Vice-chancellors must earn their posts


THE recent statement by Congress of Unions of Employees in the Public and Civil Services (Cuepacs) secretary-general Abdul Rahman Mohd Nordin on the delayed appointment of vice-chancellors in the five public universities should be taken seriously by the Higher Education Minister.

However, rushing to make these important appointments would also be a dangerous undertaking. The proper procedure for appointing vice-chancellors of public universities must be followed prudently. The candidate must pass the AKEPT (Leadership Academy of Higher Education) and Malaysia Anti- Corruption Commission screenings.
