KUCHING, Oct 13: Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) continues to walk the talk by allocating RM200 million for the Free Tertiary Education Scheme (FTES) under Budget 2027, benefiting up to 10,600 students and reaffirming the Sarawak government’s commitment to making higher education more accessible.
Bukit Assek assemblyman Chieng Jin Ek said the continuation of FTES demonstrated Sarawak government’s determination to translate its promises into tangible benefits for the people, particularly younger Sarawakians pursuing higher education.
Chieng said the pioneering initiative, introduced in 2026, reflected Sarawak’s commitment to investing in its younger generation by reducing the financial burden on families and expanding access to tertiary education.
