Universities are independent entities

On the way to office, I will normally stop by at the coffee shop to purchase a copy of New Straits Times. The vendor will then give me a complimentary copy of The Sun. A good deal indeed - buy one free one. I will then having breakfast and flip through before driving to work. For the other newspapers, I will read up from the web.

Today, I am looking forward for my Thursday edition of The Sun. Prof Dr Shad Faruqi has a Thursday column on the constitutional law. I am his faithful student for many years.
I have collected the weekly articles he wrote in The Star back in year 2000-2001.

However, there was a heavy downpour in the early morning. The Sun did not arrive on time.

Anyway, I am still able to browse the online version of The Sun.


Prof highlighted that universities are independent entities. There is no provision in UUCA for universities to receive directives from cabinet.

This is refreshing as the words come from Prof. He leads a committee in reviewing the UUCA.
