ALl these Universities never been published in the papers locally, which means not recognised or doesn’t exist. JPA and MQA should confirm whether these degrees from these universities are recognized. These universities are in website but are they Recognized is the question. Surprise that even those bn goons have to resort to fake degress. There are countless uni all over the world which provide easy courses and dish out degrees upon completion. Why buy one and dig own grave? No wonder bolehland is in a mess with high debts, massive corruption from top to bottom, increase in crime rate, rampant bigotry, bloated and inefficient civil service and on the path to bankruptcy and ruins.And fake degrees are in keeping with Najib’s fake 1Malaysia transformation which is in keeping with Mahathief’s fake Bangsa Malaysia visi 2020 all of which are as fake as that heavily Botoxed first woman.Fake degree is cheating. This is serious and a step to ….. I felt cheated when I had a good working staff with the same,and we have to dismiss him wehen we found out later for this unethical action. sad…
DAP election strategist Ong Kian Ming has questioned the academic qualifications of five Selangor BN candidates, which he claims come from questionable foreign education institutions.
Ong (left) named two parliamentary and three state candidates and questioned how BN could claim to have a “competent, dynamic and progressive” line-up when these candidates had degrees from bogus universities.
The BN candidates were revealed yesterday with great fanfare by Selangor BN chairperson Najib Abdul Razak, the DAP election strategist said.
Even Selangor BN coordinator Mohd Zin Mohamed, Ong pointed out, also had said that its candidates “are highly competent, dynamic and progressive qualified individuals from various backgrounds who can take the state to greater heights in tandem with the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP)”.
Selangor BN coordinator Mohd Zin – you can’t even do a simple QC check at this level; habis, macam mana to trust & expect UMNO/BN to perform at state level? Aiya….this is what happens when you spent more time sending unsolicited SMS to us, rather than providing a team with unquestionable integrity.
“It is highly disappointing that five BN candidates, two at the parliamentary and three at the state level, listed academic qualifications from institutions that can be best described as ‘degree mills’ – in other words, fake universities and colleges that issue bogus academic degrees for a payment,” Ong said.
“I call upon these five BN Selangor candidates to explain and to refute the fact that all of them have listed qualifications from reported degree mills. If they cannot properly explain to the voters, I urge them to withdraw themselves from contesting in the 13th general election.”
Of the five named as possessing qualifications from the “degree mills”, one is from Gerakan, one from Umno and three from the MCA.
“Truthfully speaking, having academic qualifications, even at the post-graduate level, from prestigious universities all over the world do not automatically make a person a better candidate than someone without a degree.
“However, candidates who feel as if they had to ‘buy’ a degree, either at the undergraduate or postgraduate levels, inevitably call their own integrity into question.
“If these candidates are willing to dupe voters about their academic qualifications, which is an important part of any person’s life, what other areas of life would these candidates be willing to lie about, including in areas of public interest such as the management of public funds and the proper and responsible use of public resources,” Ong asked.
Meanwhile, caretaker Deputy Foreign Minister A Kohillan Pillay, who is one of the five named responded immediately, asking Ong to provide the evidence to his claim.
“Anyway I will see about suing Ong for making such an allegation,” Kohillan told Malaysiakini. readmoreOur police should investigate Kohilan Pillay the Psychopat
Voters remains unconvinced about Barisan Nasional candidate P Kamalanathan’s educational qualification.
“The certificate in fact raises more questions than it provided answers. Is this certificate a forgery?”
“We also tried using six different name variations but they all came back blank.
“Note that the name we used in the search on ‘Claire’ was not complete yet it came back positive. It could still trace the details even with the incomplete name,” he said, providing screenshots of the searches done and a link to the search engine.
Verbal confirmation from Olympia College
News portal Malaysian Insider also reported article today that Olympia College had verbally confirmed that Kamalanathan was a registered student at the college and completed his course.
Olympia’s academic director Tan Chee Seng said Kamalanathan’s actual student record was no longer available.
However, he added that he remembered Kamalanathan, and he confirmed that Kamalanathan did an external course in communications, majoring in public relations with the Australian varsity.
Tan also explained that universities sometimes kept separate registers for off-campus students and that might explain why a search of the ECU alumni roll turned up nothing, as claimed by Raja Petra.
Tan also revealed that Olympia College processed only one batch of students with ECU before both sides terminated the programme in 2004.
In a previous posting, Raja Petra had said that Olympia College did not offer a Bachelor in Communications and that ECU did not offer off-campus courses in the subject.
Kamalanathan had previously said that he completed the course entirely off-campus.
The 44-year-old BN candidate, who is actively campaigning for the Hulu Selangor parliamentary seat, could not be reached for comment today.
