Institutes of higher learning not allowed to raise fees

KUALA LUMPUR: Institutes of Higher Learning are not allowed to increase tuition fees, based on the Higher Education Ministry's decision to place a moratorium on fee hikes since the second semester of the 2019/2020 academic session in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic.

In a statement Saturday (April 30), the Ministry said the government still bears the full operational costs of public universities.
