First day at UiTM

Our first university day was a welcome event ot the International Office.

As we knew the importance of punctuality in Malaysia, we were almost an hour too early. In perfect weather we had to decide to stay outside at 35 ° C or in the air-conditioned room at felt 15°C.
We made the decision to stay outside for 10 minutes followed by a cooling down period on the fly.
At the beginning each of us got a little breakfast containing a croissant, some orange juice and an apple.
Having started, we found out that apart from us four, nine other students were present from Germany. Two guys from our college, three girls and four other guys from southern Germany. So we were the largest group of foreign students.
 

After lectures by Professor Kartini, Madame Azah and Mrs Nordin, there was a brief round of introductions. After two hours we were all so thoroughly frozen that we have a short warm-up interval. Men in suits and women in traditional Muslim clothing were clearly at an advantage here.

After the official welcome, there was a small lunch. As it turned out it was a traditional wedding meal: rice and chicken (what else) in a delicious spicy sauce with carrots. At the conclusion there was made a group photo.

The next day we were invited to a football game.

Jonas and Torben joined the international team. Unfortunately we lost 1:4 even though 90 minute miracle Torben played outstanding. The strikers could not used his precise passes and ran continuously in the offside trap. Jonas played on the right side of defense. By a rude foul he got respect. But which unfortunately also had a penalty results in which the enemy used successfully to 1:3.

 
Afterwards there was a big dinner for all with many Malaysian dishes.
Chicken and beef in several variations. For dessert we had chocolate cake.
Everything was very tasty.
Because we had another appointment, we left early. Nevertheless it was a very nice evening.
