'Wonder why these institutes with respectable global rankings are not recognised by Singapore.'
MR AMITESH BASU: 'Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's words on emerging technical institutions in China and India and his mention of the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) in a speech ('Cambridge faces stiff competition', Nov 7) make me wonder why these institutes with respectable global rankings do not appear on the list of institutions whose degrees are recognised for registration by the Professional Engineers Board of Singapore. This is despite the fact that several alumni of these institutes are faculty at Singapore's technical institutes. The QS ranking, for example, places the IITs and four leading institutes in China ahead of all but four of the 14 Australian colleges and all but five of 47 British institutions on the Professional Engineers Board's list.'
