MUIC’s 38th Anniversary
Bridging Cultures, Building Futures
The slogan for this year’s anniversary celebration, “38 Years of Global Empowerment: Bridging Cultures, Building Futures” suggests that over the course of 38 years, there has been a concerted effort to empower individuals. This empowerment has been achieved through initiatives aimed at bridging cultural divides, fostering understanding, and promoting cooperation among diverse communities. Furthermore, it implies that these efforts have contributed to the creation of opportunities and pathways for individuals to build better futures for themselves and others, ultimately leading to positive societal and global development.
