NSTnation UM student group up in arms over residential college being turned into isolation unit.

The union wants to meet UM Vice-Chancellor Datuk Ir. Dr Abdul Rahim Hashim to straighten matters on the issue as well as claims that volunteers assigned for this purpose were treated shabbily and allegedly threatened.

The Tun Ahmad Zaidi Residential College has been identified as the isolation unit to place all returning China national students. “If there is a threat made by anyone from the university administration office against the volunteers for revealing , the student union will lodge a report against them,” said Mohd Akmal Hazieq, adding that lawyers had also offered their services if the situation required it.

“The usual job scope for these student volunteers was to register and present the keys to the international exchange students and this was all done during the last days of the final semester break," he said.
