PETALING JAYA, Oct 16 — University of Malaya (UM) engineering graduate Wong Yan Ke, currently embroiled in controversy for protesting at his convocation ceremony against vice-chancellor Datuk Abdul Rahim Rashid, said he had done so as a last resort. The 23-year old alumni from Penang highlighted...

“We sent letters asking for meeting dates, as well as memorandums, to the vice-chancellor’s office. Despite numerous instances, they never responded to our demands,” he told reporters outside the Petaling police station, after providing a statement over the incident. “In part, why I protested was to democratise the campus. He has never been held accountable to either us or the academics, and is only a puppet of the politicians,” he said.

“In my view, I suspect that action is being taken against me as he is afraid others may follow my lead in protesting against him, as many already opposed his actions during the congress. He is trying to make sure dissenting voices against him are suppressed,” he said. Wong also dismissed allegations that he is a member of a political party or that he has received funding from any political organisation.

Wong also made fun of such allegations, stating that he has been photographed with various political figures before.

The much bigger crime here is having vernacular school which has proven to worsen malaysian unity, not bcoz VC attended an event to promote malay/muslim dignity & unity (it's part of our tenet to be united)

No one is above the law. The boy has violated the University Act 1971 and deserved proper punishment.

Ko joint sokong Dong Zhong ok. Yg lain joint kongres Melayu rasis. Vavi bercakap. Ni pun klu bangsa melayu 15% masih tolol sila meninggal

Ekonomi tak stabil, ringgit tak pulih, ancaman LTTE, pengangguran, manifesto yg nampak mcm dilupakan, tak nampak PH boleh tadbir negara. Isu budak tolol ni yg diketengahkan, disensasikan.

saifuddinabd The only country in the world where its majority succumbed to their minority need.

BiaDAP!!

Aku bukan rasis tapi bila aku tengok baju kor, aku terasa kor rasis.

yahudi kaifeng. tak sedar diri

Point is that maybe you just anti melayu je

Stop your DAP bullshite la 'raykat'. Go and do your protest at the congress organizer, if you are really against it. The VC is free to attend as much as you are free to protest him doing it. And the VC is free to report you, too. Stop it and call out your DAP sponsor.

Bottom line, VC is the coward, can't even defend his own statement against a single student.

From the top to the bottom, Malaysia has gone to the dogs of racism. And that idiot Mahathir chedetofficial is doing nothing to change the situation. It's now time for another revolution.

No explanation needed. U tarnished a solemn occassion. U r wrong. Fullstop.

Apsal tak bole join? Kau join kongsi samseng kau bole pulak? Sial punya pirate

Walawei...u got the dap channel use it la...why so stupid do it during convo.....belajar tinggi tapi masih bodo

A hero in the making. 环境造英雄

Wong is currently being investigated under Section 504 of the Penal Code for intentionally insulting or provoking...SIGH!! beruk2 kat kongres bukan wat provokasi ker? What a load of bullshi*!!

stupid

YOU COMPLAINT TOO MUCH You said you raise many issues. But have you ever thought, for ONCE, to enroll to private uni.? Why stay? Sometimes you have to accept things as they are.

Masing Masing komen tanpa baca artikel. Nah Dia dah cuba cara baik bertahun kot

Umbrella movement in Malaysia? Hope not

He successfully graduated from a faux activist into a full-pledge shenanigan. Bravo dap puppet! DAPvandal

but you are spoiling other students 'SPECIAL DAY' by standing there yelling like an ape, blocking other students who is receiving their scroll. Their parents are there trying to take pictures but you are blocking them. You are too clever but stupid

Is it wrong for the VC join Malay Congress

He didn’t join. He was one of the organizers of the congress. No?

Chinese also have their own congress. Why bother? Stupid activist

You should join NGO / politic after grad....but BERADAP please!

A last straw would be to quit UM altigether. Naa’ah this young rebel and a politician-wannabe enjoys the encouragement/support/close relationship from DAP. A backdoor channel to raise racist issues for DAP?

This type of student is the prove for our fail education. We just teach them to be smart but we never teach them manner. He interupt formal event and never learn from his mistake then try to put blame on other people. If he has so much to complaint why he enrol for UM.

Ko tetap biadap wahai pemuda DAP, dasar kurang ajar

Student, keep silly as dap

Vc nk join kongress mly itu hak dia. Sbb dia mly. Xkn nk join kongress cina, india.

U just a dap puppet la.

Org cina, org India dan Bangsa2 lain ada persatuan2 dan kadang2 berhimpun dlm satu gabungan meraikan bangsa tersebut bukannya kesalahan asalkan tidak melibatkan pengganas. Bila bangsa Melayu nak buat, salah Kenapa bodoh sgt? pakatanharapan_ PPBMofficial KEADILAN PartiAmanah

Cara dia mungkin tak sesuai, tapi mungkin dia dah ketandusan idea untuk mengetengahkan isu-isu yg dihadapi pelajar-pelajar UM.

Tak payah dok layan budak kurang ajar tu. Takkan budak biadap macam tu nak dijadikan idola.

Is it a crime?

Students laud UM grad's solo protest against racism | Malay MailKUALA LUMPUR, Oct 15 ― Universiti Malaya graduate Wong Yan Ke’s solo demonstration to demand the resignation of its vice-chancellor over the Malay Dignity Congress is commendable as a stand against racism, a student movement said today. The Coalition for Academic Freedom (GPA) thanked Wong for... Pelik student ni, kata sokong freedom of speech, dh tu biar la VC tu nk cakap ape pun. Knp nk condemn dia plak? Its two sided. Both sides ada hak utk freedom of speech, cannot be just for you. He was teaching us all that continuing producing 'yes sir' generation is not an option. The generation who only sit quietly, listen, nod their head, agree and follow blindly are dangerous. They breed like rabbits, they think like sheep but act like wolves Who is PMUM to get UM to retract the degree? They should instead demand the VC to retract his racist slur. He is not fit to lead an institution that calls for integrity and impartiality.
