A Ho Chi Minh
City-based technical junior college will likely be banned from enrolling
students for the forthcoming school year starting in September, following its
president’s various wrongdoings.
The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training will ask the
Ministry of Education and Training to forbid Saigon College of Economics and
Technology (SAIMETE) from recruiting new enrollees until it manages to rectify
the wrongdoings, improve its teaching facilities, consolidate administration,
and ensure adequate interests for students, department director Pham Ngoc Thanh
told local media Tuesday.
The president, Pham Pho, was earlier found opening unaccredited courses
without consulting the management board, setting up new branches without
permission, over-enrolling students, and appointing unqualified personnel.
Specifically, many accused Pho had the school enroll more than twice
the number of students allowed by the education ministry in 2008.
For several years, he has let SAIMETE offer unlicensed classes on
information technology, environment, hospitality, and finance and banking.
What’s more, many SAIMETE administrators had accused Pho of other
misconduct, which was later confirmed by local authorities, related to the
organization of the school’s management board, its joint programs, and the
construction of a facility in Thu Duc District.
He is also suspected of faking thousands of English certificates
usually conferred by the education ministry and selling them to students.
