The sudden decision to suspend the funding of PTPTN loans to students at Universiti Selangor (Unisel) is a "BETRAYAL" to the Malay community since the majority of the students studying there are poor Malays who will require financial assistance to continue with their studies.
PTPTN funds are NOT UMNO/BN funds but are TAXPAYERS FUNDS. UMNO/BN federal government are mere administrators authorised to use the allocated funds to fund deserving and qualified students who require these needed funds to pursue their tertiary education.
This step to SUSPEND funding on POLITICAL WILL will cause UMNO/BN votes in the forthcoming 13th General Elections since the voters will deem that they had 'abuse' their powers and had shown 'betrayal' to the majority community, i.e. Malays from been unable to further their children's studies which will provide their children with a brighter future.
UMNO/BN's haste decision shows that UMNO is so desperate of losing control of the federal government. UMNO/BN need to CHANGE if they hope to get re-elected and rule Putrajaya.
Now, even the Malays will vote against UMNO/BN candidates at the coming polls.
To give confidence to Unisel students, the Pakatan Rakyat government had taken immediate steps to continue to fund these students, by securing financing by depositing the assets.
Free tertiary education which have been voiced by the Pakatan Rakyat may turn into reality while making UMNO/BN who are claimed to be uncaring, corrupt and incapable a reality too.
