Losing Bright Workforce

This is not the first time that something like this has happened.

I had friends who got very good results, yet they were not given scholarships or acceptance to any universities etc.

This girl got 10 A1's for her last year's SPM, and found that her scholarship was rejected! This scholarship so-called gives guarantees to those who got 9A's and above. Furthermore, her matriculation application was also rejected!

I really don't know what's happening with our government and their stupid quota system. 60% entry or scholarships must be given to bumiputras or something like that?

That's a very wrong strategy! You're taking in lousy students to perform lousily and to contribute lousily to the society or nation!

Smart students from the Chinese and the Indian community who are not given the chance for scholarship are going to overseas to study. Take for example Singapore. Many Chinese friends whom i know are studying in Singapore, and they are very very bright students!

They plan to work in Singapore after they graduate. So, many potential smarties are lost. Malaysia fails to retain bright workforce here.

Do you get what i'm trying to say? When a smart student goes overseas to study, most of the time he/she will continue working there. His/her contribution, which is so beneficial, will benefit the country there, not Malaysia anymore!

While in Malaysia, our brainless government keeps giving scholarships to bumiputras who are not even performing well. When they graduate, nobody is going to be benefited. Our country will keep moving backwards, it already is starting to do so anyway.

Where is your so-called "fairness" and "justice" to ALL Malaysians? I don't care about your bumiputras being the largest population or your "special treatment", what i'm saying is our government's policy is not benefiting this country. We're losing smart workforces!

Quite fed up with this kind of news. Losing smart students to countries overseas!
