AIESEC in Malaysia Awards Night 2015 (AMAN)
TOP GUN (Best Local Committee) AWARD
By Ratana Shangkari Chandran
Semenyih,
Selangor, 11th July 2015- The AIESEC in Malaysia Awards Night 2015 was held at
Country Garden Diamond City in Semenyih, Selangor. The purpose of this event is
to recognize the effort and contribution of the 13 local committees all around
Malaysia (public and private universities with AIESEC student chapters) during
the term of 2014/2015. This year’s awards night was one of memorable one for
AIESEC in Universiti Teknologi Petronas as we bagged the ‘Top Gun’ Award, the
most significant award for the year. This award was very meaningful as it
symbolizes the growth of our local committee and that all the hard work and
effort was recognized in a national level. In short, AIESEC in UTP had reached
the next level as we are known to be the best local committee for the term 2014/2015.
This award was judged based on the
contribution of one entity towards the national level. It is not only based on
the number of outgoing and incoming exchanges we contributed nationally, but
also considering the effort of the entity in terms of enhancing leadership skills
among members to serve the community. Besides creating impact to the society, our
diversity is one of our niches as we provide equal opportunities and platform for
different nationalities to develop themselves.
Eventhough the Executive Board of
term 14/15 are the pioneer leaders to achieve this award, we would not have
some so far without the strong foundation built by the previous leaders of AIESEC
in UTP that allowed the new generation of leaders to build on them and embrace
the challenge to achieve the ultimate goal in national scale. The beauty of
this award is that it resembles vision, passion and action-orientedness of five
generations of AIESEC in UTP leaders whom had a common ambition to make the
society we live in today better and have a bright future.
Besides the support from previous
leaders of AIESEC in UTP, the other factor is the relation between the
organization and the university. We would like to express our gratitude to UTP
management whom has provided us a lot support to carry out our operations and allow
us to create a platform for us to engage with the students. It would be such a
pleasure to have continuous support from the university in future as AIESEC in
UTP will continue to seek for new challenge of becoming the center of youth
development in universities around Perak.
In conclusion, AIESEC in UTP has
been recognized by the national committee for being the highest performing
chapter for term 14/15. It had shown a significant growth of AIESEC in UTP in
this past five years and the growth will not stop here as the new term of
leaders of AIESEC in UTP will be aiming higher to sustain the position and at the
same time maximize the potential of this organization.
