NOT INTERESTED IN WORLD RANKING

So Universiti Malaya (UM) is out from the Top 200 of the prestigious
2010 QS World University Rankings as reported in THE STAR.

Now what I can't stomach was the crap reaction that came from Higher
Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin who said:

We do not want to be obsessive about world rankings,
I ain't no academician but I learned from some motivational books was that
one gotta be obsessive and passionate about things you do in order to improve.
So we can take it from the Education Minister that we won't be improving
as far as education or world ranking is concerned, isssit? And our university
graduates would remain as 'unmarketable' and not competitive enough? WTF!

Further the Minister added: We also cannot be ‘ranked’ against other
universities whose ‘conditions’ and ‘environments’ are different
from ours. It is like comparing apples with oranges,”
Oh? What do you mean by conditions and environments? How different are
we Malaysians, from Singaporeans or Hongkies? I was taught we belonged
to the Asia continent.
University of Hong Kong (HKU) is on Top 23 and National University of
Singapore (NUS) on 31.
DAMMIT! Where are Malaysian universities? Don't we want to admit
there are flaws in our education system? Throwing out PPSMI was 1 fine
example that flawed.
