BANJARMASIN – Welcoming the 65th Anniversary on September 21 2023, Lambung Mangkurat University (ULM) held a healthy walk on the ULM campus, Saturday (16/9/2023).

“There are two national figures who were born from ULM. “The two figures are also national heroes, namely Brigadier General H Hasan Basri and Hasanuddin Madjedie,” he said, after laying the first stone. Apart from that, he continued, it is hoped that the groundbreaking and planting of ironwood trees will be a symbol that ULM will continue to grow. “Continue to grow to become the best university in the country in the future,” he said.
Meanwhile, Inspector General Pol Andi hopes that on the 65th ULM Anniversary, this university can become a forum for uniting all elements of society.
“As the Regional Police Chief, I certainly hope that ULM can be part of maintaining a conducive security and social security situation in South Kalimantan, especially facing the 2024 elections,” he said briefly.
In order to welcome the 65th Anniversary of ULM, various competitions were held including table tennis, badminton, mini soccer and tennis court and on this occasion a symbolic presentation of prizes was held to all the winners.
