: Bersatu associate wing chief Dr Chong Fat Full has suggested that Universiti Teknologi Mara should cease admitting foreign students to uphold the UiTM Act 1976 .
Currently, UiTM is the only university that offers a parallel pathway programme in partnership with National Hearth Institute within the cardiothoracic domain, encompassing surgery and the management of heart and lung ailments. He suggested that UiTM could also accept qualified non-Bumiputera students without violating the UiTM Act.
He also commended Bersatu Youth Wing’s three alternative suggestions, which are to source talents from East Malaysia’s Bumiputera community, for Universiti Malaya to expedite a similar programme with the assistance of the Higher Education Ministry, and to allow non-Bumiputera students shortlisted for the field to register with other institutions of higher learning.
On May 15, Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir said the ministry strictly adheres to Clause 1A of Act 173, which states that UiTM was established in accordance with the provisions of Article 153 of the Federal Constitution.
