The government has banned the distribution of 'No Objection Certificates' (NOC) for foreign studies, saying that there is a need to regulate the students going to study in South Korea. The Ministry of Education issued a statement on Tuesday saying that the process of issuing NOC for South Korea has been postponed for the time being.
According to the Ministry, there is a problem that students going to study in South Korea give higher priority to employment and do not continue their studies.
"There is a problem of enrolling in universities with less study time and not continuing their studies in order to earn money," said the statement of the ministry.
According to the ministry, NOC distribution had to be postponed due to the need to regulate the arrangements for going to study in Korea. According to the Ministry of Education, a working group has been formed to regulate and manage it and further decisions will be made based on the recommendations of the working group.
