A message from Ms Wong!

Dear ALL,

First of all, I on behalf of IMU would to express my deepest regret and apology for posting up of the CGPA of all yr classmates. I'm truly sorry about this. I have informed Ms Jade to remove this part from the hospital name list.

For the hospital attachment, I just want to inform u all that we treat this placement as an important/urgent matter. On our side, we have done the planning, paper work, negotiation since months ago. We shared concerns but the confirmation is not within our control. We required students to be a bit patient and please cooperate with us, and trust that we will do necessary to ensure that placement is fulfilled.

Students also need to understand that with present limitations/constraints, we are not likely to offer the placement sites as students' wishes. We want to make this placement arrangement as smooth as possible within these limitations, so we are happy to consider reasonable suggestions/ideas from students if is within our/university capacity to implement. I understand everyone's situation but Mr Rohit, AAD and I have try our very best to come out with the name list and allocate students normally and preferably to yr hometown. For now, u all need to place learning beyond everything else.

We have actually noted all the possible issues/concerns as it were raised before since your seniors cohort. I believe all your seniors have made necessary accommodation arrangements accordingly. So, my suggestion is for you and peers to find out from seniors how they have done it. We are happy to offer support within our capacity. As for the financial concerns - I guess students need to make necessary arrangement with family. This issue, I’m sorry that I really cannot help.

I treat this attachment as part of students learning (personal development) and a chance for u all to explore other region in Malaysia. Mutually swapping with a valid reason except financial concerns, I generally allowed but not changing to another hospital without swapping, because the number is fixed. So for the letter, remember to pass up to Ms Jade, AAD before this coming Friday noon (12pm) and also pass u and yr friend’s details to Jun Yan/Siao Hui as well. And I urge u everyone to settle the accommodation whenever u can before 5 December (before it’s too late) so that we can proceed with the attachment smoothly. If you have any queries, pls don’t hesitate to ask me.

Thank you.

Regards,

Ms Wong
