G’ day!

     How are things during the Chinese New Year? Best wishes for the festive season to all of you, comrades. Hope it's been an enjoyable and refreshing holiday. Wish our break’s off to a great resumption.💛

     This week’s meeting discussion encompassed mainly on the venue evaluation from the site visit conducted last week. Each bureau presented their updates on this matter. As promised in the last meeting by the sponsorship bureau, we resumed the cake sales this week. Two types of cakes at reasonable prices are to be sold, namely chocolate moist cake and red velvet cake. We hope that by doing so, we get enough fund for the programme which will ultimately be channelled to Pusat Jagaan NURI. As part of the sponsorship bureau, I know it's my responsibility to bear this burden promoting the cakes and for that, I always prayed to God for wisdom, strength, energy and determination. And as usual, I sold the cakes face-to-face. Thanks very much, all of our ‘customers’ who are willing to support us. 💝 My bureau members and I also discussed some other alternative to raise funds which will then be discussed in the next meeting.😄

     Several issues concerning accommodation and transportation had also been raised and we came to the decision of staying in the residential college in order to tighten our belt. We were also informed of the age range of the children in Pusat Jagaan Nuri. As there will be quite a number of changes to the tentative and other plans, we were also required to revise the marketing proposal again. Most importantly, we were relieved to have our official logo finalised and posted on social media, special thanks to Dr Arpah and the multimedia & technical bureau. It means a lot to us and to me, it serves as a reminder of our programme’s mission. We had also finalized the programme T-shirt design and colour. Overall, the meeting went quite well.😆

     Though this preparation phase is going to be a long haul, not to mention time-consuming, we as a team cooperate well to build each other up besides making our utmost endeavour for the programme’s goal to be achieved. Hallelujah! Thank God for all these things. Thinking of the contentment we would like to place in each child in Pusat Jagaan NURI drives away all our stresses and strains. Let’s don’t give up, mates!💪
