Dear Mr. Koh,
If you had put up a brief on the discussion at the Scholarship committee on how and why the amount was to be given to the applicant, I am sure the Management Committee would have viewed the decision differently.
However, I hope the explanation given here will enlighten the members of the Management Committee.
While it is good to spread the amount among few applicants, it is also good to ensure the applicant is not faced with difficulty in obtaining the short fall for their need.
This is the first time the society is considering such an application for doing medicine. The President's view was that since we have the monies in the scholarship fund, we should consider the applicant's request.
1. The applicant had obtained PTPTN loan for an amount of RM150,000. The College had also given a scholarship for the Foundation course. Thus, the remaining amount that he need to complete the five year course was RM135,000.
2. The Committee felt that since he had obtained excellent results and not from a rich family, it would be an additional burden for him to obtain another loan with interest. (besides paying for the PTPTN loan).
3.Therefore, the committee unanimously decided to give it as a LOAN without interest instead of a scholarship. By doing so, the Fund will be replenished over the period and will be available for other deserving students.The committee further recommends that the amount be released annually on condition of him obtaining good results.
3. The other compelling reason was to avoid the unnecessary tension for the applicant and his family on the uncertainty of sourcing for the additional amount.
4. The committee encouraged him to seek scholarship from various other sources and if successful, there will be no need for the society to continue with this scheme.
Yours in service.

4. The committee encouraged him to seek scholarship from various other sources and if successful, there will be no need for the society to continue with this scheme.
5. The applicant was highly recommended by the President and the committee justly felt it is a worthy case to consider.
6. The annual commitment is RM30,000.
7. The Society's scholarship fund has not been given out for a long time and has been left to accumulate interest. Thus the committee concurred with the President to give out scholarships or loans to deserving applicants based on their academic performance with the family background as an important criteria.
In this case the applicant qualified for the scholarship. Since the amount is large the committee recommended an interest-free loan.
Therefore, the scholarship committee would appeal to the Management committee to accept the proposal as it is.

Subject: Scholarship for Deenish Raj a/l Rajendran
Dear Mr. Narayanan,At the last MC meeting on 3rd May, 2013, MC had requested that the Scholarship Board reconsider the award of scholarship of RM135,000 for Deenish Raj a/l Rajendran to do his medical course. The amount of payout will be amortized over 5 years. The fund is to be taken from Girlie Tan Education Fund. The MC felt it will be fairer if the scholarship from the fund be given to more applicants rather than one person only.. Please inform me if you wish to have another Scholarship Board Meeting to discuss this matter. Otherwise, can replies or views through e-mails be okay.? There is a need to give a clear report to the MC on how the decision was made for this award. The next MC meeting is 1st June, 2013. Kindly revert.
