Abstract
WAY back in 2019, Prof Datuk Dr Ahmad Murad Merican had proposed that Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM), Malaysia’s largest institution of higher learning, be renamed Arshad Ayub University. Tun Arshad Ayub (pix) died on Tuesday at the age of 93.
The proposal did not gather momentum since then as the nation was engulfed in more pressing issues such as the change of government following the so-called Sheraton Move and the Covid-19 pandemic.
The late Arshad had served the nation in numerous positions during his lifetime, but the most fitting tribute to this towering Malaysian is Prof Emeritus Dr Shad Saleem Faruqi’s description of the man as “the greatest educational innovator and administrator, and social engineer this country has known”.
