Matriculation intake increase a compromise, says Perak DAP chief

PUTRAJAYA’S decision to increase the number of matriculation seats is a compromise following the faulty policy implemented by the previous administration, said the Perak DAP chairman. Nga Kor Ming described as “pathetic” the Barisan Nasional system to have 90% of seats allocated for Bumiputera students, with the remaining 10% for non-Bumiputeras, but said Pakatan Harapan cannot immediately do away with it.
