“The education and development of our students are of paramount importance to us. I want to address a pressing issue that concerns everyone – the matter of students with suspended statuses.

Approximately 30,000 students currently have their statuses suspended due to financial debts. Therefore, I have decided to forgive the arrears of all these students who have faced suspension due to financial reasons.
