PSD scholarship issue resolved


KUALA LUMPUR: The Cabinet has resolved the controversy over the 86 students who failed to obtain Public Service Department (PSD) overseas scholarships by offering them scholarships to pursue degrees of their choice at local private higher education institutions.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz said this included twinning degrees, where students start their degrees at a local institution before completing their studies at a foreign partner university.
