KOTA SAMARAHAN: Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (Unimas) students were exposed to the realities of life in a recently held workshop on ‘Getting Ready for the Real World’.
A press release issued yesterday highlighted that the one-day workshop, jointly organised by 360 Studio Worldwide, Kakiseni and Unimas, aimed to educate undergraduates on the challenges faced in the working world.
The Unimas students were thankful for the opportunity to learn in a workshop conducted by established facilitators, including local artiste Megat Shahrizal and local rap star Altimet.
Among the activities conducted were ‘discovering your passion’, ‘pathways to surviving the real world’ and ‘moving out of comfort zone’.
Unimas vice-chancellor Prof Datuk Dr Mohamad Kadim Suaidi also attended the event and spent some moments with the workshop participants, facilitators and crew members.
The programme concluded with a live performance by Altimet at Panggung Gemilang Unimas on the same evening.
This being his first performance in Kuching, Altimet was overwhelmed by the hospitality and support showed by undergraduates at the university.
He was also impressed with Unimas students’ creativity and confidence during the workshop activities.
The workshop was part of the #SamaSama initiative, a brainchild and collective effort of various non-profit organisations to assist, inspire and empower youths of Malaysia.
Unimas is proud to be chosen to host the initiative in Sarawak and is looking forward to collaborate in more #SamaSama youth-empowerment programmes in the future.
