: Student Representative Councils at various universities have lauded the Higher Education Ministry for amending the Universities and University Colleges Act 1971.

The amendments to Section 15A allow SRC or any student body to make, organise or take part in any collection of money, or receive money and other contributions from any person or body of persons, subject to any written law. International Islamic University Malaysia Student Union president Muntasir Aznan said the amendments provide students with increased autonomy, aligning with the ministry’s student empowerment objectives.

Universiti Malaysia Kelantan SRC president Luqman Hakim said the amendments provide confidence to student representatives nationwide to effectively carry out their responsibilities. The last time the Act was amended was in 2018 when Section 15 was repealed to allow students to take part in political party activities on campus.
