The team also paid a courtesy visit to H.E Badli Hisham Adam, High Commissioner of Malaysia for Maldives and Sri Lanka in Colombo, who shared his knowledge and experience about both countries’ political, socio-economic and education. He welcomed UTM’s initiatives to promote its programs. He also mentioned several activities conducted by the embassy to promote tourism and continuing education in Malaysia.


It was a meaningful visit with excellent opportunities in exchanging views and exploring potential collaborations in higher education, lifelong learning, talent development, as well as capacity building between Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Maldives.
