Hindraf worries that non-Malays might see a rebate in their opportunities for university education.
KUALA LUMPUR: Hindraf currently sought declaration from Higher Education Minister Khalid Nordin that foreign universities would go on to recognise a STPM obligation despite a not long ago announced shift in a format of a Form Six examination. W Sambulingam, national coordinator of a Hindu rights group, pronounced he feared that a shift would result in "victims of institutionalised racism" being denied a event to aspire to serve education.
He pronounced most STPM students were non-Malays with outstanding SPM formula who were denied a event to matriculate for internal universities.
"So, a question now is either a re-formatted examination will be accepted by overseas universities as a valid pre-university exam," he pronounced in a press statement.
"We wish a apportion to publicly yield his declaration on this matter."
"It's really consequential to safeguard a STPM examination is not being narrowed down for only internal public universities. It must sojourn recognised internationally. Otherwise, a victims of institutionalised racism can never become university graduates."
According to an proclamation last week by Malaysian Examinations Council authority Mohd Noh Dalimin, school-based assessments will now minister 20% to 40% of a marks students have to amass for a STPM certificate. The brand new format is effective for students currently in Lower Form Six.
The current STPM obligation is recognised as homogeneous to Britain's A-Level GCE by most universities in a Commonwealth, Ireland as well as a United States.
