UiTM slams MB’s proposal

SHAH ALAM: Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Vice-Chancellor Prof Datuk Seri Dr Ibrahim Abu Shah has hit out at Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim’s suggestion that the university open its doors to non-bumiputra students.
Prof Ibrahim said the call to have non-bumiputras allowed into the university was against the purpose of setting up the university.
“UiTM was set up to provide the bumiputras a chance to improve themselves by attaining tertiary education,” he told a press conference at the university here yesterday.
He was commenting on Khalid’s statement asking for UiTM to open 10% of its intake to the other races to raise the level of integration, competitiveness and the quality of graduates.
He said the power to decide on any changes to the intakes in UiTM was up to the government. Earlier about 5,000 UITM students held a peaceful demonstration in front of the state secretariat building where they also handed over a memorandum to a state government official objecting to the call by Khalid.
UiTM student body president Luqmannulhakim Mohamad Idris said the students wanted Khalid to retract the statement and apologise.
“We (the students) are very disturbed by the statement and we have planned our strategy on what to do if the Mentri Besar does not apologise and retract the statement,” he said.
Khalid, meanwhile said the proposal was done in the interests of both bumiputras and others.
Khalid said he was fully aware that he had no right to decide on the quota for non-Malays in UiTM."

I am an alumnae of UiTM, and this is totally rubbish and stupid. This just explains how racist and freakin retard the ‘Bumiputera’ students can be. For the first time, I am embarrass to be an alumnae of UiTM.

What is so ‘disturbed’ by having 10% non-Bumi students in UiTM? How to ‘improve’ if you don’t dare to compete? Please, change your mentality first before you want to improve yourself. I agreed with Dato Khalid positive intention; to raise the level of integration, competitiveness and the quality of graduates.

That student body president is just afraid of his own shadow. And trust me, if there is no one going to bang this boy's head on the wall, he will be another racist loser who will govern the country in future.

One more thing, I personally disgust with this Bumi, Non-Bumi thing. Nonsense, we are Malaysian. Ask the true Historian, Malays are not the real Bumi anyway. Orang Asli is the one who should have the privileges.

Stupido No Braino.
