For the first time in the history of UiTM, the Faculty of Law’s moot team has won the prestigious Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Championship, which was held at national level from 26th to 28th February at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia. Defeating other three universities known for their strength in the field, the team will be representing Malaysia in the same competition at international level in Washington DC, United States of America this 21st March.
