Mendaki Tertiary Tuition Fee Subsidy

The Tertiary Tuition Fee Subsidy (TTFS) Scheme, introduced in 1991, is an education subsidy for Malay students that covers their tuition fees at local government tertiary institutions. TTFS was established through an annual government grant to MENDAKI.

Since 1 January 2011, students with Malay/Indonesian extract as their first component of a double-barrelled race (i.e., Malay-Indian or Malay-Chinese) are also eligible for the scheme.
