DAP backs PM’s new scholarship system

DAP lauded Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s announcement today to limit federal scholarships to university entrants instead of SPM top-scorers but urged the administration to lay out details of its plan immediately to avoid any misunderstanding.

DAP national publicity secretary Tony Pua (picture) told a press conference in Parliament today that the government should not dither on the matter and move quickly so that potential scholarship recipients would not be confused and would know “what is in store for them”.

“We support Najib’s announcement today but we hope that the PSD will carry out his directive as soon as possible,” he said.
