Some 300 university students have taken to the streets of Kuala Lumpur to demand the abolition of National Higher Education Fund (PTPTN), a national scholarship scheme which they deemed exploitative.

Unlike earlier marches, the police were at hand to ensure smooth traffic flow, instead of cracking down on the protesters and dousing them with chemical-laced water.
Holding up banners that read among others, "Scrap PTPTN" and "We Want Free Education", the students also took a swipe at the alleged lavish lifestyle of the prime minister's wife, Rosmah Mansor.
"Rosmah is rich, people is poor! Umno-BN, capitalist sucks! (bangsat)," they chanted.
