The Unified Examination Certificate was recognised by Sarawak in 2016 for entry to state civil service positions, state-owned colleges and universities and also to qualify for Yayasan Sarawak education loans. (Bernama pic)PETALING JAYA: Unified Examination Certificate (UEC) holders do not need to pass Bahasa Melayu to qualify for Sarawak’s Free Tertiary Education Scheme (FTES), says Sarawak’s deputy minister of education, innovation and talent development Dr Annuar Rapaee.
He said eligibility depended on meeting the academic and programme-specific admission requirements of the four participating institutions – Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak Campus, University of Technology Sarawak (UTS), Curtin University Malaysia and i-CATS University College.
