Govt urged to cancel Lincoln College’s licence

PETALING JAYA: A PKR leader today sought the withdrawal of a licence given to Lincoln University College (LUC) to run an offshore medical programme in the Ukraine.

Malacca PKR vice chairman G Rajendran, referring to a report that LUC was one of four private colleges that were fined last year for breaching a moratorium on nursing courses, said it was “strange” that the government had ignored this bad record when approving the licence last Nov 29.

However, it is not clear whether the breach was discovered before or after Nov 29.

The disclosure of the offence came last March 26 from Deputy Higher Education Minister Hou Kok Chung, who was replying to a question in Parliament. The moratorium, to address the problem of oversupply of nurses, has been in place since July 2010.

Politically Motivated And Abuse Of Power !

Parti Sosialis Malaysia (PSM) condemn the move by the police and the Attorney General office in this move to charge leaders of the Opposition in relation to the Bersih 3.0 rally supported and endorsed by hundreds of thousands of people.

This act is definitely politically motivated and abuse of power to create fear among the people and to remind the masses that the State will act against those who exercise freedom of assemble as well as go against any person who goes against their interest. This move puts to shame Najib’s political reforms and is a mockery.
