Gabungan Mahasiswa Islam SeMalaysia (Gamis) has called for the vice-chancellors of the country’s nine public universities to resign, following the Auditor-General's Report 2014 revealing mismanagement of the universities.

"We believe that the mismanagement of the universities was because the vice-chancellors did not follow rules and procedures," Majlis Politik Nasional Gamis chairperson Saiful Mujahid told a press conference in Putrajaya today.

Gamis members were at the Ministry of Higher Education in the federal administrative capital to submit a memorandum calling on the ministry to take action against all the vice-chancellors.

Gamis deputy president Ahmad Fahmi Mokhtar ( photo ) said he wondered why the activities of student activists, such as that of Gamis, were monitored very closely, but multi-million ringgit projects approved by the vice-chancellors often passed under the radar.

The student activists also called on the government to make further investigations into the mismanagement of the universities and to initiate efforts to curb such things from happening again.

They were told that their memorandum would be delivered to the relevant officers in the ministry on Monday.

Saiful said they would give the ministry four days from Monday to respond to their concerns.

"If they don't reply within four days, we will come here again," he declared.
