06/16/2009 11:09 AM From Nazri, 2,000 PSD foreign s’ships for 2008 SPM students – 1,100 bumiputeras and 900 non-bumiputeras. Cost RM659 million.

06/16/2009 10:44 AM On why govt not spending more 4PSD s’ships 4topscorers when RM12.5 billion in PKFZ scandal can give places for >1,000 students,no answer.

06/16/2009 10:36 AM Nazri trotted out standard govt line on this issue n refused 2respond when asked why list of 400 s’ships awarded on merit not made public.

06/16/2009 10:34 AM I asked why there is still “annual begging season” 4top scholars 4PSD s’ships after 1Malaysia anncd by Najib, which must mean colour-blind? 06/16/2009 10:30 AM I raised JB student Tan Hao Chong (11A1s 1A2) not given PSD s’hips, though MCA Youth Wee said after SPM 400 places awarded solely on merit

06/16/2009 10:08 AM Parliament begins with 1st question, Nazri answering, on the annual “begging season” by top scholars for PSD scholarships.
