Soon after 1957, a new chairman of the Overseas Cambridge Examination Syndicate was appointed. All our exams were organised by this CES. At that time we were still taking the Overseas School Certificate exam. What did the chairman do on taking office? Exam questions were being sold esp to tuition centres. At that time there were no photocopy machines. So the questions sold were 'original' ones. Apparently the new chairman ordered a few thousand extra copies which he surreptitiously sold for profit. In the inquiry, he somehow was absolved because he was connected. The lack of integrity was already evident. He was again involved in another issue which involved his integrity when he was a professor in a public university. So being professor doesn't mean anything in Malaysia. Letters before and after a name only matters to Bumis.

Allowances not approved but received should be returned. Better to disband this council ...

Whether "epitamy", "epitome", "infamy" or "Maggimy", all things great by Bolehlanders always end a nasty epitaph.

Instead of "epitamy" shouldn't the word be "epitome"?

What a bunch of shameless thieves!

But that should be ok as it matches the lack of academic integrity of the garbage kinds of institutions we have where both the academics and students engage in wholesale plagiarism for their bogus academic output.

As the universities continue to go down the pan, those in the National Professors' Council should reward themselves more, Alhamdullilah!

Otherwise, Bolehland should actually close all the universities as they produce fcuking rubbish graduates. Closing all the universities would save a lot of money. We won't have turd rate academics and graduates making bleeding arseh*les of themselves and shame the whole country. Besides, Bolehland can't produce jobs for the graduates, there's no point for higher education.

Singapore, with its superb international high standard of education, is right next door to us, there's plenty and more our monkeys can learn from it. Singapore pays its academic staff well. But the academics must have high standards. Which means our "professors" can't tf ever get employed there. Or in most countries, really...

Still our "professors" can't be all that bad. They at least know how to rather creatively enrich themselves in a highly questionable way.

Malay political elites are rotten to the core. Lack of integrity, dishonesty, thieving, hypocrisy, corruption, you name it they have it. After 60 yrs of Malay leadership this is the best they have to show. They were exposed once but it made no difference. The papers are filled with such criminality. Time for a sea change

"They were exposed once..."

Actually more than once.

The monkeys are so full of holes in their quality they are like fishing nets.

It just shows that people with good brains may not have a good heart, with good education may not have high moral values. Sadder still is the sense of entitlement that has been cultivated among some elites.😌👎

".. people with good brains... with good education..."

Surely you don't mean the clowns exposed in the article?
