PUTRAJAYA, 29 March 2023 - A total of six proteges of Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) successfully completed the Perdana Protege UMP Fellowship programme after serving for six months to the management of the university including the Chairman of the UMP Board of Directors, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Abdul Aziz Abdul Rahman and UMP Vice-Chancellor, Professor Dato’ Ts.

They were celebrated at the UMP Protege Appreciation Ceremony for the UMP Perdana Fellows programme that ends on 31 March 2023.
