Concern at University of Wales overseas degrees
Click to play
The University of Wales announced it had suspended its involvement with Fazley International College, pending investigation
A Malaysian pop star with a bogus doctorate has been running a college offering University of Wales degree courses, a BBC investigation shows.
A Bangkok college that Thai authorities say has been operating illegally, is also offering courses leading to degrees from the Welsh institution.
Week in Week Out examined the way in which the University of Wales validated courses in overseas institutions.
The university said it was dealing "thoroughly" with the issues raised.
The programme revealed that Fazley Yaakob, who runs the Fazley International College (FICO) in the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur, was claiming to have both a masters and a doctorate in business administration.
But both came from a bogus university.
The pop star, who has four hit albums to his name, claimed the qualifications from the European Business School (Cambridge), an offshoot of the Irish International University, which was exposed as a sham by the BBC in 2008

He said the University of Wales did not ask about his credentials, which were displayed prominently on the college website until he was confronted by BBC Wales' education correspondent Ciaran Jenkins in Kuala Lumpur.
No new admissions
Professor Nigel Palastanga, pro vice chancellor at the University of Wales, said the university was "concerned" about the issues raised in the programme.
"We are not happy about what is happening, we are dealing with it and will deal with it very thoroughly and will learn lessons from what has happened," he said.
The University of Wales announced it had suspended its involvement with Fazley International College, and would take no new admissions to its business administration and MBA courses until the matter had been investigated.
Professor Palastanga said there were no concerns about academic standards at the college.
Meanwhile, Thai authorities said Accademia Italiana, a fashion college offering University of Wales validated courses in Bangkok, Thailand, had been operating illegally.
Dr Sumate Yammoon, Secretary General of the Commission on Higher Education in Thailand, said last week that the matter was in the hands of the police.
However, Professor Palastanga said the situation had now changed.
'Run its course'
"My information is that the college is now operating legally within the Thai system," he said.
Jenny Randerson AM, the Welsh Liberal Democrat education spokesperson, said she believed the University of Wales had now "run its course" and that its remaining accredited institutions in Wales - Swansea Metropolitan University, UWIC, Glyndwr University, Trinity Saint David and University of Wales, Newport - could operate independently.
Universities in Wales are bracing themselves for the outcome of a review into the governance of higher education, ordered by Education Minister Leighton Andrews.
He has now instructed the review to look at the issues raised in the Week In Week Out programme.
Cardiff University left the University of Wales in 2004 while the universities of Bangor, Swansea and Aberystwyth decided to offer their own degrees in 2008.
Severed ties
In November 2008, a BBC Wales Dragon's Eye investigation showed that the University of Wales validated courses run by a controversial bible college in the United States.
The university severed its ties with Trinity College of the Bible in Newburgh, Indiana shortly before the programme was broadcast.
Professor Palastanga said it was "not good" for the university's reputation when things went wrong, however he stressed it worked continually with its partners to uphold standards.
The University of Wales validates courses in more than 100 colleges in more than 40 countries.
There are currently 70,000 students studying for University of Wales degrees worldwide.
The university said the profits from its international validation programmes were invested in Welsh higher education.
Responding to a question from Jenny Randerson AM on the investigation, First Minister Carwyn Jones told the assembly the education minister has already asked the review of HE governance to look into this matter.
"Primarily, it's an issue for the University of Wales and its reputation," Mr Jones told AMs.
"So it's exceptionally important that the University of Wales takes note of the allegations that have been made, and then of course takes steps to ensure that if the allegations are correct, that there is no opportunity for anybody to use the name of the University of Wales in an inappropriate way."

Kaki Lima
Akan Datang Dari Pak Kebun (Terbitan 2011) InsyaAllah....
Signifikan Kaki Lima Dalam Pemuliharaan Bandar
Signifikan Kaki Lima Dalam Pemuliharaan Bandar
Umum mengetahui bahawa kaki lima adalah ruang untuk laluan pejalan kaki. Namun dalam masa yang sama kaki lima turut menyumbang kepada pembentukan elemen ‘imej bandar’ di sebuah kawasan. Menurut Lynch (1960), salah satu elemen yang menyumbang kepada pembentukan imej bandar di sesebuah kawasan ialah ‘path’ (laluan).
Timbul pula persoalan apa peranan antara kaki lima dalam pembentukan imej bandar sesebuah kawasan?
Seperti yang dinyatakan oleh Lynch (1960), laluan adalah satu elemen dalam pembentukan imej bandar. Kaki lima sememangnya tidak dinafikan sebagai satu ‘laluan’ dalam ruang sesebuah bandar. Namun, apa yang lebih menarik ialah kaki lima-kaki lima yang sedia ada terutamanya di rumah-rumah kedai tradisional memiliki corak dan rekabentuk yang menarik.
