A philanthropist RM30 million donation pledge to build hostels for students of UTAR was rejected by MCA. The reason given by the MCA president is ignorance of such a huge offer. A claim by another MCA politician, Thong Fah Chong is because this philanthropist is claiming a seat on the UTAR Council.
A noble man with wisdom, Mr. Koon Yew Yin's had to come out with a press statement to rebut the claim by Thong's. Whether it's a sincere donation or self glorification, let the people be the judge, MCA !!!!!
Mr. Koon Yew Yin's is a co-founder of IJM Corp. A rich and low profile man with wisdom to help the poor in a noble way. A man who treasured the rich Chinese cultures and who want to instill back the values and virtue that are lost in today's materialistic society.
What's wrong with Mr. Koon Yew Yin's proposal to build the hostels and he be appointed as the Chairman of the Hostels Board of Directors and not a seat on UTAR Council, MCA ? Did Mr.Koon Yew Yin comes out with nonsensical conditions' with his proposal ? In honour of his donation, Koon Yew Yin wishes to have a tablet prominently displayed with these words inscribed to serve as a reminder :
"RECIPIENTS OF KOON YEW YIN'S SCHOLARSHIPS AND RESIDENTS OF KOON YEW YIN'S HOSTELS HAVE ONLY TO PROMISE HIM THAT WHEN THEY GRADUATE AND FINANCIALLY SOLVENT THEY WILL HELP OTHER POOR PEOPLE"
Chua Soi Lek, the public has the right to ask you, why the offer was rejected ? To plead one's ignorance of such an offer is unacceptable. Are you really ignorant or Mr. Koon's is a vulture, who is threatening your cronies, with their vast selfish stakes surrounding the housing estates in Kampar ?
I believe Mr. Koon Yew Yin's has a very good foresight in not trusting the crook politicians to handle his noble intentions as mostly the money will vanish into thin air. A resemblance of the Chang Ming Thien Foundation will occurred if the Foundation is managed by crooks. The late Mr. Chang Ming Thien's was the founder of United Malayan Banking Corporation ( UMBC ), now known as RHB Bank.
