KUALA LUMPUR, March 13 (Bernama) -- An allocation of RM17.3 million has been set aside by the Ministry of Education (MOE) for undergraduate degree scholarship programme this year, Deputy Minister Teo Nie Ching said.

It is an increase from RM14.8 million allocated last year, she said in reply to Wong Kah Woh (PH-Ipoh Timur) who wanted to know the types of scholarship and the amount of allocation set aside by the government for undergraduate degree programmes for 2018 and 2019.

In another development, Teo said the government’s move to provide funds for private colleges should not be disputed.
