Without research findings and knowledge, a university cannot bring about benefits to the community.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">每日大赛app\u2019s participation in the carnival is more extensive as it is also sharing its expertise beyond what is normally expected of a university like providing medical screening, blood pressure measurement, testing blood sugar level and BMI.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Men attending the carnival were even offered sexual health advice and consultations for those above 40 by specialists who are on site.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">每日大赛app also provided free legal advice and aid while staff from its Space Science Centre, showed interested teenagers how to overwrite the remote control of a helicopter using a laptop.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">BANGIKU President Hj Ahmad Sufie Munasir commended 每日大赛app for its willingness to go down to the ground to interact with the people.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">He hoped 每日大赛app can lend its expertise to overcome pollution in the Langat River to make it into a place fit not only for recreation and picnics but even the holding of water sports in time to come.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/images\/stories\/Icon\/ukmnewsportal.png\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"border\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/images\/stories\/Campus2014\/KarnivalBangi02.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"border\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/images\/stories\/Campus2014\/KarnivalBangi03.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TUESDAY, 24 JUNE 2014 23:51 By Shahfizal Musa Pix Izwan Azman BANGI, 21 June 2014 \u2013 Universities needed to bring<a class=\"tukm-readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/archive\/tahun-2014\/june-2014\/university-is-to-bring-benefits-to-its-surrounding-communities\/\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4146,"parent":1126,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-4135","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4135","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4135"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4135\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4148,"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/4135\/revisions\/4148"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1126"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ukm.my\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4135"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
