that.
“It was entirely meant to be a backdoor (entry) for Malays but now other people do much better but they cannot get into matriculation.
“It is simply because they did not do much better that we had to create matriculation for the Malays
Zaid Ibrahim @zaidibrahim Anwar, stop being generous, just be fair
The announcement from PMX guarantees that non-bumiputras will have a place in matriculation courses if they have 10 As. How many non-bumi have 10 As? What about 9/ 8As or 7 As
I feel sorry, especially for the poorer Indians and Chinese families. Ninety per cent of the places in Matriculation are already reserved for Bumis. Their children have to get 10As to qualify. Why can't this government be more sensible and fair to non-Malays? Could you not give them more places?
Is Anwar serious in talking about and understand the meaning of balancing meritocracy with the principle of justice as fairness?
No one will object if you give an everage students from ill equip and poor rural school into a well equip with best teacher and prepared them to take a unify univetsity entry exam (STPM or A level). But to give a 90% quoto with a lower university enter exam and then proudly announce to the whole world we already abolish quoto sysyem with meritrocracy system for university intake is institutionalisation of cheating.
Anwar, in a Facebook post today, said in a country which implements a system based on meritocracy, the government emphasised the importance of balancing meritocracy with the principle of justice as fairness, as expressed by Harvard scholar, John Rawls.
“This matter needs to be understood by some elite groups in the city, who talk loudly about meritocracy, but do not think whether it is fair to let students in Manik Urai or Kapit compete with students in Malay College Kuala Kangsar (MCKK) or Sekolah Menengah Jenis Kebangsaan Chung Ling, which are equipped with the best infrastructure.
He cautioned against implementing meritocracy without consideration for fairness, as the poor and marginalised will remain in such a state.
“This is ‘The Tyranny of Merit’ as argued by the American scholar, Michael Sandel,” he said.
I heard UKM still having matriculation for Bumi only, not open at all...so they need some where to masuk Uni, get certificate, get into govt service, talking/signing position, easy money. Everybody want this path. This is the high potential of Msia. :D
THATS what PN want... however , gov today is of multicultural... and anwar already confirm that , this is big difference 1. Percentage of Non -bumi with straight A > bumi 2. those straight As now get to go on to higher levels , without having to fight for spots like before 3. they will have bigger and variety of unis / scholarships to get into , in/out country under gov scholarships Funny , still so race centric instead of merits . what era are u guys from? still wan that for malaysia. Why is malaysia so backwards i wonder. Sometimes, these ppl ask themself that question What a world we live in , where are u tobby
dulu masa lain , dulu masa abang susah ... the mentality has to change. the same corrupted ways have to change . Malaysia is coming to a new age . Sabah sarawak getting their rights. It's just the right thing to do . Let's welcome good moves , forget the old ways and agenda , this is a good point for ALL , a future for all MALAYSIANs !

Subsidy can never be good. People need to learn there is No Such Thing as a Free Lunch
The first time you give somebody something for free you create appreciation. The second time you give the same person something for free you create anticipation. The third time- expectation. The fourth time- entitlement The fifth time- dependency. When you don't give it again , it can often lead to resentment that overnight grows into hatred. Be charitable but be wise.
most students take 9 subjects................to get 10A , Chinese students must score A1 in Chinese subject...................and this they can control and limit. useless piece of announcement by Anwar
misinformation 9 A + 1 subject can be account / bible / tamil / chinese / literature / ETC ETC CAnt trust Pmx but excited to choose most Corrupted backdoor GOV ... ini la Malaysia , wan to chase away all foreign companies so that bursa can go reverse all the way ... some peopel are afraid of growth , when u give them goods they reject ... Malaysia very weird , like to gostan and backwards HJAHAHA

Sixty-nine non-bumiputera students who scored 10As in SPM this year were among those who were denied entry into the matriculation programme before the government eased racial requirements. https://www.malaysiakini.com/news/710878 Ignoranants and arrogants. .. insensitive. no idea which is worser , 69 students each year would not be elligible ....... calcualte that by 40 years and maybe 100 years for the country if the policy nvr change. STEP UP , stop closing a blind eye like how u were taUGHT.
Now everyone want backdoor. Know what, if you creat a backdoor to University entry then you need another backdoor for them to graduate and then another backdoor for employment and then another backdoor for promotion and etc.

By the way I am not talking about those 10A holders but those that were not qualified to do certain toughest professional courses but get in through backdoor.

The day Malaysia will truly change is when it change its education. Let's do it step by step this is the hardest and also most crucial part. If they do it fair the minority will flock at the top. This is not something the mass want to see.
u like it or not our education is a political chess piece.

Be resourceful and you can easily find a scholarship or study loan to do the course you want.
My second son get into NUS after a private Taylor's preU study.
Not necessary! Professional certification is just a revenue source for the government. Singapore certifies even Janitors because it has no natural resources.
yes and matriculation is one of the main ways to get there... and 95% of these straight As student will become professionals in their field... now their spots are guaranteed instead of having to go through many obstacles which can lead them nowhere

Citizens and residents of Malaysia, we must support them, but we also accept meritocracy. Regardless of race or region, we can guarantee a place in matriculation for them. Anwar said that although the decision recognises excellence regardless of race and background https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2024/07/01/meritocracy-in-matriculation-student-intake-says-anwar
