Text books nowadays are costing more than it should be especially tertiary education text books. RM75,000 was contributed by Madam Tan Siok Choo to help The Tun Tan Siew Sin Book Loan Scheme. This book scheme is to help students pursue higher education without the burden of expensive text books. Madam Tan is the daughter of the late Tun Tan Siew Sin who is the founder of TAR College and the very first president of the college. The book loan scheme was launched on 10^th August 2009 during TAR College’s 40^th anniversary. There are a total of 503 books of different areas for TAR College students to loan. Madam Tan also presented the books to selected student representatives and advised students to cultivate good reading habits by reading regularly. With the crime rate rising, it is hard to imagine that there is still a kind soul out there. Madam Tan is one person that is not only a kind soul, she is also a good daughter, continuing her father’s legacy of helping people.

Amongst many things that UCSI is known for is their fantastic events that are hard to miss! The Pro Musica was held at their Blue Ocean Strategy Hall on the 24th of August, and man, was it a astounding musical experience! Even honored guest and cultural advisor Datuk Seri Lim Chong Keat said it was the best amongst the 3 concerts held in Malaysia. Imagine talented performers from Malaysia, Belgium, Italy, Thailand, UK and many others combined under the direction of Mr. Ronny Lauwers (a singing coach) and Ms. Loh Siew Tuan (international vocal teacher) to give the crowd an amazing show. The entire production was accompanied with the world renowned Steinway piano, and it was indeed a fantastic night for all!
