description Exam certificates are being forged. Pay slips are being forged. Now even some higher education institutes are coming under suspicion and may taint the good name of Malaysian higher education. THIS is the time of the year when students, teachers and parents will be holding their breath in anticipation of public examination results.

The demand has spun a new type of business where you can better your grade or certificate of choice on demand. Digital printing shops and freelance designers are putting their talents to fraudlent use to "upgrade" examination results.
