Has anyone noticed INTI International University’s latest trend?

That’s right; the roads which encircle INTI’s halls of residence are now sprouting fences. The question everyone has been asking? WHY?

Many students have been ranting and raving about the erection of the fences being an uncertain future and a highly probable obstruction to their campus life. With no prior information of the fence until after the erection of the fence, it is no surprise why rumours have been spreading like wildfire.

The infamous fence
Students have been extending numerous blames and demands for clarification on this matter. Comments and views on this issue flood the inbox of INTIMA as well as the INTIMA Online Forum and website. INTI has yet to release an official statement despite construction already beginning on the site.

“I just paid for my room and I like it very much so there is no way AO is going to move me out,” says Ameerudin, a second semester Physiotherapy student who currently resides in Block P.

Another student, Symone Lee mentioned that it will definitely diminish the conducive learning environment INTI has and that students will find it rather difficult to commute around without trudging on restricted areas.

“I am shocked that INTI is willing to do this to us. Our parents have paid thousands of Ringgit and this is what they do to us. Unbelievable!! INTIMA should do something about it” says a student who only wanted to be known as Tung.

In a recent council meeting, the student government had mentioned that they will do their best to ensure that the fence is taken down. INTIMA President Sree Shaarmen stated that the fence “will definitely obstruct the campus life and this would eventually lead to it being diminished.”

According to him, it is like the formation of colonies within INTI itself. Clearly, the students of INTI are extremely dissatisfied with the fence and the lack of clarification about it.
