"We will not allow prospective student who is a drug user to enter ULM, it could have a negative influence on other 37 thousand ULM students," he said.

Meanwhile, the Governor of South Kalimantan Sahbirin Noor emphasized that the local government is committed to preparing superior quality of human resources without the influence of drugs.
