Dear Editor
It has been two months since Villa Foundation stopped paying stipends to their scholars in Malaysia, without proper notification.
When students place requests to Villa Foundation for stipends, they (Villa Foundation) replies that they are in a financial crisis and advise students to seek alternative means to meet expenses for undefined period.
The first indicator letter students received from Villa Chairman during the peak recession period in the first quarter of 2009 says that Villa Foundation will find ways of giving stipends to students who are in middle of their studies, even after selling his properties. The writer, feel that the time has come, to sell properties.
Villa Foundation has suspended stipends of their scholars silently, without officially making a public an announcement.
