“Kalau PTPTN nak dihapuskan, ia menelan kos RM43 bilion. Hanya tiga negara didunia yang tanggung sepenuhnya pengajian di universiti termasuk Norway tetapimengenakan cukai pendapatan yang tinggi.
“Adakah kita sebagai pembayar cukai sedia dikenakan cukai pendapatan yangtinggi semata-mata mahu menghapus kira PTPTN. Tentu ini tidak adil sama sekalikerana akan membebankan rakyat,” katanya - laporan penuh sila baca di ( SINI )
Apa yangpemangku Menteri Pembangunan Wanita, Keluarga dan Masyarakat cuba sampaikan disini ialah rakyat yangmembayar cukai akan terbeban dengan langkah pemansuhan PTPTN yang dicadangkanoleh Pakatan Rakyat itu..
Ini keranamenurutnya Norway mengenakan cukai yang tinggi untuk menyediakan pendidikanpercuma untuk rakyatnya..
Bagi aku yangmembayar cukai (tahun ni teragak-agak samada nak declare atau tidak.. sebab akunampak banyak yang dah disapu oleh pemimpin-pemimpin UMNO).. membayar cukaipendapatan yang tinggi demi kebaikan anak bangsa Malaysia bukanlah satu perkarayang menyakitkan hati..
Jika Najibkata hanya tiga negara di dunia ini yang menanggung sepenuhnya pengajian diuniversiti beliau sekali lagi cuba memperbodohkan rakyat Malaysia atau dalamlain ayat beliau menipu 1Malaysia..
Ini keranadari apa yang tercatat dalam Wikipedia bukanlah hanya tiga Negara tetapi lebihdari 20 buah Negara yang menyediakan system pendidikan percuma buat rakyatnyaini termasuklah Kenya dan juga Sri Lanka..
