YOURSAY | ‘No educational institution receiving substantial gov’t funding should have political affiliations.’

I kept scratching my head on why MCA kept saying the government has breached a binding contract by not giving RM60 million to Tunku Abdul Rahman University College .

The elephant in the room is why did MCA allow the previous instrument of government to be revoked? MCA basically traded off their right to receive a guaranteed sum in return for an amount that can turn out to be a zero. Why?I am appreciative of the various governance policies put in place, MCA’s role in setting up TAR UC and developing it till the current stage, and all the financial contribution to the university by Malaysians of various walks of life.

Ultimately, the real issue here is that MCA remains committed to keep TAR UC under the party to use a political weapon. If MCA had genuinely wanted the best for TAR UC, it would have cut ties with the institute a long time ago.I find it disturbing that the very people involved in the approval for TAR UC to be converted from a public to a private trust, such as the previous TAR UC president and the Alumni Association, are the same people with control of the RM40 million cookie jar.

What was also left out of the long-winded article was the amount of fees collected from students over the past 50 years. In addition, in the past, TAR UC collected development fees and that could easily be over RM100 million. The parents of students were also sent letters asking for donations. I have to hold back my vomit. MCA admitted TAR UC is private and is yet asking for government handouts.

Of course, they blamed the BN government. The eventual recognition of the advanced diplomas and the upgrading to UC were all pre-election goodies showing how they have advanced through the backdoor.
