Speaking to journalists at the government on Thursday, the Prime Minister addressed ongoing scrutiny surrounding their doctoral dissertation. The remarks followed reports that the ISM University had received an official letter from the Office of the Controller of Academic Ethics and Procedures concerning a potential violation related to the dissertation. The Prime Minister stated emphatically that they authored the paper themselves, asserting that the matter should now be considered closed.
They indicated that while academic research can commence, they expressed confidence that any such investigation would conclude favorably. The official defended the process, noting that the dissertation was publicly defended and readily accessible. The Prime Minister acknowledged that if the political stance on the matter were to shift after an eleven-year period, it could regain public interest.
However, they maintained a composed demeanor regarding the academic process. The statement emphasized that even if new research were to be started, the outcome would ultimately resolve the issue. The address served as a direct response to the ethics office communication, reiterating the completion and validity of the original academic work.
