Welcome to IMU lol, "enjoy" ur lovely orientation week

Hey there!

I heard the orientation week is horrible! The seniors ask us to do all sorts of ridiculous activities, from throwing eggs at us to asking us to wet our shirts with smelly liquids. Is it true??

Are there any international students in IMU? especially from which countries???

Well I think that's the enjoyment of being in IMU. At least for the seniors of course

Yup, I even hv a fren from Myanmar as well like you. Australia, Korea, Africa you named it.

ha,i'm july intake 2009 (IMU )o.what is the most interesting club there?
o.o

the most interesting club would be infinity milers, one of the most active ones around. they organize alot of hiking trips, and since there are alot of marathons around, alot of the members tend to sign up for it.

we even have some professors and lecturers from myanmar here
u're doing pms rite?

Are you serious about Burmese lecturers??? lol..are they any good?? i wanna avoid burmese lecturers that's why I plan to go to IMU and i'm also gonna see them in IMU..omg..
yea..PMS of course.. how about u?

btw, IMU mostly got chinese (malaysian) over there is it?? i went there for interview and all i saw was chinese..no malays, indian or any other races.

yeah, we have a few burmese lectures. the notorious pharmacology lecture , Dr.Kyan Aung. alot of complaints about the lecture though.

there are tons of malay and indians around. maybe it was just that day

What notorious about the lecture? Is he like swear all the time?

Haha, no la, he's a nice guy, it's just that nobody can understand a single "sheet" from his lectures xD He's good when teaching in CSU though. I like him teaching in CSU but hell not in Audi

Haha, at least he's a nice guy. Do you mean he bad at pronunciation or the teaching method?

most of the burmeses suck in terms of pronunciation.. they speak wif burmese accents!!! haha.apart from me...lol..cos i have been living in singaore for a long time alr..lol

haha it's ok with the accent at least i can understand them
and the burmese lecturers here are mostly kind and helpful
but i've never been taught by kyan aung though
ya pms too
ya still chinese is the majority here, the malays here are mostly jpa/mara scholars

Do Malaysian Chineses speak in Mandarin or Cantonese when they are together?? lol..Mandarin, at least I can still understand...or do they use English???

many kl chinese speaks cantonese
but most malaysian chinese know how to speak mandarin (if they know chinese la)
but then chinese imu students, especially medical students usually speak english and mandarin

One question, does the student don't like mixing with different race? Like Malay is on group, Chinese one group?

Afraid that it would be harder to make friends.

sadly that's the case in almost every college and university in malaysia

it depends. but from what i've seen, mostly stick to their own race, only a few small groups like a bit mixed up , got one malay pop out, or one two chinese here and there in different race groups.

Ah, I guess it much the same anywhere else. At least there is a few group rather than none at all.

But everyone got no problem having different friend from different race without 'pulau' each other right?
