SPM students who have not received offer letters to do matriculation can appeal to the education ministry.

PETALING JAYA: The education ministry has clarified that the 2,200 places for Indian students and 1,000 places for Chinese in the matriculation programme last year was a “one-off” initiative.

In a statement today, the ministry said for 2019, the matriculation programme quota will continue to be based on a 90:10 basis, with 90% of places going to Bumiputera students and 10% for non-Bumiputeras, based on meritocracy. The implementation of this new policy is more balanced, in line with the government’s plan to empower the lower-income group, the ministry said.

The ministry said the original aim of the matriculation programme was to develop the potential of Bumiputera students in the science, technology and professional fields through quality pre-university education.
