We were also honoured to have Ms. Carolina Londoño Molina, representative from the Embassy of Spain in Malaysia, Mr. Pablo Llamas Fernández, Head of the Aula Cervantes, Kuala Lumpur and Mohd Nizam Bin Ahmad, Dean of UniKL MSI, join us for the closing ceremony, adding a touch of prestige to the occasion.
