Due to covid-19, all public and private universities and colleges in Malaysia are lockdown until 31.12.2020.   Higher institutions are required to conduct Online Teaching instead of face-to-face.  ACE College will commence online teaching with regular interaction with students by either Zoom or Microsoft Team 365

News Release on 18th October 2012

The public demand for good administration of those officers in authority or ministry concerned has become more crucial issue in the coming 13th General Election.

 

As in the case of O’Reilly v Mackman reported in All England Report [1982], Lord Diplock reiterated :- 

 

“The public interest in good administration requires that public authorities and third parties should NOT be kept in suspense as to the legal validity of a decision the authority has reached in purported exercise of decision-making powers for any longer period than is absolutely necessary in fairness to the person affected by the decision”.

 

ACE College is forced to file court proceedings soon against the authority for groundless and unmeritorious delay for 5-month in its application.  This is the first and only time since its existence 25 years ago that such legal action is instituted to resolve abuse of powers.  It is hoped that those who are entrusted with public duties will resolve the matter amicably in the interest of education.

Press Release on 1st July 2009

 

The status of intake of international students has been referred to YB Minister of Home Affairs  for a decision :-

 

Section 89[1] Akta IPTS 1996 and Article 12[1]  of the Federal Constitution read as follows :-

Section 89 - Distinction of Race and Creed Prohibited:

"A private higher education institution shall be open to ALL persons irrespective of nationality (whether local or international students)"

 

Article 12 - Rights in respect of Education:

"There shall be no discrimination against ANY citizen (whether Malaysian or foreign citizen) on the grounds of race, descent or place (country) of birth"

 

Editorial Comments whether Private Higher Education is Recession-Proof?

 

This issue was raised in the Editorial Comments on 1st January 2009 (as stated below).  Judging by the numerous repeated advertisements from various private higher institutions which appeared in the mass media for the past four (4) months, it is evident that most private university colleges and colleges had not yet achieved its students intake target.

 

The editorial staff visited the 2009 Nampau-MQA Fair and ACEF 2009 by Malaysian Institute of Accountants on Saturday afternoon, 4th April 2009 at PWTC and Mid-Valley Megamall, Kuala Lumpur, respectively and found that the response from the general public was rather disappointing.

 

It is common knowledge that advertisements give good exposure for private higher education institutions concerned  but over-publicity can bring adverse results as the old saying goes -  "good wine needs no push".     This is  evident from the few advertisements received from  public universities.

 

EDITORIAL COMMENTS

Dated 15th April 2009

2009 Inaugural News & Events Release

The Management and Staff wish all students, readers, friends and associates a Happy and Successful 2009 New Year!!!

2009 will be eventful year in Malaysia and worldwide, particularly in view of the global financial crisis. Whether global financial crisis is related to global recession, it depends on the following factors :-

The last two recessions 1988 and 1998 in Malaysia and other ASEAN and Asian countries which lasted almost a decade, the western countries were having good times.    When Malaysia economy was booming, the western countries were in recession.

(a)   International institution investors are like a bump of bees, when there is no more honey, they will migrate to new territories.

(b)   International institution investors do not normally hoard monies or be contented to deposit their monies in financial institutions for safe-keeping   and even then some banks collapsed in United States during recession.

(c)  International institution investors are under obligation to pay good dividend to their clients, such as our EPF to the contributors.

(d)  The world economy is like a "See-Saw" instrument and fairly represented by white and yellow/black skin complexions.

Whether Malaysia will ride over recession will depend on the next six (6) months and whether the newly-elected Obama, took over office as President of United States, institutional investors’ confidence will return to western society.

In the light of the foregoing, it is unlikely that there will be global recession unless due to unprecedented developments in world economy scenario.

Is Private Higher Education Recession-Proof?

When the economy is booming, students are in no hurry for employment market as there are abundant of jobs waiting for them either in Malaysia or overseas, such as Singapore and China. Most students could opt for 1st, 2nd and even 3rd degrees as it is much more easier to obtain financing for their education.

During 1988 and 1998 when the economy slipped into recession, there was a sudden rush for jobs and many students adopted wait and see attitude for jobs. Whether this attitude prevails in future, it will definitely affect the private higher education institutions.

Many graduates working aboard either in Singapore, China or England will return home seeking for employment, thus creating shortage of jobs in the employment market.

Many big companies had adopted a prudent policy by down-sizing their operations to cut costs in order to survive during bad times. The small companies can survive better during recession with low-overheads as compared with big companies with high fixed costs.
