I am an Indonesian student, I came to USIM as a delegate from my campus UII in a event "Pertandingan Penghujahan Mahkamah Syariah Peringkat Kebangsaan 2018". Beautiful campus with many expert lecturers. As guests, we are very grateful to have been welcomed so warmly and kindly. I hope I can continue my studies here.
