Meritocracy Re-defined

There is a new definition for the term "meritocracy" in Malaysia and don't anyone bother to look up any Oxford or Webster's dictionary. It ain't there. Cos' it's coined by the so-called "Professor" Hassan Said, Head of Higher Education Department, Ministry of Education, Malaysia. Apparently, his view and definition of "Meritocracy" is also supported by the Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia. From his perception, meritocracy can be achieved under a few different routes of entry into university. Apparently, this Professor of Mathematics feels that the STPM can be compared as equal and identical to Matriculation. Details can be elaborated later. But one can't help but wonder... how can this person be accorded the title of "Professor" when he is not disinterested and his comments non-objective. Perhaps this person ain't a good testimony of "Meritocracy" after all......
