Together, Building
a Better Petaling Jaya

It has been an extraordinary journey serving the people of Petaling Jaya for the past two years.

While I’ve actively participated in parliamentary debates and taken clear positions on national issues, my unwavering focus remains on tackling challenges on the ground. I am deeply committed to solving local problems—from improving public transportation and youth training to addressing the needs of our aging society and strengthening community engagement.

Every day, I strive to enhance public service delivery, not through rhetoric but through persistent, hands-on efforts.

My aspiration is to work alongside you—to drive change from the grassroots, through our constituency, and all the way to the national level.

As I’ve always said: Let’s ensure Petaling Jaya remains a sustainable, prosperous, and liveable heart of the Klang Valley!

First-class graduates from private universities (IPTS) deserve the same PTPTN loan waiver opportunities as their public university (IPTA) peers — provided they are bound by service bonds and continue serving the nation.

Many of these high-performing students did not choose IPTS by preference, but by circumstance — limited public university placements left them few options. Some come from underprivileged families, working part-time just to afford tuition and living costs.

Yet today, these same hardworking Malaysians are excluded from PTPTN loan waivers, even after achieving first-class honours.

With a modest allocation of just RM100 million a year — equivalent to only 0.6% of the RM15.5 billion in targeted subsidy savings — Malaysia could support more than 3,000 top graduates annually. This small investment would help retain high-achieving talents, address admission inequities, curb brain drain, and strengthen the national talent pipeline.

Our latest CROSS study calls for the reinstatement of PTPTN loan waivers for first-class IPTS graduates, paired with fair and enforceable service bonds to ensure these bright minds continue to contribute to Malaysia’s future.

if the court already ruled that the police abducted Pastor Raymond Koh, then why are they still talking about “investigating”? Shouldn’t the police be releasing him, not pretending to “investigate” themselves? It makes no sense — how can the very people accused of the abduction now act like they’re searching for answers? If they took him, they already know where he is. What Malaysians want isn’t another report — it’s for Pastor Koh to be returned, or at least for the truth to finally be told.

Attended 2024 STPM Mandarin Subject Excellence Award Ceremony organised by the Persatuan Kemajuan Bahasa Cina Malaysia, I was proud to celebrate the achievements of outstanding students , yet it was impossible not to touch on the challenges many face when applying to public universities.

In reality, Chinese students make up only about 15% of total STPM candidates, but the struggle for university admission is not exclusive to any single community.

Students from all backgrounds encounter similar barriers in securing their desired courses and institutions.

This is not a flaw in the system itself, but a policy imbalance that needs to be addressed.

True reform takes both the dedication of past advocates and the courage of the new generation to speak up and push for change.

要对承诺过的誓言负责。雪州应该在西马领先承认统考文凭。那样可以挽救大量支持选票,也可以保留本地人才,为以后的半导体行业储备有用的人力资源。现在大多数的统考人才都被新加坡台湾吸收去搞高端产品了。马来西亚改革些什么?

Sampai saya pun serba salah nak bagi markah, semua hebat!Muka pun dah nampak gelisah masa tu.

Tapi yang paling saya kagumi,di bawah terik matahari, setiap pelajar tetap semangat dan berjaya habiskan tugasan dengan senyuman. 👏

Tahniah kepada semua atlet kecil dan pasukan guru yang bertungkus-lumus menjayakan hari sukan ini!

🎓 Semalam di Kamar Khas, saya membangkitkan isu pelajar cemerlang IPTS yang tidak mendapat pengecualian bayaran balik PTPTN. Terima kasih kepada KPT atas jawapan yang diberikan namun terus terang, jawapan itu amat mengecewakan. Timbalan Menteri berkata kajian untuk mengembalikan semula skim pengecualian graduan kelas pertama IPTS memerlukan masa setahun.

❓ Persoalannya bukankah skim ini sudah pernah wujud sebelum ini? Kenapa perlu tunggu setahun lagi? Setahun terlalu lama, pelajar baru tamat belajar, semangat mereka masih tinggi, tapi dasar pula “masih dikaji”.

💰 Selepas pelaksanaan subsidi bersasar, kerajaan telah menjimatkan sekitar RM15.5 bilion ringgit setahun. Untuk menghargai pelajar paling cemerlang di negara ini, hanya memerlukan sekitar RM100 juta takkan itu pun tak mampu?

Saya akan terus mendesak KPT supaya memberikan jawapan yang jelas, dan memperjuangkan hak pelajar IPTS yang cemerlang ini. 💪

🎓 Yesterday at Parliament’s Kamar Khas, I raised the issue of top IPTS graduates who are still denied PTPTN loan exemptions. I appreciate the response from the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE) but frankly, it was disappointing. The Deputy Minister stated that the study to reinstate the PTPTN exemption for First-Class Honours IPTS graduates would take one year. ❓ The question is wasn’t this policy already in place before? Why do we need to wait another year? A year is far too long these students have just graduated, their motivation is still strong, yet the policy remains “under review.” 💰 After implementing targeted subsidies, the government is saving around RM15.5 billion every year. To reward the nation’s brightest students would only cost around RM100 million — surely that’s affordable? I will continue pressing the Ministry of Higher Education to provide a clear answer and to fight for the rights and recognition that IPTS top students truly deserve.
