It feels wise to be here...remember that life is temporary...if you have the opportunity to continue studying, study hard...there are many more out there who want to but can't...this life is just a moment...don't regret it later...work hard, study hard...one day everything will be shown again And questioned...kipidap dongibab...

Parking lots are limited at the area and if there's an available lot, you shall need the parking ticket to park your car as it's a hot area for fining by MBI and police. As of for the university, it's a nice area as it is in the middle of the town so there's a lot of access to mostly everything.

Syaffiq Danial

This is a very good knowledge institute. So many pros you name it, the only cons is that it lacks outdoor sports facility due to being a city typed campus instead, you can still enjoy various indoor sports such as badminton, ping pong, takraw ect. Overall, 9.5/10.

Shafiqah Azelan

More and more buses parked outside RMCP. If you really want to take students, ask them to park the bus inside the university. Since the fasting month until now, because of those buses. Start at 4.30 pm, just want to go back to the clock. …

unikl ipoh got an aesthetic arabic design at their building. since it's located at the center of ipoh city, the traffic quite busy. limited car park inside which reserve for staff, but at the pandemic moment, many parking lot are empty.
