LETTER | Is the decision that political parties should not control educational institutions a political one?

| When we made a decision that political parties should not control educational institutions, is this a political decision to begin with?

TAR UC and UTAR were born out of historical necessity. There was a dire need for education opportunities, especially for lower income non-bumiputeras, and TAR UC and UTAR have helped enormously to fill the gap. Is political control of education institutions ipso facto bad? It is bad when the institutions are used for politicking and discrimination. It is bad if the finances and governance of the institutions are abused. It is bad if standards and the academic vigour of the institutions are compromised due to external interference.

All these years, have we heard of TAR UC and UTAR practicing discrimination by excluding or rejecting applicants based on race, religion or political beliefs?
