In general, out of 30 students in a class for example, there is for sure that 70% of the
students are from female and the rest are male, even sometime there is none of them. In a
cynical tone and naughty of some female in a class will answer that male is more focus in
rehabilitation centers. Is that is really the answer? Maybe there is some truth of that
because the majority of them are really in there. Actually there are more than that. Male
learning method is actually more to hands on and not always reading and answers a paper.
Since school, they have been teach to study for their exam while read and memorize does
not really suite them. Then, after 4 years in university, in many cases, what they have been
learning does not help any of their choice and in their carrier development. Therefore,
more and more male will find other way that is continuing their study in other institute
such as industrial training institute (ILP), polytechnic and many others. It is supported by
facts that the numbers of male student who are following vocational and technical in
polytechnic in there represent 60% of them. In aware of this situation, the government has
introduced a lot of institutions like this to meet the needs of male students. This is certainly
far difference to female because they are more tend to reading and memorize all the facts
and theories that contain in books. The real facts nowadays this method would not help
students to apply what have they study to their job. There is true that male not like to just
sit and do nothing for example, reading. If we say examination in IPT is conduct in physical
way and not writing, we are sure that a lot of male students will graduate with successful.
When the issue of lack of male students in public higher education institutions (IPTA) was
raised once again by the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Education Sultan Idris (UPSI),
Assoc. Dr. Aminah Ayob widening gap was already expected because over the last five years
(since 2003), the dominance of female students in universities are already significant. This
phenomena need to be addressed by finding other factors that contributed to this
phenomena. From past to nowadays, there is no doubt that female are more systematic and
diligent in making something. This is maybe their natural dispositions that have beengranted while male, not many are like that. Consciously or not, our national education
system more celebrates those who work hard or in other words, neat to memorize, parsing,
etc which is in female side and indirectly close male opportunity to show their
performance. According to Dr. Aminah Ayob, the ministry of education has to change the
learning technique to more empowering students to study and think.

We do not have to depend on the shape of the examination system but change it from
memorize techniques to sharpen the mind and thought.
''If the lack of male students in IPTA is not addressed, there will be huge imbalances that
lead to participation by them in professional fields does not stand out, "she said.
Not only because male are more in technical and vocational studies that lead to least in
public higher education institution, as we know, Admission to universities is determined by
academic qualifications. Academic results for male normally not as satisfied as female students; this is
related to our national education system which more emphasize with examination results. As we
mention above, female students are more hard in memorize, reading and study more than male
students, so there is no surprise that examination results for female are better than male students.
Therefore, in public examination results such as Certificate of Education Malaysia (SPM) or Malaysian
Higher School Certificate (STPM) is brighter among female students. Therefore, with good results, they
easily get enter higher education institution compared to male students with unsatisfied examination
results.
