SHAH ALAM – Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) will start sending its students home for Aidilfitri from May 7 to 12, involving more than 16,000 students from all of its campuses.

UiTM’s Deputy Vice-Chancellor’s Office (Student Affairs) said in a statement here today that more than 200 vehicles – ranging from buses, multi-purpose vehicles and cars – will be used to send the students from 30 UiTM campuses to their home towns across the country.

The exodus of the students will be supervised by 700 staff members, with cooperation from its student representative council, college representatives committee and other departments to ensure smooth running of the process and full compliance with standard operating procedures to curb the spread of Covid-19.
