Note of Appreciation and Farewell

This is to inform that my tenure as Vice Chancellor will end 7th November 2013. Professor Dr. Mohd Amin Jalaludin of the Medical Faculty has been appointed to replace me.

Please allow me to take this opportunity to express my great happiness and appreciation to all staff and students of UM for the great encouragement and support given to me during my 5-year tenure as VC. The last 5 years has been the most fruitful and enjoyable period of my life where I have been able to do my best for this premier institution of the nation.
