A popular question/comment that were being made by relative, classmates, friends and random individual met in Petrol Kiosk, Post Office or Burger stall was especially a few weeks after the SPM result came out was "Hey, whylah all the JPA/Mara give scholarships to the sons/daughters of overly rich people,the Dato's, the Datins and the Tan Sri? Not fair maa for the poor but clever students who deserve but didin't get it? (which are many, go and ask those students who are currently sitting for STPM and Matriculation) or 'anak pakcik ni dpt 9A SPM jugak tp xdpt pun tawaran ' comments.
Not really sure to answer this, I guess to they (the wealthy ones) do deserve it base on their academic achievements and they are really comfortable using English to converse (which I think is the real high point) but I usually deferred and said "ala, you ask la the JPA/Mara boss, why u ask me one" haha
