SCI international workcamp day 1(22/11)
We left for Kl at 9am and reached Duta station at 12.30 afternoon. Then, Uncle Stephen came to fetch us. He brought us to eat the Ampang Yongtaufu for lunch haha. Then, we had Cendol at Kak Zak Cendol stall. He claimed that that was the best cendol in KL haha. After that, we followed Uncle Stephen to some shops to take the medals for Ecowalk, and the banner. Then, Uncle Stephen took us back to the campsite. I met the other campers there, they are : William, Aunty Sue, Ezwan, Ho Chih Ming, Edward Chuah, Alex, Thazin (from Myanmar), Huyen and Jimmy (from Vietnam).At night, we introduced ourselves and play some games too.
SCI international workcamp day 2 (23/11)
The activity for second day was visit and working at an organic farm. That was the first time i visit organic farm. We started to work after we were given some briefing. We are required to remove the weeds around the farm. The work was quite tiring for me as the grass was tough and we have to work under hot sun. Then Mr.Yap, the owner of the organic farm treated us organinc lunch. We had organic vegetable soup, stir fried sugar cane flower and bihun for lunch. The meal was simple but i was satisfied with that. I realised that it is not easy to be a farmer and manage an organic farm.
SCI international workcamp day3 (24/11)
Brandon Liu. a people from WWF gave us a talk about conservation of tiger, the endangered species. Brandon said, there were only approximately 500 tigers in Penisular Malaysia now! Among 9 sub-species of tigers, 3 sub-species was extinted! Besides, he told us that we must protect the tigers so that the food chain will not break and thus the balance of ecosystem is concerved. He showed us about a tiger which trapped in a trap set by the hunters. The hunters are really cruel...... After the talk, we had an discussion session. The title was : "Development VS Conservation. How to balance?" The title was very intresting and the discussion session was very benificial to us to enhance our ability in critical thinking. After lunch, Uncle William took us to Sungai Gabai Waterfall with other SCI campers. The waterfall was huge! The water there was cold and the current was powerful. Besides, the rocks were very slippery. I fell down several times when i was walking along the waterfall. I was thrilled and we had an enjoyable times with other SCI campers.
SCI international workcamp day4 (25/11)
Today is the off day of SCI camps. Im quite surprised as there is a off day in camp. Bee Kheng, Jia Ling, Carmen, Yong Zheng, Kok Wei and i decided to go to Midvalley, while the rest decided to go other place to buy some souveniers. We had some lunch at KimGary restaurant after we met Alex at Midvalley. After lunch, we went to watch a 3D movie, Megamind. That was my first time to watch 3D movie and i like the graphic very much!
SCI international workcamp day5 (26/11)
We went to clean the river which was nearby to our campsite. We are required to pick up the garbage around the river. All people are very helpful and coorperative. I was quite happy as i had done a meaningful thing and i had a sense of archivement when the job was done because the difference between before and after cleaning was significant. After lunch, we went to Kajang with Aunty Sue to buy some things. She bought many things at a supermarket such as bread, cereal, cereal to make hampers for this coming Ecowalk
SCI international workcamp day6 (27/11)
For that day, we went for a tree planting activity at SJKT Kajang. The activity was organised by the HANDS (Human And Nature Development Society) and SCI. There are 72 trees in total are planted in this activity. We had some refreshemnt before the activity started. After all the VIP arrived, the chairman of HANDS and SCI gave some speech. Then, each of us took a tree and planted it around the school compound. The activity was very meaningful for me as i had done a small contribution in saving the mother nature. After the tree planting activity, we went back to the campsite and had lunch. After that, we had a evaluation session. In this activity, we were given a chance to express our feelings about this camp. Then we went to play water at Gunung Ruang. We splashed water with each other. Im glad that we can mix together well.
SCI international workcamp day7 (28/11)
Today is the last day of SCI camp. Today we woke up earlier as we have to do some preparation for the Eco Walk. The walk started at 7.30am. We can see greenery along the way and the air was refreshing. But it was very tiring because the road to Gunung Ruang was steep, rocky and muddy. I was leading along the way haha.... Of course, i was the first one who finished the 6KM track. I received a medal and certificate and we took picture together. Then we went back to the campsite and pack up our thing. Uncle Stephen fetch us to the bus station. We went back to Kuala Kangsar reluctantly.....
