CSMU...FILE REOPENED BY ELAN AND TEAM.... Unfortunately, recognition and de-recognition of colleges are UMNO’s way of denying the minority opportunities in education and job opportunities with the government. In 2005, the Malaysian government de-recognised the CSMU ((Crimea State Medical University) medical degree. At the time there were about 1,118 Malaysian students pursuing courses at various levels at the university and they were mostly non-Malays. CSMU is known for its quality education and has thus far produced over 50 000 medical graduates who have found jobs throughout the world. They have met the standards of a medical school with the ratio of one lecturer to 10 students and with first-class faculties and facilities. There was not even a grace period given by the Malaysian government to CSMU then, when Universiti Malaya was given five years notice before the de-recognition of its medical degrees by the United Kingdom General Medical Council in the early 80’s. The de-recognition of CSMU did not reflect well on the Malaysian government, as it affected thousands of Malaysians – mostly non-Malays – studying at this well-established medical university.
