Unlike other privately owned universities, UTAR caters for poor Malaysian families regardless of races with the lowest tuition fees. You can find a lot of Indian students study in UTAR, along side with Chinese students. For the rich, they can go overseas for tertiary education, or at least go to privately owned universities like University of Monash, Taylor University, Sunway University, University of Nottingham etc etc. These privately owned universities are profit oriented and charge much higher tuition fees way above the affordability of the poor.

Please bear in mind, most students in UTAR are from poor Chinese families, not able to gain entry to public university because their STPM results not good enough to earn them a place. Removing tax-exemption will force UTAR to raise tuition fees and likelihood depriving Chinese students from the poor families an opportunity to get out of poverty.

Please leave politics at home. Removing UTAR tax-exemption amounts to stab Chinese Community from the back. UTAR yearly allocation of rm 50 million a year already removed by LGE when he was a Finance Minister for less than 2 years. So much damage already done by a single person to 7 million Chinese, and there is no way to get it back. LGE will be remembered forever as a sinner.

Untruth and misinformation.

My nephew choose UTAR because he like the UTAR course/Actuarial science
offered to him. He is now working in UK as IT programmer.

Because of quality education offered by UTAR, UTAR is now univerisy of choice.

Correct. UTAR produces the best graduates because of it's strong integrity and principles . Others are paper mills, emptying country coffers (under higher education fund) and produce low-quality shameless lazy cheaters and phDs

For Anwar Ibrahim to effectively address and dismantle any deep state within the Malaysian government, he would need to pursue a comprehensive, multi-pronged approach to reform and institutional strengthening.

The deep state’s alleged role in siphoning billions or trillions of ringgit offshore has devastating effects on Malaysia’s economic well-being. It undermines trust in institutions, deprives the country of critical resources, and exacerbates inequality. While efforts to combat corruption and illicit financial flows have been made in recent years, addressing the entrenched networks of power within the deep state remains a formidable challenge. A combination of stronger enforcement, political reform, and international cooperation is essential to curtail these damaging practices and restore the economic prosperity of Malaysia.

The fixed nature of hudud punishments makes selective enforcement especially problematic, as the law is meant to apply equally to all.

No tax due unless UTAR has been profitable.
So according to the tax authorities, UTAR has been profitable. How are poor students going to be affected if UTAR has to pay tax on its operating surplus.
Before we go any further in this discussion, we should ask UTAR to publish its accounts.

Just a question what wrong UTAR is profitable and reinvest the profit into better facilities?

Did our public universities/Mara also collected fees from students but still need billion in government allocation (tax payers money) and yet produce graduates that can't find a gainful employment.

They deserve punishment for insulting mara indirectly - wih their integrity, capability, honesty and performance. How dare them!
