I'm not sure on how much they are getting nowadays but I guessed it would be better than when I was studying in the US in the 80s as the Government have increased their allowance by up to 90% via the last Budget. Anyway, I used to get USD505.00/month and book allowance of about USD500.00/year when I was doing my masters in san diego. San Diego is considered zone A and students in Zone B would get about 15% less. Such allowance barely pay for lodging and food as cost of living was quite high and still is. You see, in the states, they really impose the limit on how many people can stay in an apartment. You can't simply squat. For example, I use to pay about USD500.00/month for rent. This I shared with another Malaysian. So, 50% of the allowance went to rental. This did not include bills for electricity, gas, etc. So, I don't think government is spending lavishly on students under their scholarship programs. Unless your FAMA (Father/Mother) is rich, you tend to make do with what you have to get your degree.

Why not give help to all malaysians irrespective of all religions? Is it not time to help all races and faith to improve in life?
