A blog of a Malaysian academic

With the rigged and dubious selection and promotion system, Malaysians have elevated several characters with dubious qualifications and personality to lead and teach institutions entrusted in educating and preparing our youth for the challenge of globalisation. It is a well known fact, ensuring a bright academic careers requires nothing less but total reverence and loyalty to institutional superiors which in turn answer to their political masters. Do not get me wrong, we do have excellent academics like Prof Azmi Sharom (UM) and Prof Wazir (UM). They are but a minority and helpless in a rigged and corrupt system.

Prof. Muhd Kamil Ibrahim is the head of UiTM-ACCA Financial Research Centre. Read his blog here. Gauge and judge for yourself intelligence and articulation.
