What are we doing to students? They should be lions and not mice. Stop pulling them down. Build them up. They are the future. Give them courage. Make them fierce! Stop the intimidation!
VC should leave the education sect and join politics. Otherwise University ranking will be affected.
When people love living in a box, this is what happens when you disrupt them.
UM says, In the incident which occurred at 10 am on Monday,a 23-yr-old graduate held up a placard denouncing racism and urged the university’s vice-chancellor to resign, to the surprise of guests and top UM administrators present at the ceremony. -so much hatred what did d VC do?
so VC should be sacked for attempt to incite racial hatred in his speech at a Congress which a uni organized that had no business to be doing except for political reasons.
Sokong VC UM 500%.
After a few years, nobody remembers the speech at the convo but this stunt will be remembered and retold to the next generation. He is now a legend!
Kenakan hukuman kpd pengkhianat perosak majlis. Unfair to other students who expected to spend a memorable and unblemished ceremony with our parents and families.
The uni admin betrays its vision n mission. How disgraceful and have the cheedk to say - 'UM has always upheld the principle of freedom of expression, however, as a higher education institution, it holds a great deal of responsibility in the education of the future generation.'
UM to the drain

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.
