You guys are writing comments and insulting University students without knowing the truth behind private medical education in this country. Up until now we have the best medical treatments in this country despite meager facilities provided by the government. This is mainly because we had the best brains in this country as medical doctors irrespective of their financial situation. This is also due to free education. If you check the A/L qualifications of those medical students in SAITAM, most of them were not selected to any course in any of the state universities in this country. Their Z-scores are way below the cut-offs for university entrants while the State Universities need Z-scores over 1.8 minimum. All those SAITAM students are children of of well connected and well-to-do parents. Therefore after passing out they get unauthorized illegal assistance from their parents, most of whom are consultant medical practitioners, to do postgraduate studies and become consultants.

unbelievable government thugs can waste colossal amount of taxpayers money nobody whimpers. But when students go against underqauilfied university everybody starts crying about their tax money. Im sure most of these internet pandits would have been plucking coconuts if free education wasnt there. via DM Android App

These students has entered university to study how to protest and get a "graduation in protests", so what they are doing in streets now are to gain their practical knowledge for graduation. So people should not worry or take any serious of these fools forever......as they will be in streets even after they are out of the university, sorry for their parents and their hard earn money....
