On December 13 - 14, 32 administrators from 16 public and private universities in Thailand visited the host institution of SDSN Malaysia and SDSN’s Kuala Lumpur Secretariat office, Sunway University.

This visit was part of “A Sustainable City Experience: Study Tour of Sunway University” - a two-day study tour program co-organized by both SDSN Thailand and SDSN’s Kuala Lumpur Secretariat office.
