“I’ve always been grateful for the chance I got to study here. I got a government scholarship that was subsidised by them, the state government and my parents as well. They invested around RM200,000 in me to do my Physics degree which I finished in 1982,” Lim said during the signing ceremony at UM today.“I felt very fortunate that so many people were willing to help me with my education with their contributions and have always been very grateful for it.
“So it is now time for me to pay back the goodwill I received and I feel I should give back to society tenfold and as such will donate RM2 million for this cause. I count it an honour to be associated with an institution as esteemed as UM and am excited to see the positive impact the museum will have on the future generations of students,” he added.
The Anatomy Museum was first established in 1964 right after the establishment of the Anatomy Department & Faculty of Medicine in Petaling Jaya in 1962. Over the years, it has undergone multiple upgrades over the years until it was eventually transformed into the Anatomy Resource Centre in 2000.
