Week 5

Monday, 16 March, 2020
E-learning week starts.
Official statement by Dr. Arpah, SE activity community is cancelled. But the course is still running with different approaches.
Task:
1.       Cancellation email to the sponsorship.

            So it's kinda sad that suddenly Malaysia being hit by the COVID-19 outbreak so drastically it even hit UM since we got some cases in some faculties, as a result every hard work we have done for this past weeks is a waste. I don't really know about the others but as a sponsorship, It's really hard to even find one, but then need to cancel all of them because of this. Also Mid Semester Break starting from 23 March, 2020 to 26 April, 2020 (5 weeks) due to covid-19 outbreaks. 



      I just hope everyone take care of themselves, stay hygiene, stay inside their house and stay safe.
     Sincerely,
     Hafeez Fizawan.

SE-cond Meeting

Assalamualaikum and hellooo! Today at 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., is our second meeting for social engagement course. Dr was a little bit late because she had a meeting, so Zamir conducted our meeting while waiting for Dr Arpah. Honestly, before and during the meeting before Dr came, I felt like quite okay because I thought most of bureaus were progressing quite okay though I felt like quite slow including myself. Multimedia had already came out with logo designs, activities had already listed desired activities to be done, sponsorship had already listed out the potential companies; had acquired proposal slides template and official letter template, logistic is still pending because we haven't confirm place yet. And there you go, the crucial thing of the program yet the main issue not yet to be solved. "We haven't confirmed the place we wanted to go for our program." As a secretary, I contacted with chosen school's office (Sekolah Bimbingan Jalinan Kasih-SBJK) and th...

Site Visit to The Beach!

So yeah, as the title says, we went to the beach! (not only to the beach, of course) It was a Sunday morning, 8/3/2020 to be precise, a few of us were "privileged" enough to represent the group to carry out a site visit to Kampung Sungai Sembilang located in Jeram, Selangor. After around an hour drive, we managed not to get lost and reached the village safely. Met the head of the village (ketua kampung) and his secretary, spoke to them, discussed about the details and bla bla bla... you know the rest. Managed to settle stuffs thanks to them super helpful people. Went to scout some homestays afterwards, checked out the beach to see how dirty  clean it is and had a seaside lunch before we returned to UM. It was a pretty chill trip and I think that's about it for the moment, stay tuned for more and  sea yall next time! Thanks and regards, Kok
