FELDA students receive a briefing about the Houses of Parliament by Lord John Tomlinson before proceeding inside.

This group goes down in the books of history as the first batch ever from FELDA to have such a precious opportunity of life overseas to explore the world during their university days. The FELDA students are sure to gain knowledge, take it back to their constituencies and create wonders for themselves and the next generations to come.

Within the semester the students go through a series of lessons and presentations given to them by top billing companies in the world ranking from Coca-Cola, which is the global leader in the beverage industry, to the largest broadcaster in the world, the British Broadcasting Cooperation (BBC). The lucky group was hosted with special arrangements at the prestigious and famously private Houses of Parliament by Lord John Tomlinson recently.

Bachelor of Arts of Creative Imaging in Digital Photography student Ahmad Aizat said, “The best thing has been having the opportunity to receive responses to the unanswered questions that we often asked ourselves about how the world’s largest companies in the world stay on top.

“We are all amazed by the distance we have travelled since the beginning of our study. I would like to say thank you to the Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, FELDA and Limkokwing University for the generosity that they keep giving to future generations.”

This initiative has become a nation building programme which pulls scholars from the trenches of hopeless rural setups and moulds them into the future’s global leaders as they learn the lessons of this highly competitive world. Limkokwing University has been educating FELDA students since in 2005 providing them with university programmes that are among the worlds most innovative and are designed as a pathway to career success in a high-income industry.
