KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong is questioning if channelling funds to a trust fund instead of an existing body under Tunku Abdul Rahman University College is in line with the Educational Institutions Act 1996.
Last Friday , Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng said about RM30mil had been approved for a trust fund for TAR UC and its students annually, provided that MCA relinquishes control of the institution."I propose this in Parliament – please fulfil your promise to give RM1,000 to each student," said Dr Wee. Lim had recently said TAA was not controlled by the Government or any Pakatan Harapan political party, but comprised successful former TAR UC students as well as a Finance Ministry representative."We have four representatives from the Education Ministry and one from the Finance Ministry on the board of governors.
Dr Wee reiterated that he has no problem to answer questions raised by several Pakatan lawmakers over TAR UC. At Parliament lobby later, Dr Wee questioned the legitimacy of the"TAR Education Foundation" which Lim announced and referred to in the Education Ministry's letter.
