green officeMONDAY, 22 JULY – Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS) is ready to implement all values and elements relating to utility savings and electronic waste management in achieving its wish as a model leader in environmental conservation among all higher learning institutions (IPT) in Malaysia. UMS Vice-Chancellor said this today when officiating at the ‘Green Office Awareness’ Campaign organised by the Management Centre of this EcoCampus University.

According to Datuk Harun, UMS’ main aim is to keep the greens based on UMS staff and students’ approach on saving utility at their work place. He added that it should be the university’s responsibility as an IPT to always be the reference centre in increasing educational awareness thus doubling awareness to UMS staff and students including the community on the importance of environmental conservation.

In enjoying the economy’s development, the use of modern technology at the office such as air-conditioners, modern office equipment, and excessive electricity usage are the main contributors to global warming, air and water pollution. Through the Green Office Awareness, it is hoped that UMS staff and students would have a change of attitude that could help in conserving energy at the work place.

“Through this change of attitude, it is hoped that it would help in reducing daily operation costs in energy use in the campus in line with sustainable environment and would be an example towards environment conservation,” he urged.

Thus, he urged all UMS staff and students to renew their commitment in an effort towards sustainable environment and remain as a legacy and for our future generation, thus achieving UMS’ objective to be an EcoCampus.

barisan AJKFRIDAY, 19 JULY – The Senior Deputy Head Librarian Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS), Tuan Hj Zawawi Tiyunin was elected as President of the Management and Professional Non-academic UMS Officers Association (PPUMS) when he garnered the highest votes at the recent Annual General Meeting to elect their Supreme Council members of this EcoCampus University at a leading hotel in Kota Kinabalu.

The election saw the immediate past-President, No’man Hj Ahmad stepping down as his three term expired and made way for Tuan Haji Zawawi assume his duties as the newly-elected President for the 2013/2015 session. The newly-elected committee members consisted of old and new face in the line up, and were given the mandate by the association’s members to hold office for the coming term.

They are the Senior Assistant Registrar at the Registrar Department, Samsuidin Nurdin (Deputy President); Security Division’s Senior Security Officer Sarianshah Shamsudin (Secretary); and Bursary’s Assistant Registrar, Hayati Salleh Baihaki who is also the Assistant Secretary. The post of Bursar is held by the Bursar Department’s Assistant Bursar, Mohd Nazir Manan who retained his said post for the second term.

The UMS Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Datuk Dr. Mohd Harun Abdullah who officiated at the event said that the university supported the activities of PPUMS which he said would give a high impact to the university, community and nation. He also hoped that PPUMS would continue to play its role in being more active and to foster good relations with the surrounding community.

“The strength of an association is not on its supreme leader, or its members. It should be supported with strong financial resources. Programmes which are income generating to the association should be well planned and made into reality,” he urged.

He later presented certificates of appreciation to the previous line-up of PPUMS for the Session 2011/2013, besides breaking fast with the members. - FL
