Campus Election UIA


It is to my disappointment that the campus politics in UIA has become rather unbecoming and has in every way 'blacken and darken' the spirit of the university

Newsletter distributed for sympathy votes and accusing and defaming student bodies has shown to us the characters of our future leaders. Looking back at the establishment of the university, it was built with the spirit, vision and mission of building up a Muslim character in its students( in English, students are university students, which many of us have misunderstood it by defining it to be pupils). Back the election has given us a thorough picture of student bodies claiming to unite for Islam instead has very much went against its principles.

i have to be nothing but honest on this issue. First, let me make my stand clear clear before having faced with unnecessary remarks. My stand is one and only one, for an Islamic state and the unity of the ummah. As far as other prevalent issues are concern, my blog will best define me. But, i am against any student bodies who claims to fight for the unity of the Ummah and welfare of the students, instead has only gave empty sweet promises and delivering them.

The student body, whom have resorted to playing or perhaps maneuvered politics is the most unsettling manner, have on many occasions wrote on Aspirasi and latest PKPIM. i am not a member of PKPIM nor Aspirasi. i deny such affliations vehemently!!!
But, being a student here and having watched these arena, neither of these two groups have defame this particular student body.

I am not here to say that this 'student body" have not creadible leaders. By God, they do and some of them could work well. I have to speak fairly as I am a Muslim first and blogger second. However, attitudes and approaches towards unhealthy poltics should not be the avenue or even a path we students in UIA opt to take.

Ponder upon this, we read and learnt many scholarly articles on being at the very least a Muslim with value. What is the point of winning if we loose our value? is it that worthwhile just for the sake of winning, backbitting, letters of defamation and dirty politics are to inter-twain? perhaps it is to some, but then again it is the fight for students that is important not fighting them!!!
