All students, irrespective of race and religion who have secured a place to study for the foundation course in any of the public Universities, including UTAR, are eligible to apply for scholarships from Koon Yew Yin.
The scholarship provided will be sufficient to cover tuition fees and cost of living expenses for the one-year foundation course.
On successful completion of the foundation course, the students will be required to apply for the government PTPTN loan to complete the degree courses chosen by them.
Conditions:
- Scholarships will only be given to needy students whose parents are earning less than RM3,000 per month.
- All applicants must have at least 5 As in their SPM certificates.
- Scholarship recipients after completion of their degree courses are not required to compensate in any way for the financial support received. The only condition is that they will have to promise to help other poor students when they themselves are financially secure and in a position to help the unfortunate and needy.
- All applications should be sent to the address below with appropriate parents’ salary or pay vouchers or other evidence of income as well as offer letters from the universities. For students with parents engaged in self employment, a letter of reference from a school teacher or official on the financial status of the parents will be sufficient.
- The selection criteria is based on applicant’s financial need and not on academic achievement.

Note: I have given more than 250 scholarships to help poor students to complete their tertiary education. The attached photos taken during the recent Chinese New Year celebration, shows some of the graduates who benefitted from my scholarships.
This is how I want to spend my money effectively to create happiness. Just see how happy they all are. When they are happy, I am happy.
Remember, after you have made more money than you really require, you must not forget that you cannot take it away when you die. You must do charity and create happiness which is our ultimate aim in life.
Among these graduates, standing 3rd from the right is Wan Pui Yee with 9A1 and 2A2 in SPM and sitting 3rd from right is Andrew Tan with 10A1 in SPM. Both of them could not get scholarships from the Government. They would have gone to Singapore if I did not offer them my helping hand.
If you know of poor students who need financial help, please tell them to apply.

Good evening, sir/madam. I’m Kesavarttini d/o Subramaniam from Malaysia. I’m done with my first year MBBS at Management & Science University (MSU). My course costs about RM300k but PTPTN only covers RM150k. For the first year, I’m supposed to pay RM30k (sem 1) and RM30k (sem 2). I’ve settled sem1 payment and for the sem 2, ptptn covers RM15k and I need to pay remaining RM15k before first week of April 2016 in order to proceed with my second year of mbbs life. My mother is a single parent and she have to support my sister and brother too. I hope so you can help me as much as you can. Please do help me to make my dream to be a doctor true, sir/madam. Thank you

Amazing! Hats off to you Mr. Koon. I like all your articles and it reveals so much about Malaysia. I look forward to more of your articles and your frank opinion about the “going-on” in this nation.
I pray for your good health and that we will have more people like you rising up in this nation. Only then, true transformation can take place in Malaysia.
i saw the word “irrespective of race and religion”, this Koon Yew Yin is not doing something the Malaysian government is doing man !!
the Malaysian government is headed by our Prime Minister who is suppose to be our leader , we are suppose to look up to him for guidance , now looks like this Koon Yew Yin is not following him !! her scholarship should read ” for bumiputras only ‘! Malaysia boleh ! or should Najib learn from her instead ??? orang Cina jaga orang Cina orang Melayu jaga orang Melayu , leran from Najib man!!
please help and give me chance to study as well .
