“Following this, the Cabinet agreed to increase the ministry's matriculation programme student intake from 25,000 to 40,000,” Maszlee said in a statement. “Along with this, the Cabinet has also decided to retain the quota for 90 per cent Bumiputera and 10 per cent non-Bumiputera students, in line with the programme's original vision in encouraging more Bumiputera students to pursue sciences field,” Maszlee said.

NOT interested to know...so wtf is new Mr Minister!?!!!

Stupid minister. Please RESIGN

The adults are playing racist policy but the blame always put it on vernacular school children. Mega fuck to these politicians.

And this guy is in charge of education?

maszlee Quota should be for B40. Access to education must be for all

It's shameful for a country to heavily discriminate the minority races in education for more than 60 years and still going. With such policy the Minister can't stand tall when attending UNESCO conference.

Good decision by Dr Maszlee

Better to Remain Silent and Be Thought a Fool than to Speak and Remove All Doubt maszlee

I think we should appreciate the government to provide more opportunities for education. It starts with small steps.

The world is evolving everyday outside. You can choose to remain status quo. I'd rather choose to evolve and excel myself than to wait for goodies.

The rest are 'still' 2nd class citizen ...

Dear Dr Maszlee. Just stop your racist education policy. Not good for the country. Why not scrape STPM and every student do the Matriculation? So all is fair and good.

Proof how weak PKR & Bersatu Ministers are. We did not vote for a DAP-administration.
