I am honoured to be here today and to take part in the MDIS Hostel Ground-breaking Ceremony. MDIS has enjoyed steady growth in its enrolment over the years. I would like to take this moment to acknowledge MDIS’ efforts in providing students with globally recognised qualifications and in setting up a holistic education environment.
This Ground-breaking Ceremony to build an expansion of its premises will result in an integrated hostel and teaching facility. This will allow MDIS to upgrade its infrastructure and provide students with better facilities and a conducive learning environment. This is in tandem with the institute’s aims and bears witness to MDIS’ responsibility to its students’ welfare.
By providing hostel facilities for the international students within the MDIS UniCampus grounds, MDIS hopes to foster a greater sense of “home away from home” leading the students to build an affinity towards the Institute and our nation at large.
This hostel marks a crucial stage in MDIS’ growth and I wish the Institute success in its expansion and future endeavours.
Thank you.
