GAMBANG, 23 March 2023 - The COVID-19 pandemic that hit the world in early 2020 had quite an impact on the country’s higher education.

Organising three Convocation Ceremonies (MKK), Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) in 2022 following the pandemic starting in 2020 made history when 12,124 UMP graduands were celebrated within a year due to no convocation ceremony in 2020 and 2021.
