A group of Universiti Malaya law students handed a memorandum to Pakatan Rakyat members of parliament today to voice their dissatisfaction on academic freedom.

According to Richtuyne Yusoff, the students’ spokesperson, UM’s Students Affairs Division’s decision to disallow former Bar council president and ex-Bersih 2.0 co-chairperson S Ambiga from giving a talk on ‘Public Interest Litigation’ in the university was deemed as suppressing academic freedom.

Job well done, UM law students!
