OPEN LETTER TO CHIEF SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT
Dear Tan Sri Sidek Hassan,
I write this letter with a heavy heart after reading in the media that you have announced the Public Service Department (PSD) will offer scholarships to ALL students who scored 9As in their SPM examinations.
During my time, scholarships were meant for poor students who achieved good grades and are all rounder. Meaning the earning of the parents play the determine factor.
AA the head of the family salary is RM15,600 per month, allowance RM7,000 with a company car thrown in. His wife salary is RM6,200. They own two bungalow houses worth RM12 million. The eldest daughter is in Dublin under MARA LOAN. The second daughter is in USA under JPA scholarship, their only son is in Thailand boarding school on their own expense. The couple travel overseas every month for work cum holiday. Twice a year they go visit their children overseas. The children come back for their summer and winter holidays. They also own a yacht. The family own five cars. They have four full time maids.
BB the head of the family salary is RM4,780 per month. His wife RM6,800 per month. They own a semi-detached worth RM1.2 million. Their only son is in Wellington, New Zealand under JPA scholarship. The boy has dual citizenship, own an apartment in Wellington. Just bought a Ferrari and travels round the world during the holidays.
CC the head of the family salary is RM20,000 per month, allowance RM5,000, company car and director of two companies. Wife has her own company earning more than him. Their three kids are all under JPA scholarships
Tan Sri, the above cases are my friends who do not require free money from the government. The money you dish out to them are chicken feed. From their bedroom they can bring out cash RM1 million anytime and throw it to your face.
I, on the other hand require your kind assistance have begged and pleaded in vain. My daughter as you are aware is studying Forensic. In 2010 she will do her master and ballistic. By the time she finishes, she will be the first Malaysian Scientist for Forensic and Ballistic. You are aware from the supporting letter from Bukit Aman that this country is desperate in need of her service in time to come. Reasons given by various private and government for their rejection - forensic are not important or recognize in this country, the University of Sydney is only three stars. Did any one bother to check that University of Sydney is THE PLACE to do forensic? Whereas Monash and Curtin are lower in rank.
I personally feel that it is high time the abuse of dishing out scholarship to rich and strong cables should be stop. Priority should be to the poor family without race base. I mentioned this because I know of two Chinese girls who scored 5As 5Bs who were rejected from teachers training school, whereas my Malay neighbor’s daughter who score 5Cs 4Ds 1E was accepted.
Would appreciate that the next time you issue any statement, bear in mind people like myself are the ones you HURT THE MOST.
All my details are with you in case you wish to sue me or blacklist my other children.
