Still very heavy!!
What an excellent start to 2008! The first picture says it all… it was the same exciting thought on every parent’s mind, ``Wow! We don’t have to buy textbooks this year!’’
Yes, and that made all the kids happy too.
There was no need to stay up the night and pack all the brand new text books into a brand new school bag.
So, the first schooling day of 2008 saw parents sending off their kids with very light bags.
The kids were overjoyed. They didn’t have to bend over lugging heavy school bags with all the text books they had bought.
Some just slung the bag over their shoulder of off they went!!
But, the scenario was totally different went they came returned back from school. It was the same picture of 2007!! Little kids with bulging bags, trudging home.
So, what do we do? The solution is simple of course. Just take some time off in the night to pack the school bag according to the timetable given by your teachers.
Then, you won’t complain about heavy bags anymore. And, you won’t have to worry that you might forget to bring any book because your teacher will follow the timetable given to you.
So, parents and kids, be happy.
It is a wonderful start to the year 2008 with free books and less fees to pay. All you got to do is pay attention and enjoy your year at school.
Time is precious. Enjoy every minute of it.

SSPN account needed for loan
All parents must now open a National Education Savings Scheme (SSPN) account in order to qualify for a government study loan.
Under a new ruling that comes into force this year, parents with a monthly household income of less than RM2,000 must have deposited at least RM500 in their account to qualify for a loan under the National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN).
Parents who earn more than RM2,000 monthly must have saved up at least RM3,000.
PTPTN private higher education loan division manager Abdul Ghaffar Yusop said that only orphans are exempted from this new ruling.
“Parents can deposit as little as RM20 a month. The main advantage of the SSPN is that the Government provides a matching grant of up to RM10,000 for parents who earn less than RM2,000 monthly,” he said.
Abdul Ghaffar was one of the three speakers at the Funding Higher Education talk, held in conjunction with Star Education Fair 2008 which ended yesterday at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.
Other benefits of the SSPN, which is administered by PTPTN, include yearly dividends that are tax-exempt.
In his talk, Abdul Ghaffar advised students to check whether the institution of higher learning they intend to study in is registered with the Higher Education Ministry.
“Make sure that the course you want to do is accredited by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency too. This is important as only courses and colleges that are recognised by these two bodies are eligible for PTPTN loans,” he said.
Star Education Fund manager Richard Foo reminded students to put effort into their scholarship application forms.
“Don’t do it at the last minute. Your application form will determine whether you are called for the scholarship interview,” Foo said, adding that this year the fund will be giving out scholarships worth RM10.3mil from 42 educational institutions to 341 students.
Doreen John, an education adviser with the Malaysian-American Commission on Educational Exchange, advised students interested in the United States as a study destination to look for institutions that offer tuition fee waivers.
“More than 300 colleges and universities in the US give tuition fee waivers,” John said.
Another tip was to consider studying in south and central US states, where the cost of living is lower, and at community colleges, where tuition fees are more affordable.

More ties with Beijing varsity
THE Education Ministry will work more closely with the Beijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) in the areas of student exchange and teacher training.
Education Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said this after BFSU president Prof Hao Ping and senior officers from the Embassy of China in Malaysia paid him a courtesy call at his office on Jan 15.

PTPTN Education Loan Scheme
The PTPTN Education Loan Scheme was set up with the aim of providing education loans to students pursuing their studies in local institutions of higher learning (IPT). This loan will enable students to fully or partially pay their fees and their subsistence for the duration of their study in the IPT. Thus, this scheme provides greater opportunities to students to continue their tertiary education.
The scope of the PTPTN education loan facility is limited to students pursuing studies at the diploma and first degree levels in IPTs established under the following acts:
- Universities and Universities Colleges Act 1971
- Institut Teknologi MARA Act 1976
- Private Higher Education Institutions Act 1996
- Education Act 1996
Star Education Fund
With a diploma or degree increasingly becoming the minimum requirement in the job market, students not only have to study hard to get the required grades but also think about how to finance their studies.
With 341 awards worth RM10.3mil, the Star Education Fund is one of the larger bodies offering scholarships in cooperation with various private institutions of higher learning.
Star Education Fund manager Richard Foo will be speaking more on the scholarships available under the fund during the Funding Higher Education talk at Star Education Fair 2008.
The talk will be held in Ballroom 1 of the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre at 12.45pm on Sunday.
Foo said he would inform the audience about what was available in the 2008 Fund, and also how students could apply for the scholarships.
“I will also be touching on what students should consider in order to choose the right course, as well as tips on how to prepare for scholarship interviews,” he added.
Foo will be joined by a representative from the National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) and Malaysian-American Commission on Educational Exchange educational adviser Doreen John.
The PTPTN representative will be speaking on loans available from companies, while those interested in studying in the United States can learn how to obtain funding from American universities from John.
