As part of Malakoff Corporation Berhad's (Malakoff) continuous engagement with the local communities, a fun-filled and educational 3-day motivational camp was held from 7 to 9 December 2023 at D'Bemban Camp and Eco Resort in Kulai, Johor. Attended by 140 students and 14 dedicated teachers from Malakoff's seven adopted primary schools in Mukim Serkat, Pontian, the programme was aimed at fostering a love for nature, instilling academic awareness and responsibility and forging stronger bonds among students and teachers.
The participating schools were SK Seri Sinaran Chokoh, SK Andek Mori, SK Permas Kelapa, SK Serkat, SK Sg Durian, SJKC Pei Chiao and SK Sg Boh. On the first day, upon gathering for a briefing and an ice-breaking session, the students were treated to a knowledge workshop where they were enlightened with the acquired skills to enhance good teamwork.
During the camp's second day, the participants were presented with various recreational activities that were aimed to challenge their mental and physical capabilities, starting with a warm-up exercise routine followed by a jungle survival training session, typically designed to equip the participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to survive and thrive in a rainforest environment. After a long first half of the day, the participants were encouraged to showcase their artistic abilities through cultural performances during Malam Kebudayaan.
As the camp came to its closing, the participants were presented with 'Explorace' where their quick-thinking and team cohesion skills were tested. The closing ceremony held after was attended by Tuan Haji Abd Rahman Salleh, Ketua Pegawai Pendidikan Daerah Pontian, Ahmad Shuib Haji Hasnuddin, Ketua Kampung Kg Chokoh and the Headmasters of SK Seri Sinaran Chokoh, SK Serkat, SK Andek Mori, SK Permas Kelapa, and SK Sg Boh.
This initiative is part of Malakoff's Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives, focusing on the Community pillar which aligns with Malakoff's tagline, 'Enhancing Life, Enriching Communities'. Besides enhancing a close working relationship with various stakeholders and the local communities, we hope that initiatives like these will further cultivate the spirit of giving back to the community while fostering a stronger bond between one another.
