No Parking at IMU Hilltop Car Park Next Week!

the hill top car park will be closed for upgrade work - for the laying down of a new surface - something students have been asking for for a while now.

We ask for your co-operation in this matter as it'll only be from the 22nd to 30th, in terms of working days. Should you need a place to park, please park at the Bukit Jalil Stadium car park. I think the charge is about RM 2.00.

We apologise for the inconvenience caused, but know that it's being done with students' needs in mind. Thanks!

Warmest Regards,

Amar
