2000 New Students Take The Oath

More than 2000 students who signed a code of conduct at the University of Malaya today were told that they could leave if they could not keep to their pledge.

Among other things, the code stipulates that the students must obey all laws, including the Universities and University Colleges Act, and accept the decisions made by the university council, senate and faculties.

(For an offence, a student could be liable for a fine of $1,000 or 6 months imprisonment, or both. On a conviction, he is automatically expelled and will be prevented from pursuing his higher education in Malaysia and elsewhere. Refer to 29-3-75 Salient; Malaysian Special).
