A scalpel knows not race or religion, says academic

A scalpel in the hands of a doctor does not discriminate, academic Tajuddin Rasdi said in response to Universiti Teknologi Mara’s (UiTM) student representative council’s protest.

The professor of architecture said he was “saddened” to learn that the council is opposed to the proposal to permit non-bumiputera students to enrol in UITM’s cardiothoracic surgery postgraduate programme.
