4.0 CONCLUSION
Our group had done our survey and research for the preferred cafe among UiTM
Tapah’s students and we can conclude that the most preferred cafe among students is
Cafe Beta and Cafe Gamma based on the respond received from students after we
distributed the questionnaire. We got total of 69 respond from student that was selected
randomly.
Firstly, majority of the students chose the cafe because it is near to their college. So
it was easy for them to get foods rather than wasting their time and energy to go to
another cafe that was far from their college.
Secondly, most of the students only spend RM5 per meal to make sure that it doesn’t
exceed their budget. The most popular food is Nasi Campur because they can choose
variety of side dishes according to their appetite so they don’t get bored of having the
same meal over and over again.
Lastly, majority of the respondent were female because they outnumbered the male
students by the ratio of 2:1. In addition, majority of the students are from Faculty of
Accountancy because we distributed the questionnaire at PTAR that was located in the
center of campus and it was near to the faculty of Accountancy.
