Surprise!! There were six diploma mills in Singapore!

This blogger is surprised to learn that squeaky clean city state where Burmese youth head for higher education has had diploma mills. Below is extraction from an old news article:

'The American state of Oregon has strict laws regarding the use of academic qualifications, which include requiring that a person’s business cards, CV and letterhead declare if his degree is from an unaccredited university. Oregon’s degree mill watch-list is one of the most comprehensive compiled by a government body in the United States. It has named six institutions in Singapore as offering unaccredited qualifications: Cranston University, Templeton University, Trident University of Technology, Vancouver University Worldwide, Westmore University and Lee Community College.'
