8 May 2025 – The Book Launching of 'MISI K2'
Congratulations to our Alumni, Our Pride, Br. Mohd Khafiz Bachok (KENMS 2002), on the launch of his first book 'MISI K2'. A powerful memoir capturing his incredible journey from university life at IIUM to conquering K2, the world’s most dangerous and technical mountain.
The event was held at the Kamal M. Hassan Library, officiated by Prof. Dato' Mohamad Fauzan, Deputy Rector (Student Development & Community Engagement), and attended by fellow IIUM alumni, families, friends, as well as national Everest icons Datuk M. Magendran, Datuk Mohanadas, including our proud alumnus, Br. Aimy Zairin (KENMS 1996).
In a heartfelt decision, Br. Khafiz chose to launch his book at his alma mater, despite being offered the opportunity to do so at the National Library, honouring IIUM as the place where his dreams first took root.
'MISI K2' presents an inspiring narrative of Br. Khafiz’s real-life expedition, revealing the physical, mental, and emotional challenges he faced. More than just a tale of summiting, it stands as a testament to faith, perseverance, and the human spirit.
