Asssalamualaikum wbrt.

Education is undeniably a critical element in building a nation’s human capital and its role in the progress of the nation and society cannot be emphasized enough. Universiti Teknologi MARA or UiTM aims to deliver outstanding quality education as part of its role in the development of the nation. To achieve this, the university has decided to build a complex called Kompleks Arshad Ayub, to house the existing Arshad Ayub Graduate Business School (AAGBS) and Institute of Continuing Education & Professional Studies (iCEPS). The complex is named after Tun Arshad Ayub, a name that is synonymous to UiTM due to his tremendous contribution in shaping UiTM what it is today.

Kompleks Arshad Ayub will provide a more conducive teaching and learning environment for students and faculty members with its modern architecture, equipment and amenities. The state of the art facilities that mirror current technological advancements are essential in meeting the needs of the new generation. It is an investment that will have a profound impact on the university’s education landscape as it will give rise to higher quality education - a fundamental development driver. The escalating cost of providing better educational facilities has called for the need to raise funds for the development of this complex. We strongly believe that the benefits of the complex far outweigh the cost of the construction of the complex.

Your charitable contribution in the form of wakaf or endowment to ensure the successful development of this complex is greatly needed. With the existence of Kompleks Arshad Ayub, the vision to catapult the university to greater education excellence will be realized much sooner. This complex will be the pulse of UiTM and your charitable contribution to the university for the development of the complex will play a significant role in ensuring a sustainable and quality education.

I would like to thank you in advance for your charitable act.

YBhg. Dato' Seri Syed Zainal Abidin Syed Mohamed Tahir
Chairman, UiTM Board of Directors
