Pengasas MRSM Abdul Wahab Alwi meninggal dunia pada usia 84 tahun awal pagi tadi.
Abdul Wahab Alwi, the founder of Maktab Rendah Sains Mara (MRSM), passed away at the age of 84, according to Ansara, a Union of Former MRSM Students. MRSM, often referred to as 'Bapa MRSM', was responsible for creating opportunities and building educational pathways for Malaysian generations. Despite not having met or known him personally, Ansara believes that all Malaysians are part of the generation that passed through the doors opened by Alwi.
Ansara reported that Abdul Wahab's body was laid to rest at 11 a.m. on Tuesday at Masjid Raja Bendahara Tengku Bandar Shah, Denai Alam, Shah Alam, before being buried at Tanah Perkuburan Islam Elmina. The Union expressed their condolences, hoping Allah grants them strength and acknowledges Abdul Wahab's contributions to religion, nation, and country.
National Chief Secretary Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar also mourned the loss of Abdul Wahab, recognizing him as the most important individual in conceiving the idea and establishing MRSM. He expressed his condolences on Facebook, emphasizing the enduring legacy of Abdul Wahab's contributions to education and shaping Malaysia's future.
