Sports Carnival

19th July 2009: This was an eventful day for the residents of Emerald Park because we had our first sports carnival. The event was organised by En. Saiful, En. Mazlan and En. Zafril ; all members of the AJK. Football was the chosen game for this carnival. We started at the crack of dawn with registration of participants at 7.30 am. Broadly, the games were split with the juniors below 12 and the seniors. The juniors fielded 2 teams: EP Juniors and Mustang FC. The seniors, on the other hand fielded a total of 8 teams which were grouped into 2 categories: Group A consisted of Junior FC, Red Kapald, MJ FC, and Singh is King. In the Group B team were: Green Street Home (GSH), Boom Boom Pow, Titans and Bumble Bee. The VIP invited for the occasion is one of our residents, Dato’ Mohid Mohamed (Deputy Head Secretary Ministry of Youth and Sports of Malaysia) and Dato’ Yip Chee Kiong, Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri from N22 Rahang, Negeri Sembilan. The champion among the juniors was Mustang FC whilst the champion among the senior teams was GSH with the runner up being Junior FC. The detailed results of the matches played are displayed below:

Kids’ Study Tour – Fire Escape Workshop & Pusat Sains Negara

30th May 2009: A trip was organised for 31 children and 9 adults to attend the Fire Escape Workshop, a campaign in conjunction with Fire Prevention Council of Malaysia, FIPCOM (NGO of fire preventions councils) and also with BOMBA, in 1 Utama Kuala Lumpur. FIPCOM’s awareness and education programmes mainly focused on children in order to inculcate a fire safety culture in them from a young age through more fun and interactive way. The delegation was led by RT AJK member Azman Omar assisted by other RT AJK members.

They arrived in 1 Utama at 9.30 am and participated in the opening ceremony and followed by workshop. After a great lunch in MacDonald’s, the delegation went to the Pusat Sains Negara (National Science Centre) in Mont Kiara where they had a very informative programme arranged for them. They returned to Emerald Park at 6pm. The success of this trip can be summed in the one question the children had in their minds on their return: “Uncle, uncle.., when is the next trip?”
