GOMBAK, 31 May 2023: Ahmad Muntasir bin Aznan who previously contested for Deputy President 1, decided to contest for the IIUMSU President seat and won the post uncontested.

The Chairman of the Election Commission, Nabil Haziq, expressed his acknowledgement of the changes in the dynamics of campus politics in this year’s election.
