Standard of MUET will be increased.

According to this, the education ministry hopes to increase the standard of English among students to address the deficiency in English. The commencement of higher MUET requirement ensures that university and colleges created talented graduates with a decent order of the dialect and are able to land a position later on. Personally, I felt that the education ministry can do more. They need to come out with solutions such as increasing the standard for SPM first.

Banned talk featuring Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim at UM.

With reference to this case matter, I felt that he is trying to say his final words before going for trial on his sodomy case. I felt that the management of Universiti Malaya is trying to stop the support of Oppositions from the university students, First and foremost, we as a student deserve a right to stand up against corruption among the country. 

The university should be receptive and not playing governmental issues. Thus, we must voice out if there is any disappointment among the college policies.
