The government says there is an ‘obvious difference’ in the areas of focus of Universiti Sultan Zainal Abidin and Universiti Malaysia Terengganu.
In a statement, she said these included an “obvious difference” in their primary areas of focus, the streamlining of academic faculties and research institutes, and the readiness of the people of both universities in forming a new identity. “The ministry has considered seriously the views of each member of the university in implementing the merger and has scrutinised the implications if it was continued, especially on the development of the students of both universities,” Noraini said.
