Students dari UITM Arau telah mengambil bahagian dalam program Keselamatan Sukan dan Rekreasi pada 11 Mei 2011. Diorang ni students yang sedang buat degree dalam Marine Technology , jadi aktiviti air ni ‘no hal’ pada diorang…macam itik dengan air aje. Ada beberapa orang students ni memang dah kenal fasi kami masa program Sea Survival dan Renang di Gunung Keriang dulu….

Pensyarah Kanan, Tuan Haji Idrus telah membawa satu beg rebung untuk kami..! Apa lagi!! Caterer  Pakcik Akmar telah memasak Rebung masak Lomak cili padi….adoii terangkat!! Memang rata2 semua orang tambah nasi dua tiga kali!! Tuan Haji Idrus juga membawa 3 beg anak pokok buluh madu, dan telah ditanam berdekatan tasik kecil di chalet. Terima kasih Tuan Haji..semoga pokok2 ini dapat memberi manfaat kepada peserta2 di CSN

Dalam beratus –ratus students IPTA/IPTS yang kami pernah mengajar sebelum ni, memang diorang ni lah yang paling suka menyanyi…nasib baik suara pun sedap..ada yang boleh masuk AF gitu!! Ada aje yang kat depan , sedang berkarok!!
kami tetap boleh berkarok walaupun sejuk dan  basah......!!!
we can sing no matter how cold or wet we are!!
Ketua Fasi kayak kami, Saiful, telah digigit serangga sehingga mukanya bengkak, jadi Zai telah mengambil alih sebagai lead trainer dan ketua ekspidisi  dengan jayanya! Students ni memang dah biasa dengan air, jadi aktiviti capsize dalam tasik CSN dijalankan dengan cepat  dan senang ….bravo students!!
selepas aktiviti capsize..waiting for friends yang masih dalam tasik.....
after the capsize activity - waiting for friends who are still in the lake
Untuk slot persembahan, students disuruh memilih penyanyi dan lagu untuk dipersembahkan dari kumpulan lain…mestilah diorang pilih lagu yang paling susah untuk dinyanyikan oleh student yang mereka rasa tak pandai menyanyi…kelalakar betul tengok persembahan diorang ni!! Tapi best – semua orang sporting dan cuba sedaya upaya untuk memberi persembahan terbaik!!
kelas emergency procedure pada waktu malam.....actually semua dah mengantok tu....
the class at night..yaawwnn...
Yang best kali ni, Cikgu Zuki dan Encik Tarmizi telah berjaya menangkap 8 ekor ikan tongsan semasa memancing di tasik CSN!! Wow!! Besar2 pulak tu ikannya! Diorang dengan bermurah hati telah menderma ikan itu untuk lunch hari terakhir …fasi telah menyediakan ikan bakar dan Cikgu Ashriah telah memasak gulai tempoyak…memang sedap sangat!!

Seronok dengar diorang cakap tidor kat CSN ni selesa berbanding dengan tidor di camp2 lain di mana mereka  terpaksa tidor dalam hutan….ye ke?? Kat camp lain, diorang selalu di denda dan di tengking . Oh tidak!!! Bukan macam tu kat CSN  - kami nak participants sentiasa happy dan membawa pulang kenangan manis  aje !!

Kepada students, kami harap kelas CPR, Rope Rescue dan lain lain berguna untuk career you all di masa depan di Industri Maritim …dan paling mustahak, jangan lupa apa yang you all telah belajar di sini!! Jumpa lagi..!!!

 Yay!! Students from UITM Arau came to CSN to participate in a Sports and Recreation Safety program.   These students were exposed to adventurous activities, as all of them are doing their degree in Marine technology and so they are like fish to water…! Some of these students had undergone a Sea Survival and Swimming program at Gunung Keriang , and they already knew some of the staff of ASAS.

Senior lecturer, Tuan Haji Idrus was kind enough to bring a bag of bamboo shoots which the caterer cooked for lunch – it was delicious!! He also brought 3 bags of bamboo plants which he planted near the small lake to help enhance the landscape of CSN..insyallah it will make CSN more scenic. Thank you Tuan Haji!!!

Among all the programmes we’ve done before, we must say that these marine technology students love singing  the most – thankfully they had good voices too!  Some would have been eligible to take part in Akademi Fantasia!! There was always someone at the front , singing a song for us!

...new faces at akademi fantasia 2012
Our usual kayak lead trainer Saiful was bitten by an insect and his face was swollen, and the training was taken over by Zai who did a fantastic job as trainer and leader of the expedition. The capsize practice at the CSN lake was conducted easily, because most of the participants were confident in the water, so it was a fast and easy exercise for them...bravo students!!

For the group presentation slot, we had other groups choosing the singer and the songs for their opposing groups..of course they chose the most difficult song and the person they thought could not possibly sing to perform…and that was hilarious!! Everyone was sporting enough and tried their best and it was good fun watching them sing!!

Encik Zuki and Encik Tarmizi were so lucky and managed to catch 8 tongsan fish from our lake!! Wow!! And the fish were big! They were generous enough to donate the fish to us , which we promptly had for lunch the next day. The facilitators prepared baked fish and Cikgu Ashriah cooked gulai tempoyak – the lunch was delicious beyond words!!!

students UITM Arau.....
We were so glad to hear that to them, CSN was comfortable compared to other camping sites where they had to sleep in jungles…really??  They were used to being shouted at and punished  by their facilitators at their previous camps – oh no! That is so NOT our way at CSN – we want to ensure that our participants  go home  with only good memories!!

To all the participants - We hope the program’s CPR, Rope Rescue, and other lectures will be helpful in your future careers in the Maritime Industry, and most of all, we hope that you’ll remember what we have taught you…!! See you soon!!

