Universiti Malaya Association of New Youth (Umany) has claimed that STPM top scorer Edward Wong was offered admission into the university, but only through its controversial direct intake system “Satu”, which costs “up to ten times higher.”
In a statement today, the group expressed solidarity with Wong and urged both the government and Universiti Malaya (UM) to explain why he was denied entry into the accounting programme via the University Central Unit (UPU).
