PETALING JAYA: Get rid of the quota system for the matriculation programme, say parents and teachers. “Many students have the misconception that the matriculation programme is tough, so they apply to other institutions. “The capacity available in our matriculation programme should be maximised for this purpose,” he said on Wednesday. Gerakan national president Datuk Dr Dominic Lau said the government should abolish the race-based quota system, which the party has been objecting to. The enrolment of the matriculation programme, he added, should be done on merit.