Seronoknya dapat tahu ada group dari Universiti Islam Antarabangsa tajaan Al Bukhary Foundation nak ke CSN untuk program keselamatan!

We all excited sangat pasal ini first time dapat International students – tapi takut jugak diorang tak faham bahasa Melayu, so we all panggil 3 translators, iaitu Fadil, Diyana dan Iskandar . Kami dapat tahu mereka dari  Bangladesh, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Albania , Uzbekistan, Bosnia, Saudi, Yemen, Sri Lanka, Filipina, Kampuchea, Vietnam dan lain2 negara Muslim , dan ini adalah kali pertama CSN dapat participants dari luar negera … YESS..!!! Selain dari international students kami ada juga dua beradik dari Malaysia yang join sekali dalam program ni…
kumpulan tarzan dengan bendera 
yes..the Tarzan group with their flag
Rupanya diorang pun excited macam kami juga and memang penuh semangat nak ambil bahagian dalam akitiviti yang kami telah aturkan untuk diorang.

Pada kami, yang menyayat  hati ialah melihat mereka bersembahyang jemaah bersama2…Students lelaki  bermain bola, playful, pakai seluar paras lutut dll, tapi tak miss solat lansung!! Seronoknya tengok kebesaran Islam dan betapa ramainya umat Islam di seluruh dunia…  Yang selalu laungkan azan ialah Tariq dari Bangladesh dan suaranya sungguh merdu dan menyahat hati….terutama sekali masa azan maghrib, dengan langit diwarnai  dengan kaler2 pink dan maroon dan refleksi atas tasik CSN….sayunya hati! Kecik nya kami di banding dengan         keagungan ciptaan  Allah SWT…

Seperti program lain, highlight program ialah berkayak di Sungai Perak..students ni pun ramai juga yang first time ke Perak..and they all dapat tengok kampung2 kecil di Perak dari angle sungai pulak…kami pun paling suka aktiviti berkayak kerana kecantikan dan ketenangan permandangannya. Bukan hari2 kita dapat melihat kerbau, atau bermain di atas pulau di tengah2 sungai atau mendayung di bawah 3 jambatan!!

games on the little island in the river...

Memang semua students kena sun burn – kalau dah berkayak selama 4 jam, dengan matahari terik, memang itulah akibatnya – kesian students ni, tapi pastinya mereka enjoy sangat2!

Pada malam terakhir, students dari Saudi Arabia dan Vietnam  telah memasak makanan traditional dari negeri masing2 di dapur kecil CSN…Chicken Kabsa dari Saudi Arabia dan popia dari Vietnam. Sedap sangat!! Tapi sayangnya – tak cukup untuk nak tambah 3 and 4 kali….


mmmmm...popia dari vietnam
yummy popia from Vietnam......!!!

kabsah ayam yang sedap giler dari Saudi Arabia
delicious chicken kabsah from Saudi Arabia.....

Pada akhir program, konklusi kami ialah, students dari mana2 negeri di dunia semuanya sama – sentiasa ceria dan bersemangat !


malam terakhir - karaoke dan makanan antarabangsa - best sangat
on the final night - karaoke and international food.....the best!!!
Pada students2 kami dari Al Bukhary Foundation, kami berharap kita dapat bertemu lagi ..samaada di KL atau di CSN…..Jumpa lagi!!

We were so excited to receive our first batch of International students – this time from the International Islamic University who are sponsored by the  Al Bukhary Foundation..

Fearing that some of our facilitators would not be able to communicate in English, we called in Diyana, Fadil and Iskandar to be our translators.  We were told that they would be from many countries such as Bangladesh, Myanmar, Afghanistan, Albania , Uzbekistan, Bosnia, Saudi, Yemen, Sri Lanka, Filipina, Kampuchea, Vietnam and Uzbekistan to name a few and this was something new for us…YESS!!! We also had 2 siblings from Malaysia who joined us too…
As it turned out the students were so enthusiastic and almost as excited as we were!

What really touched me the most was seeing how religious these students were – the boys would be in knee length trousers  all day, playing football and fooling around, but come prayer time, they would not miss the jemaah prayers – it was so nice to see Muslims of different countries praying together…what a beautiful sight Masyallah! The azan was  called by Tariq from Bangladesh and his voice was so beautiful and soulful, especially  before the maghrib prayers when it was beginning to get dark and with the beautiful pink and maroon colours of the sky above the CSN lake….aaahhh – how small we are compared to the beauty of  Allah SWT’s creation..
group cheer...yeehaaa
yess....great group cheer!!!

selepas 4 jam berkayak - letih tapi happy sangat!!
at the end of the 4 hour expedition..tired but happy!!!!!!

As usual the highlight of the programme was when we went  on the kayak trip down Sungai Perak and it was for many of them the first time being in Perak. They could see first hand how Malaysian villages looked like from the river. We have always loved the kayak portion of the program, for the serenity and its beautiful scenery. Its not every day that we get to see buffaloes up close, play games on an island in the middle of the river nor travel under 3 bridges..!!
Most were sun burnt because the trip took a good 4 hours in the hot sun, poor  kids – some were so red! But all in all, we think they had a good time…!

so tired at the second stop...helping to massage each other ...

The  students of Saudi Arabia and Vietnam promised to cook their traditional food for us on the final night and WOW!! They did not disappoint us. They cooked the most delicious food in our little camp kitchen. From Saudi Arabia was Chicken Kabsah and from Vietnam  was spring rolls!! They were both delicious and the only complaint was that there wasn’t enough for third and fourth helpings!!

At the end of the programme we realized that students from anywhere in the world are all the same – just as playful and fun, no matter what country they are from!!

To the students of the Al Bukhary Foundation, we  hope to see you all again soon, whether in KL or CSN…See you soon!!!
