Impressive: Aerial view of University College of Technology Sarawak.

GOING into University College of Technology Sarawak (UCTS), one might wonder why the five front buildings were built in such a way that they are slanting forward.

According to its vice chancellor, Prof Datuk Dr Abdul Hakim Juri, the buildings were designed and built purposely in such manner so as to prevent the scotching afternoon heat from going in.
