The appointment of Danesh Raj Nagarajan as a member of the Board of Directors of Universiti Malaya (UM) will raise the voices of young people to a higher level, said Higher Education Minister Noraini Ahmad.
Noraini (above) said she had personally scrutinised the list of the proposed members from the alumni of the university by looking at the criteria available before the appointment was made.
“He is an active alumni. I was given a list, looked at the criteria available, so the Higher Education Ministry appointed a former student who represented the alumni.
“We must give them the opportunity because they can help the university. We have the board, community representatives, senate, various categories for the young people to speak out and make various related programmes,” she said.
Noraini said this after participating in the vaccination programme to bedridden patients with Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamid in Bagan Datuk, about 110km from Ipoh today.
She was commenting on media reports quoting the Universiti Malaya Students’ Union yesterday which questioned the appointment of Danesh Raj.
