Merbau And Pomegranate Are Among The 15 Species Of Tree Planted To Symbolise The Friendship Between UiTM And The Embassy Of Azerbaijan
Description
UiTM is very pleased to collaborate with the Embassy of the Republic of Azerbaijan in Malaysia under the TREE4FUTURE programme. This initiative aims to create more green spaces to achieve our goal of making UiTM a green campus by 2025.
Merbau, Pomegranate, and Penaga Linin are among the 15 tree species planted. The Merbau, or its scientific name, "Intsia Palembanica' was chosen because of its hardiness and because it is the national tree. The Pomegranate, known by its botanical name 'Punica Granatum', represents the prosperity of Azerbaijani life. Through the friendly cooperation between the UiTM and the Azerbaijani Embassy in Malaysia, the combination of Merbau and Pomegranate became a symbol of the unity of friendship between Azerbaijan and Malaysia.
Therefore, I would like to thank The Honourable Mr. Elnur Mammadov, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Republic of Azerbaijan, and H.E. Ambassador Irfan Davudov for their participation in the TREE4FUTURE event on July 13. We hope that this joint effort will contribute to a more sustainable world. ~RT
MERBAU DAN DELIMA ANTARA 15 SPESIS POKOK YANG DITANAM JADI SIMBOLIK PERSAHABATAN UiTM DAN KEDUTAAN AZERBAIJAN
UiTM amat berbesar hati bekerjasama dengan pihak Kedutaan Azerbaijan di Malaysia dalam program TREE4FUTURE. Inisiatif ini adalah untuk memperbanyakkan kawasan hijau dalam kampus selaras dengan hasrat kita mewujudkan kampus lestari menjelang 2025.
Sejumlah 15 spesis pokok telah ditanam seperti Merabu, Delima and Penaga Lilin. Dengan nama saintifik ‘Intsia palembanica’, Merbau jadi pilihan kerana sifatnya yang tahan lasak selain menjadi dinamakan sebagai pokok kebangsaan. Sementara Delima atau nama botaniya ‘Punica Granatum’ melambangkan kesejahtearan kehidupan Azerbaijan. Sekaligus, kombinasi Merbau dan Delima menjadi simbol perpaduan persahabatan antara Azerbaijan dan Malaysia, menerusi jalinan kerjasama yang terjalin mesra di antara UiTM dan pihak kedutaan Azerbaijan di Malaysia.
Justeru, saya ingin mengucapkan terima kasih kepada Timbalan Menteri Luar Negeri Republik Azerbaijan, Yang Berhormat Tuan Elnur Mammadov, dan Tuan Yang Terutama Duta Irfan Davudov yang hadir bersama dalam majlis TREE4FUTURE pada 13 Julai yang lalu. Semoga inisiatif bersama ini dapat menyumbang ke arah dunia yang lebih lestari. ~RT
