Please consider those who stay far away from MMU, Melaka. Please be fair to each of the races. If Hari Raya able to holiday for a week, why not Chinese New Year? Come on lah.

I am from Perlis. I could not always go back because of the expensive bus fee and long ride. CNY is the only time I could gather with my family. I spent almost one day go back, another one day come back. You give me 4 days holiday what do u expect?

If have one week holidays is better for all the mmu students. We can find a replacement in regards to our class before or after Chinese new year.

I totally agree with this statement as some of need to book tickets weeks earlier before the holiday starts. It's the season of festivals, sure students wanted to spend more time with the family and friends.

I think should at least 3 to 5 days of holifays excluding saturday and sunday because students from sabah and sarawak cannot get to go back to their hometown. They need to have at least a few days to celebrate with their families.
