STUDENTS from underserved communities will now have greater access to good tertiary education, thanks to the partnership between Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology (TAR UMT) and Radium Development Berhad (Radium).

The MoU, signed on Jan 16, at TAR UMT’s campus in Kuala Lumpur, marked the start of a five-year partnership that sees the KL-based property developer contributing RM500,000 towards the establishment of the TARC-Radium Care Student Loan, which will be managed by the TAR UMT Student Loan Fund committee.
