               AZMAN HASHIM BUILDING (AHB) FACILITIES

               Ambank  Group  Chairman  Tan  Sri  Azman  Hashim  personally  funded  the  RM25mil
               building project through the Yayasan Azman Hashim charitable institution to University
               of Malaya (UM). The AHB was built in the car park opposite the Faculty of Business and
               Accountancy for postgraduate students to continue their postgraduate studies. The
               construction of the building started in November 2013 and was completed in April
               2016.

               The design concept was inspired by the principles of Feng Shui philosophy which aims
               to establish a link with the local traditions while projecting the future, with the use of
               the latest technologies. Feng Shui literally means "Wind and Water", in honour of the
               two elements that shape the Earth and determine the healthy characters of a place
               tank to its flowing thru.

               With a built-up area of approximately 79,501 sq ft, AHB can accommodate up to 850
               postgraduate students, and houses a theatre room and a banquet, seminar rooms,
               discussion rooms, a trading lab, a marketing lab, computer labs, a grab and go café,
               a 24-hour wi-fi service and 80 parking bays.