Maka, kaki lima yang mempunyai corak dan rekabentuk yang menarik tadi secara tidak langsung turut menyumbang kepada pembentukan imej bandar bagi sesebuah kawasan.
Payung...
Gua tau nak berjaya bukan senang
kalau dalm kerja yang macam gua...kita kena ada 'payung'
Gua pernah lalui dan alami bila ada 'payung'
jalan jadi 'besar', poket jadi 'tebal', projek mencurah masuk, peluang menonjolkan diri sangat luas...
Tapi itu dulu..
Sekrang...lain
Berbanding dengan orang lain
Gua takde payung...
Semua gua kena buat sendiri
cuma....gua terfikir
sampai bila gua mampu tempuh semua dengan sendirian begini?
Wallahualam...
Suatu Masa Dahulu...
Betul kata orang masa memang pantas berlalu. Bila gua kenang-kenangkan, gua hari makin tua, kadang kala gua naik panas hati bila gua pegi shopping dan dipelawa dengan ikhlas oleh promoter bahagian rawatan rambut yang mengatakan bahawa rambut gua perlu rawatan sebab dan makin jarang. Gua paham, gua tau setiap orang pasti akan tua.
Dalam masa yang sama setiap orang pasti pernah muda dan gua yakin masa muda tak semua benda yang kita nak akan kita capai...masa dan zaman berbeza. Bagi budak-budak zaman sekarang mgkin diorang idamkan note book, PS 3 atau entah-apa-apa gadjet yang berlambak di pasaran..bagi budak-budak yang minat foto mungkin sebuah kamera DSLR adalah idaman...
Dan gua...
tipikal budak melayu yang membesar di era 1990an di mana ketika itu Yamaha 135 atau lain-lain motor 4 Stroke tidak mengusai jalan. Pada ketika itu raja jalan raya ialah (pada pandangan gua) ialah Yamaha TZM 150 cc. Memang pada masa tu ada RXZ, Panther dan Kawasaki KIPS tapi pada gua semua itu tak boleh 'pukul' TZM
Gua rasa masa tu, tahun 1990 an...harganya dekat 12-13 k . dan bukan semua budak muda mampu pakainya. Kalau mat kilang, hanya level Technician atau supervisor aje yang mampu pakai, stakat QC atau QA gua rasa tak mampu (masa tu gaji keje kilang berapa sangat beb)...
Apa yang gua minat kat TZM ni ialah bentuk dan designnya..sangat sporty..ditambah dengan enjin 150 cc menjadikan penunggangnya berada dalam kelas yang tersendiri. Tambah pulak pakai jaket kulit DELL dan helmet ARAI full face ...aduh...gua terbayang yang gua bawak TZM menyusuri bandar hilir dan lepak-lepak amik angin sambil usya awek indon kat Padang pahlawan...pasti cool....
Berbalik pada kisah Gua dan TZM...
Masa tu gua kerja buruh kedai runcit. Gaji gua RM 750 (banyak beb masa tu.. makan kat rumah, rokok pau tokey, air pau tokey) kira gua dalam kategori mampu nak pakai TZM..Masa tu gua tunggu STPM (dan gua tak letakkan apa-apa harapan dalam STPM)...Gua ingat lagi gua usya kedai tanya pasal TZM. Tokey kedai kata 'lu amik la, bagi ban RM 2500, bulan-bulan RM 300'
Gua memang betul2 betul tertawan
memang nak beli
tambah-tambah duit dah cukup RM 2500...
Tapi apakan daya...
STPM keluar....dan tak sangka gua layak masuk U...
Maka duit utk ban TZM pun lebur buat benda-benda lain
mulai hari itu...harapan gua untuk memiliki sebuah Yamaha TZM 150 cc hancur berderai....
Hari ini,
Setelah hampir 15 tahun gua putus kasih dengan TZM , gua gatal2 masuk dalam mudah.com...
harga TZM memang dah jatuh menjunam.
TZM pun dah tak dikeluarkan lagi. Mungkin dasar kerajaan yang galakkan masyarakat guna motor 4 stroke untuk elakkan kemalangan.Tapi pada gua, kalau pakai 4 stroke pun boleh pecut sampai 160..sama la kalau guna TZM...matlamat kerajaan nak kurangkan kemalangan tak tercapai jugak.
Sekarang, dengan RM 3500 sebuah TZM 2nd hand sudah boleh dimiliki..dan memang celaka..entah kenapa selepas gua tahu harga market TZM pada masa kini, tiba-tiba berahi gua pada TZM tiba-tiba menguasai diri ........
