The UKEC hosts three flagship events annually alongside other events throughout the year.
These three events are the Projek Amanat Negara in January, Career Fair in March, and the Malaysian Student Leaders Summit in August. Nation building is the main theme for all theevents, along with commitment towards human capital development and leadership training.
The Outline of MSLS
This summit, now in its sixth year, will serve as an avenue for intellectual and productive dialogue between Malaysian student leaders and prominent national figures from myriad fields. Through MSLS, it is hoped that participants will develop a better understanding of the issues facing our nation, and hence be better prepared to undertake the unique challenges that lie ahead in charting the way forward for Malaysia.
The summit, which will be held for 2 full days, will see the participation of about 650 Malaysian student leaders from various universities across the globe. The summit, entirely free of charge for participants, aims to foster development of our future leaders and provide them with an open, non-partisan avenue for intellectual discourse
