Gomen Already Grinding To A Halt : SPM Results Delayed, No Money For Scanner.

Before you read the news, folks say that Universiti Putra Malaysia also has budget to pay salaries of their staff only until August this year.  So far no one knows if the gomen will table a Supplementary Budget for the period after August.  

Here is some news which says that  this year's SPM results will be delayed by two weeks because the Lembaga Peperiksaan has no money to purchase a new OMR scanner to grade the examination papers.


*Mesin semak jawapan rosak, LP tunda umum keputusan SPM 2016*

KUALA LUMPUR: Kerosakan mesin pemprosesan pembaca tanda optik (OMR) dan kekangan kewangan membaik pulih mesin berkenaan, menyebabkan Lembaga Peperiksaan (LP) terpaksa menunda pengumuman analisis keputusan Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) 2016.

Berdasarkan surat pekeliling dikeluarkan bertarikh 12 Februari 2017 yang ditanda tangani Pengarah LP, Datin Nawal Salleh, pengumuman analisis keputusan SPM 2016 yang sepatutnya diadakan pada 2 Mac, terpaksa ditunda kepada 16 Mac ini.


Surat pekeliling yang salinannya turut berikan kepada Ketua Pengarah Pelajaran, Pengarah Peperiksaan dan Pengarah Perancangan Dasar Pendidikan itu menyatakan mesin pemprosesan OMR yang sedang digunakan LP uzur dan rosak sekali gus menuntut untuk diganti.

"Namun LP menghadapi kekangan peruntukan kewangan menggantikan mesin berkenaan dan hanya boleh dibaiki."


Ini menyebabkan tugas berkaitan pemprosesan data tertangguh untuk kerja membaiki mesin berkenaan, " katanya.

Timbalan Menteri Pendidikan, Datuk P Kamalanathan ketika dihubungi berkata, perkara berkenaan perlu disiasat.


My comments :  There is very poor maintenance culture everywhere in Malaysia especially in the gomen.  When the oil price was US70 per barrel or US100 per barrel, they will just call the supplier (possibly a crony) and a new OMR machine would arrive within days, possibly at two times or three times the market price.  Why bother repairing or maintaining it when you can just buy a new machine?


If you are rich,  why bother changing the tyres on your car? Just trade in the car for a new one.  

Now when the oil prices have crashed, so much money has been stolen by MOI and the gomen has no more money, the gomen people are beginning to realise that they do not even know how to change a lightbulb.

The solution? The SPM results will be delayed by two weeks. 
Why not just delay it by an even one month - lagi senang nak kira. 
Tak payah fikir banyak.

The Surat Pekeliling is dated 12hb February 2017?  But the SPM exams were completed last November (??)  

Have the machines been working hard since November 2016 or did the Pengarah woman just turn on the machine in February 2017 and found out that the machines sudah rosak?

Its already happening folks. They will drive their cars until the fuel runs out. Then they will get down from their cars, just stand there and stare, not knowing what else to do.

This is happening already.
