Zambry Abdul Kadir, the Higher Education Minister of Malaysia, has reaffirmed the government's commitment to ensuring no Malaysian is denied a place at university due to their background. Speaking at a presentation of undergraduate degree tuition sponsorship letters to outstanding 2025 STPM students, Zambry emphasized the importance of providing access to higher education for all Malaysians, regardless of their ethnicity or socioeconomic status.
He highlighted that the government's scholarship programme has already admitted 30 top STPM scorers, with recipients attending various fields of study at universities such as Universiti Malaya and Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris. Zambry urged the new undergraduates to focus on enjoying their studies and treating challenges as opportunities for growth, while also cautioning against neglecting character and values in their pursuit of academic success.
