Press Statement by MCA President Datuk Seri Dr. Chua Soi Lek on Tunku Abdul Rahman College
The announcement by the Prime Minister yesterday that the Government now recognizes a total of 74 Diploma and Advanced Diploma certificates of Tunku Abdul Rahman College (TARC), will definitely benefit more people especially the TARC graduates.
The recognition of TARC certificates means that its graduates since the 90s will receive the Public Services Department's recognition and this will pave the road for them to join the civil service.
The announcement is also an acknowledgement to the academic standard of the college which was founded by MCA in 1969.
I would like to express my gratitude to Prime Minister Dato' Sri Mohd Najib Abdul Razak and Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin in their assistance to recognizing the college's certificates.
I would also like to urge TARC graduates to join the public sector especially in the education sector to groom talents for the country.

The work to make TARC a university college is still in progress as there are some technical issues to be resolved but we are confident that the objective will be achieved soon.
Other than that, MCA is currently exploring the feasibility of providing vocational education so that more young people can be trained vocationally to meet the demand of skilled workers in the country.
MCA will continue to grow and prepare more talents for the country in entering the high income nation era.
We will need more multilingual talents as we progress towards a developed nation so that our next generation can be more competitive in the international arena.
MCA will walk the talk to grow talents not only for the Chinese community but also for the country. We do not practice armchair politics but step by step to ensure the opportunity of education to the people.
