All the ruckus about the unfair distribution of PSD scholarships must have caused a stir in every non malay's belly, and the question promptly pops out.. ' will my children 20 years from now get PSD scholarships? ' I am one person who have lived in malaysia for the last 30 years and now startled by how kiahsu and niggardly we have become . All these politicians and rakyat who are shouting about are really missing the point, the most important one at least.
What are these PSD scholarships all about? It is a financial aid for you to study in the local or foreign universities. Does it mean you get a place to study in the universities? No it doesn't. You have to secure a place first in the universities and only then you are given the scholarship. The scholarship is given to students after they have been screened by the staff of the universities such as professors and other lecturers. So if you have failed to secure a scholarship from PSD, does it mean you cant pursue your chosen course? No it doesn't. It just means you have to finance your studies by other means. Why screen the students first? Good question. Because a lot of these immatured numbskulls are asking for all kinds of courses without any real interest or passion in them. The frequaent answer you get when you ask them " Why you want to medicine?" is ' Ahh.. my motherla.. my grandmother laa... my father laaa... who ask me to do, so i do loh' or ' Why not? Got 20 As what! ' or ' My garndfather made me promise on his deathbed before he kicked the bucket' . Bullshit...
Do you really need the scholarship? when i was studying in medical school, i was given about RM 8000 a year by PSD. But the university fees did not come to that total a year. It was about RM 6000 a year only. Even that because i had stayed in the college. The hostel fees itself cost about RM 2ooo every six months. We were paying about RM 10 a day. the tuition fees for the public university , in this case Universiti Malaya was only about RM 1800 a year. Plus all the fees for the microscope rental, the swipe cards, our identification tags, computer labarotary usage and miscalaneous charges made up about RM 500 a year. So to add up, in a year you end up paying about RM 4000 + RM 1800 + RM 500 = RM 6300 only. And thats for medical studies. Think about the other courses that cost much less. Who cant pay that a year? Almost every body is able to pay. But never forget there may be the very low income groups that may need the financial aid. For example rubber tappers, miners, fishermen, retirees, widows or single mothers who are living like the phrase ' kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang'. those arethe people that reall yneed the help. Not all those who have their own cars, expensive mobile phones, rich daddys , or the ones who wear giorgio armani to college. I really needed the scholarship to study as my mother was not employed and a widow.
So why are so many Chinese and Indian buggers in the country shouting for scholarships? Are they really so poor they cant afford to pay RM 6000 a year for their children? You can go and gamble thousand away in Genting each month after payday and buy so much of thody and lager beer a day but you cant pay for your children's education ah? What the fuck were you doing for the last 20 years? i would ask the same question to my father if he was still alive today. You want to demand so much when it only takes RM 5.50 a day to save everyday for 20 years since the day your son or daughter was born. calculate yourself. RM 8000 x 5 = RM 40000 ( the scolarship is for 5 years) . then divide by 20 years = Rm 2000 a year. then divide again 365 days = Rm 5.479 a day. What the fuck ? You cant do that? and this is for studying medicine man.
So scholarships are for the really hardcore poor people like the ones i listed above. And they are some doctors I know who are applying for scholarships for their children! This just shows how inconsiderate we have become in our lives to want to grab an oppoturnity that was initially crafted for the needy but gifted.
So now some kiahsu Chinese and Indian buggers ask ' Why not my son get the scholarship? He has studied his ass off for the last 14 years or so to get the results and the scholarship is my son's right.' His rights? Dont say that man. You dont know the meaning of scholarships. Does your son getting 10 As, or 20 As or 30 As in SPM justifies him getting financial aid in spite of you driving a BMW? No it does not. You dont need the money.
And some bloody fools want to study in overseas.. What? these guys are bigger jokers. What you think that the foreign graduates are better than our local grads is it? come and see in hospitals and i will show you that these graduates from Ireland, Scotland and Russian are worthless fools. a specialist even commented to a house officer in Alor setar that the government is wasting money on them. the local graduates are far better performers than the foreign ones. I as wellas many of my colleagues can guarantee that. why you ask? Because these students in overseas cant understand a single shit that the lecturer is talking about. Surela.. foreign language and that Irish accent, eventhough sexy to hear, try learning form one of those guys. You will know what I mean.
And morover , what do yopu think your degree is worth? The SPm syllabus nowadays is so easy and the results of so many students are so unbelievable. Go read this article from masterwordsmith in malaysia today entitled ' delusional standards in malaysian education'. Try not to get a heart attack.
And something about those monkeys w2ho are applying for scholarships to study in universities after SPM. As i pointed out above, who the hell do you think you are? Why not take STPM first and prove yourself first. STPM is a goldmine for the brightest minds and the government knows that. That is why you dont hear about any top scorer in STPM not getting place in the universities. But thos buggers still want to grab Malay seats in matriculation institutions. What for? The matriculation program was meant for Malay students only during a time when only 'A' levels or STPM or equivalent exam graduates are allowed to enter universities. But when the universities started to take in SPM qualified students, the matriculation program was a mere entrance ticket for Malays into medical programs. This was created by Tun Dr. Mahathir to create a balance of Malay and non Malay ratios in medical studies in higher education centers and this was a brilliant idea and accepted generally as all races stood a chance to enter medical programs eventhough it was judged as being racial or partial to the Malays. Why? Because my Malays friends who entered UM thru Matriculation programs have told that the exam was really easy, best explained by ' tutup mata boleh pass, kalau belajar baik mesti four flat' . So dont la want to grab Malay chances.. we have to give them some space too. Not because they are less smart. it is because we Chinese and Indians each have 5000 years of civilization running in our veins... and this was admitted by TDM himself in his book 'The Malay Dilemma'.
