On 27 October 2023, Malakoff Corporation Berhad (“Malakoff”)’s Tanjung Bin power Plant (“TBPP”) had collaborated with Malaysia Civil Defense Department and Pontian Traffic Police to organise an ‘OctobeRUN 2023’ in conjunction with TBPP’s 17th anniversary.

The event, held at Tanjung Bin Complex's Alpha Gate, aimed to raise awareness about the importance of maintaining good physical and mental health while fostering camaraderie among staff. Close to 140 participants, including TBPP and TBE staff, community members of Mukim Serkat as well as their in-house contractors, attended the event.

The event kicked off with a warm-up session, and the official start was led by the Plant Manager of TBPP Encik Saiful Ahmad. Participants then sprinted from the starting line through the running route, concluding at Tanjung Bin Complex.

Recognising the achievements of the top three male runners, Muhammad Harussani Ismail clinched the first position, followed by Mazrim Mashar in second place, and Wan Mohd Izzuddin Wan Hamad in third. In the female category, Nabila Ain Ahmad claimed the first spot, with Nurisma Md Omar securing second place and Nurul Afzainizah coming in third. As a token of appreciation for their efforts, a breakfast spread was organized for the staff, providing an opportunity to strengthen their professional connections.

Overall, OctobeRUN was a resounding success, and we express our gratitude for the collective effort of everyone involved. It was truly uplifting to witness each participant showcasing not only their competitive edge but also embodying a strong spirit of sportsmanship. We appreciate the enthusiasm and dedication that contributed to making the event a memorable and successful occasion.

The OctobeRUN event is part of Malakoff’s commitments towards the UN SDG Goal No. 3 where we promote healthy lifestyles and provide preventive measure and efficient healthcare for our staff and the community. We would like to thank everyone for their participation, and we hope to see you again next year!
