I AM among the fortunate few who had a chance to spend my university life at Kolej Kediaman Zaaba, the seventh residential college at Universiti Malaya during the mid-1980s.
We were lucky to have a very outstanding (and I am not overstating here, many of us from the same era will vouch for this) college master in Prof Dr Omar Farouk who created an environment in which young Malaysians could grow, test out our leadership talent and potential, and be at our best. A place where we could transit into being good citizens.
