PAC 2016

It was very heart palpitating because all the candidates there were very excellent in whatever things they ventured in. So far, what I could say is that I just hope for the best.

Held in INTIM, it was located in Kemaman and was by the beach of Monica Bay to be exact. I had tonnes of fun there as well. Accommodation wise and food wise, they were nothing but perfection. It was very comfy to be in an air-conditioned room to ensure that we had a good night sleep before the following activities on the next day.

Long story short, 

I manged to pass the UKJK or the National Physical Fitness Test and endured two days one night of essay writings, group discussion and public speaking session.
At first I was rather unsure of myself as I was skeptical of my BMI. Nevertheless, I kept praying to God and He granted my wish on that very day,

For the essay writings and public speaking, we could not simply be too arrogant yet too humble. I myself tried my best to remain calm and speak coherently to ensure that I did not stammer along the 5-minute period. For the group discussion, just don't be too dominant and overshadow other people's points. The assessors want to see a leader who can listen to others,not simply acting everything on his own. Just "pandai-pandai" on how to actively engage in a group discussion.

Here is my topic for essay and public speaking and group discussion:
Essay BM-Kesan negatif media sosial terhadap rakyat Malaysia
Essay BI-How oil prices affect Malaysian customers?

Public speaking BM- Impak kenaikan kos sara hidup
Public speaking BI- Home cooked food is more hygienic
Group Discussion-Urban Poverty

I enjoyed all of them as I was a debater before and debating will always be my passion for the rest of my life.

You could never underestimate all other candidates as they could speak both Malay and English pretty well.

p/s: from certain source, about 2800 managed to undergo the PAC program. Next stage, only 600 ROUGHLY will be selected for interview stage. Ya-Allah, do give me this very opportunity as I only want to make my parents and myself happy other than for the sake of Allah.
