PSD flip-flop must end


I REFER to Wong Chun Wai’s article “Our young talents, our assets” (Sunday Star, March 26) with the standfirst: “We should treasure our up-and-coming bright minds instead of confusing them and making them feel unappreciated. We want to keep our brains in this country, remember?” This statement is precise, sharp and hits the right chord.

Year after year, our students are besieged by feelings of confusion and lack of direction because of the changing policies of the Government on the awarding of education scholarships especially for SPM candidates.
