IIUM Pagoh, Johor

Assalamualaikum and hello everyone! I'm so sorry that it took me longer than expected to write a post about IIUM Pagoh hahaha!

WHAT IS IT?

First and foremost, IIUM Pagoh is just another branch of IIUM campus just like what they have in Kuantan and Gombak. However, what's so special about IIUM Pagoh is that, ONLY students from Kulliyyah of Languages and Mangement (KLM) will be moving there. Well, what makes us so special that we have the whole IIUM to ourselves? Well, simply because we are the ONLY ONES who do not have our own building. So yeah, Tan sri Muhyiddin Yassin was so nice that he proposed this idea of having IIUM in Pagoh which happens to be his hometown so yeah, that's the short version of the story. Just a brief one just to give uguys an idea about it.

Actually, kat Pagoh ni its going to be an education hub, and that means there will be few other universities/ institution there besides IIUM. Ada UTM, UTHM, Politeknik and IIUM. And we will have to share some facilities like the stadium, swimming pool, library (the main one), surau, court and what else pun I don't remember haha.

INTERESTING FACTS

The most interesting part is that, classes will start on Sunday, instead of Monday like we normally have in KL haha. So, if you are so used to having Saturday and Sunday as your cuti days, looks like you guys will need to adapt to the new schedule hehehe!

Moreover, this education hub is placed in the MIDDLE OF LADANG SAWIT so yeah! Cool aye? And, lagi best, that place is soooo hot that my first impression when I went there was, "I think only cactus can survive here!". Haha it was to that extent! So my advice, please make sure to have sunblock, long sleeve COTTON shirts/clothes, covered shoes, beach hat/umbrella in your stock just to maintain your skin tone colour HAHAHA! You guys might think like, hey kata ladang sawit, kenapa panas pulak?? Well, the ladang sawit is not dalam compound kita tu, but its just nearby. So, dekat KLM building compound tu ada pun yang dah tertanam pokok-pokok kecil je, tak sempat besar lagi because the area is still very new kan. So yeah, the area is still hot!

The distance between kulliyyah and mahallah (hostel) pun I'd say a bit far la. But konon katanya nak buka short cut, but idk. In addition, we will only have TWO CAFES, one at the kulliyyah building, and one at mahallah. However, we can just go to other universities' cafes if we want to I guess.

So that is all for now. Adios!

  2. Assalammualaikik kak, degree duration for ENCOMM ni berapa tahun ye? And mmg IIUM Pagoh ni takde apa apa yg fun ke, sebab dia mmg in the middle of nowhere kan? The reason is sebab saya mmg tak sync dgn university situated in the middle of nowhere ni, to the extent saya harap diorang ban method mcm ni. �� mmg takde entertainment or any shops langsung eh?

    1. Waalaikumussalam. Kalau ikutkan, 4 tahun. Tapi boleh je nak buat 3 tahun setengah. Setakat yang akak tahu, Pagoh memang in a middle of nowhere sbb dia tempat baru nak membangun. Kalau bab entertainment ke, kedai ke...akak x sure sbb akak pun baru sekali pergi sana hihu. Tapi nanti bila semua students dah pindah masuk edu hub tu, banyak la kot kedai buka nanti :)

    1. Waalaikumsalam. Wifi di kuliyyah tak stable, di hostel pun sama. Line kat bilik tingkat bawah (hostel) lagi teruk berbanding bilik2 kat tingkat atas. Tapi mcm sis pakai celcom, so far kat mana2 pun dia okay je. Kalau kat kuliyyah pulak, ada certain places je dpt wifi. mcm kat resource centre, kat lecture theatre, cafe, and certain classroom dpt wifi. Kena look for areas yang laptop/phone you can connect sbb kadang tu member boleh dpt wifi, tp kita punya laptop tak dpt..gitulah keadaannya so far. Telco paling stable pun celcom. Maxis, digi, umobile tak stable. Hope this helps!
