DAP Youth chief Howard Lee reminds the minister of five possible solutions to matriculation quota issue.
DAP Youth has urged Education Minister Maszlee Malik to retract his remark linking the matriculation intake quota to the Chinese language requirement for some jobs.
Last week, Maszlee had defended the matriculation system during a talk at Universiti Sains Malaysia, arguing that providing equal opportunities to all races should not only be looked at from the"Matriculation is just a road to university, just like a diploma, STPM and so on. But the matriculation programme gives the chance for the poor to advance their studies at the pre-university level.
As a measure to address limited infrastructure or costs, Lee said the government could consider opening up an existing 15,000 spots for foundation programmes at existing public universities as part of the matriculation programme.
