(1) Custom Ink

Hello to all. This week we bring you various websites that offers the same thing as we do! -selling custom made t-shirts online. Here is one of them, Custom Ink. Custom Ink was founded in 1999 when three college classmates started this business together (just like we did!). Their business started off slowly and began to grow year by year. Look at where they are now in 2011, not only selling their t-shirts but other custom made products as well. Take a look at some of their products that are available.

 From the main product which is customized t-shirts to sweaters, mugs, hats and even tote bags! Some positive comments about their website are as follows:

• Their website is easy to access, even the URL is easy to remember! which directly leads us to their web page
• They offer various product line which would attract many customers to purchase desired items from them

• Customers can win $100 of their next purchase by submitting their photo with their customized t-shirts

Despite having the upper hand in those areas, their downfalls are:

• As it is mainly located in the U.S and Canada, it makes it less easier for other people around the world to purchase their item without having more information on their shipping method
• Some of the information are located above and below the web page which is difficult for some people to seek for what they want

On that account, we can say that Custom Ink is an effective website to get your own customized t-shirts where a simple and user-friendly web page made for you to order their t-shirts and other product line! We give them:

4/5 for a user-friendly web page
3/5 for their web design

What is your perspective of UiTM Jengka, Pahang?

We have interviewed a few people and asked them their perspective of our campus, UiTM Jengka, Pahang. We had a very cheerful and helpful responds from our respondents. 

Let's see what they had said.

SURIANA BINTI SALAMAN
Librarian

"As a librarian here, I see that most of the students occupy their time in the library in between classes break and during the study week. Most of the students often come here due to the facilities that is being provided for them such as computers, easy access to the Internet, photocopy services and etc. There are also various books and journals that are able to assist the students in their studies. WebOPAC has made it easier for students to search for their desired books. It is much more convenient and efficient for students. Hence, the new library would be opening soon. -much more spacious. In my opinion, this library contributes a lot in the students life in this campus."

SALMAH BINTI OTHMAN
Cleaner

"I’m really grateful that I am working in UiTM. It has provided me as well as others a job. On a good view, most of the students here are friendly. As a cleaner, I see that some of the students have issues with their hygiene. Littering is one of the common problem we cleaners face everyday. It has never been a day without plastic bottles and rubbish in the surrounding or left on benches. Students should know how to keep their surrounding clean as they too are living in it. In my opinion, more dustbins should be provided around the college area and a suggestion for a staff room. -for us to have a proper place to rest and pray in between our working hours."

KAMAL ABDUL SYAFIQ BIN ABD WAHAB
Student, Part 1, BM112

"As a student here, I think that this campus provides a good surrounding for students to earn knowledge and balance it out with other activities. The facilities that has been provided are comfortable to use and complete. Lecturers here on the other hand are ready to help students and give them inspirations to learn new things. Other than that, the students feel safe due to the security service provided. As a guy who love to try and learn something new, I'm happy that UiTM provide a lot of clubs and university activities every week for students to enjoy their campus life. Apart from that, a balance curriculum and co-curriculum activity for student also give a better understanding of campus life. The library really helped me in assisting my studies with the books provided to complete my assignments or to know more information. UiTM also help students with money problem by giving them ‘zakat’ and 'Bantuan Intensif Makanan'. In my opinion, UiTM really helps bumiputera people in many ways and UiTM will always be the best university in Malaysia."

AHMAD ALIFF FADHULULLAH BIN ALWI
Student, Part 2, EC110

"This is my second sem studying here. I've encounter many life and culture experience that actually gave me a different perspective in many ways. Me as  a student here actually enjoyed the ficilities that was provided by the goverment  and also due to the fact that the goverment had a program like the "Mengubah Destinasi Anak Bangsa" which had given me the life time experience to further my studies and the opportunity to play archery too! UiTM Pahang the environment are really peaceful and green(where i could actually see the cows wondering around the campus sometimes.*giggled*) and less distraction from the hectic life in the busy big city."

NUR MAISARAH BINTI MOHD NASRUDDIN and NUR SYAHIRAH BT MOHD AMIN
Student, Part 2, CS110

"Even if this campus is in the rural area, campus life has been different from what we expected it to be. We thought it would be harder to cope with but in the end it was not as difficult as we assumed it to be. UiTM Pahang has provided us  complete facilities of what we need. We have never experienced living in such place -where in the morning we would see mists around! It is beautiful here and it can only be felt by experienced. Despite that, this campus should provide more parking space for the students. There's no point of bringing a car when you're staying in college if you can't bring your own car in the college area. On a brighter note, this campus is a great place to study and meet new people and learn their culture. Where else can you see cows wondering around the campus ground?! It is great to be here."

UiTM Dihatiku

Hello outsiders. Do you know how UiTM Jengka, Pahang or also known as the Kampus Khazanah Alam environment looks like today? Many new developments have occurred since this campus has been established.

This is the new college available for Degree students as well as high achievers and our athletes who represents Malaysia in various sports.

New college needs a new cafeteria. -Seleranika Cafe recently open in the new college area which made it easier for the students to have their daily meal.

How did it all started?

UiTM would not exist without its history. It all started in 1956 when Dato' Onn Jaafar established Dewan Latihan RIDA (RIDA Training Centre) with its objectives of rebuilding the rural society as well as improving its economy. It was officially opened on 14 February 1957. In 1964, Dewan Latihan RIDA held its first convocation and 50 graduates were award certificates by Tun Abdul Razal who was the then Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia.


A few years later, Dewan Latihan RIDA became known as Maktab MARA or MARA College in June 1965 in which MARA stands for "Majlis Amanah Rakyat".


On 14 October 1967 MARA College was officially renamed as Institut Teknologi MARA. The name stood as it is up till 1999. In 1999, Tun Dato' Seri Dr Mahathir Mohamad, then Prime Minister of Malaysia, announced the change in name of ITM to Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM). 


Universiti Teknologi MARA or formally known as UiTM is one of Malaysia's institution of higher learning. It has been in inception since the year 1956 and it is still growing. As we all know, UiTM is committed in helping bumiputera students to achieve the highest scholarly level and prepare them for their careers in various fields.


The university has expanded nationwide with 12 branch campuses, 3 satellite campuses, 9 city campuses and 21 affiliated colleges. The branch campuses are located in every state of Malaysia. Here in Pahang, we have our very own UiTM which is UiTM Jengka, Pahang.


When did UiTM Jengka, Pahang come to existence? The construction started in 1988 and was finally completed in 1992. On the 13th August 1996, the campus was officially declared as another branch of ITM by then Minister of Eduation, Dato' Seri Najib Tun Abdul Razak who now is our Prime Minister of Malaysia. UiTM Pahang has been growing ever since and striving to achieve its goals in the near future.
