Uncle Koon, reading your comment regarding the poor student who are pursuing medical study, I can't help but to say a few words.
From your comment, it means students who come from poor family have no chance to fulfill their dream to be a medical doctor. Or in other words, medical doctors are reserved for rich people.
Similarly poor students who have the desire to pursue quality education have no chance to go oversea to seek their dreams.
If the government of Malaysia has had this mentality, we may not see the rise of Malay professionals through the education policies implemented bu the government.
Perhaps you see in different way of how these students are facing the financial burden in pursuing their study. From their story about their family background you may see that their parents or siblings are capable to help to finance these students' study. But you may not know the actual hardship they, the students and their family, have to go through in managing their finance matters in order to see these students to have a peace of mind in pursing their dream of becoming somebody in their chosen field.

Posted by nklye > 2016-01-15 03:13 | Report Abuse

Uncle Koon,
Many of our quality students have the desire to seek quality education in order to enhance themselves in the field they see themselves have talent and to be good at. They dream to contribute with their talent once they have acquired the recognition through their study. They know
many of these quality and established education institutions are located in oversea. But their family financial situation kills their desire to fulfill their dream to be good at their chosen field. Thus many turned out to be mediocre in other fields which they have to take up in order to move on. We lost many of this talented people who if they were given the opportunity to seek their desire in a quality environment, they may have contributed greatly to the well being of our society.
Uncle Koon,
if really you want to help our young generation to be good at their chosen field, perhaps you may consider case by case of the students who come to seek your help for financial assistant to pursue their desire to study in a better environment. Perhaps you may relax a bit of your very tight condition of 'very poor family" in order to get your money.
A single earning parent with a few kids, earning a salary of RM10K does not mean he is rich and capable to provide good education for his talented children to pursue education in oversea, more so with restriction set by the our authority that limit their chance to advancement.
Look at the rise of Malay professionals, many whom have come back from oversea universities and are serving their family, society and country diligently, professionally thus their standing in society. If the government of Malaysia had not implemented education policies years back to help these Malay professionals, we won't see so many of them in our society.
Many of us wish to be rich like you, but by God's grace you are one of the chosen one. If I have been really rich like you, but alas I had missed my chance due to situation as I have mentioned above, I might have do likewise like you but I might not put up such a tight conditions as you are doing it. I would like to see our talented children be able to seek financial help to pursue their dreams to be really good in their chosen field.

Generally, if you cannot afford certain courses, like critical courses, then you should not apply for such courses unless in public universities which is within your means. Not many people can get full scholarships unless you are gomen sponsored.And if you are taking a loan from PTPTN, dont expect to take further loans to cover your entire course expenses. Its a wrong choice and will put you heavily in debt for quite a long time.

I was young before. Everybody is young before.
When young, people tend to be too fixated, not flexible enough.
Therefore it is the duty of the old and wise to guide and even be firm when necessary.

The rich can afford a lot of mistakes, the poor have no such luxury.

From the donors point of view, that is good perspective.
Equally important for Malaysia, for donors is to increase upwards mobility of the poor.
During Colonial times, we Chinese have much more opportunities for upwards mobility.

Jonathan Keung, well said. I was an Engineering student from a public uni. and after my internship, I decided not to pursue further a career in engineering due to the job nature. and yes, given a chance to unwind time, I would've taken up a degree in business studies, finance, etc. And I second KYY call that if you failed to be a doctor, lawyer, engineer, that doesn't deprive you from being rich and successful in the future. There are many opportunities and career paths out there in the working world which rewards street-smart and diligent individuals. So dear scholarship applicants, its not the end of the world if you cannot pursue Medicine

Mr.Koon..You can decide who u want to give the scholarship because that is your money but don't publish those emails to public forum like i3investor. I don't know what is your intention to publish here.I know some of them may not fulfill the application criterias but try to respect others.tq

I totally agree with King555.. you want to give scholarship.. student apply.. and yet.. u are laughing at their dreams? at their parents effort? You think you give scholarship and you can humiliate and mock people's ambitions/dreams and effort? Poor people can't dream big? So means poor people just have to stand where they are while only rich people can dream?Education is just their thought of upgrading their life and make their parents proud.. You shouldn't laugh at people's dream and humiate them.. You are rich now.. so accumulate good karma for yourself and family..

After reading all the comments raider would like to make the following conclusion;

1. if u want to pursue medical course, do it thru a local public university, if u r poor and short of say living expenses, then Mr koon can give the necessary help.
If u overpay a medical course and bcos u r not good enough to get into a local public university.
Then do not try to get an expensive medical scholarship from Mr koon. Mr Koon advise is that do not pursue an expensive foreign medical course u cannot afford and ask Mr koon to sponsor.
Mr Koon view, foreign medical course as expensive and not worthwhile loh.....!!
Raider is agreeable to Mr Koon this line of thinking, which is financial, rational and fundamental, just like investing in share loh...!!

It is good Mr Koon, be Forthright with the applicants to avoid giving them false hope & guide where can they pursue their ambition effectively loh....!!

Mr. Koon realizes how lucky he is to have what he has, he tries to help and reduce the social and economic gaps in the society. Charitable work not only makes a social change but is also a mental growth among people and lead to the road of improvement.

I would like to tell the Starfish Story by Loren Eiseley, one day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed a boy picking something up and gently throwing it into the ocean.

Approaching the boy, he asked, “What are you doing?”

The youth replied, “Throwing starfish back into the ocean. The sun is up and the tide is going out. If I don’t throw them back, they’ll die.”

“Son”, the man said, “don’t you realize there are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of starfish? You can’t possibly make a difference!”

The boy bent down, picked up another starfish, and tossed it back into the surf. Then, smiling at the man, he said, “I made a difference for that one.”

Mr. Koon chooses to throw his stars wisely and well, hopefully more will be blessed.

2.) Education and choice of courses is not for parents' proud.
3.) Chinese student like to please their parent with a doctor job.
4.) These might be the reasons why so many chinese student commit suicide nowadays.
5.) Good english is important to apply for scholarship.

I'm sure that Mr Kyy has no ill intention at all when he published some of the applicants'email. He is trying to let any future would be applicants to be more practical and realistic in doing things.Mr Kyy is an individual with a limited fund and he is using it for charities. He is not like the government which has unlimited funds from us the taxpayers to throw away even for the very undeserving students.What would your feeling be if a hungry man you gave some money to bought a pack of cigarette instead of food? Does that not defeat the purpose of your kindness? To those critics,what have you done to the betterment of the needy people? To Mr Kyy, i'll like to say'Thanks for your kindness'.

I agree with tbg933. By publishing the applications(name withheld, Mr. Koon is sending a message loud and clear to would be applicants that such applications will not be entertained and a waste of time. I am sure that some of these applicants are also sponsored but still greedy enough to get some extra monies. Our society has changed so much that for the sake of a few dollars, so many ministers are willing to sell their soul of their parents just to get the extra few dollars. Its not easy to find a good fella and KYY is one such guy. He has his weakness but his sacrifice and dare to make a difference is exemplary.
