Visited the University of Malaya

 


One morning, we attended a PPI event at UKM KL. The program ran smoothly and finished around midday. After the event ended, we stood outside wondering what to do next. At first, the plan was simple, just return to Bangi and rest. But, halfway through the UKM, one of my friend gave us an idea to go to UM (University Malaya). It was spontaneous and yet somehow very fitting. For many of us, UM had always been one of our dream universities, a place we had admired from a distance long before coming to Malaysia. So instead of heading home, we took a turn and made our way to the UM campus


We arrived around 3 p.m., and the campus greeted us with a calm and academic atmosphere. The facilities were impressive, modern yet grounded with a sense of history and prestige. During our short visit, we explored several faculties, including Faculty of Engineering, Economics, and others. Each building carried its own character, and it was exciting to imagine what student life would be like there.

We walked around slowly, taking our time to look, compare, and appreciate. Even though we were only visitors, stepping onto the campus gave us a strange sense of connection, as if we were seeing a place we had visualized long before arriving in Malaysia. Before leaving, we made sure to visit the most iconic spot in UM — the “UM 2025” sign located near the main hall. It felt symbolic, not only as a university landmark but also as a reminder of ambition and dreams.

First Impression to UKM

Image
I have came to UKM before decided to pursue my study here and it’s around July 2025. At that time I already received some offer letter from another 2 university in Malaysia. So, before I decided to choose which university that fit to me I came to the 2 university that accepted me and UKM. UKM is the first university that I visited that time and suddenly I fell in love with the campus environment. I feel very comfortable to walk around UKM and I can say the campus environment is really into me.  So, after the first time I came to UKM and I decide to choose this university. Even there is a lot of monkey around here but, it’s not a big problem for me. The campus environment is very calm and green. In another hand UKM located a bit far from central of city. For me, who since born and rise in a big city it has very different condition of the nature. I also love to doing sport such jogging, golf, playing tennis, and some more. This campus provides a healthy environment for people who lov...

Being Part of PPI UKM

Image
  The year 2026 began with a new chapter and a decision that felt both exciting and meaningful. After months of joining events, meeting fellow Indonesians, and forming friendships, I finally chose to take a step further by becoming an official member of PPI UKM.  I applied and was accepted into the Intellectual Division, a branch that focuses on academic programs, knowledge-sharing, and development activities. For me, it was a source of pride, because not only I could contribute something useful, but also because it meant I was becoming more involved in the Indonesian community abroad. Starting the year with this new responsibility made 2026 feel promising. It marked not only the beginning of a new academic life but also the beginning of a journey filled with opportunities, challenges, and stories that would eventually become valuable memories. Joining PPI was more than just an organizational choice, it became a reassuring reminder that even far from Indonesia, we could still ...
