Syed Saddiq: It’s time to regulate paid internship

PETALING JAYA: Regulation pertaining to paid internship programme is needed to address inequality faced by undergraduates, says former youth and sports minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman.

He said students were merely asking for a living allowance that would allow them to cover their core expenses while undergoing industrial training, and not demanding for a minimum wage of RM1,500.
