During the camp’s second day, the participants were presented with various recreational activities that were aimed to challenge their mental and physical capabilities, starting with a warm-up exercise routine followed by a jungle survival training session, typically designed to equip the participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to survive and thrive in a rainforest environment. Additionally, they were also taught the basics of first aid kit application in case of an emergency. After a long first half of the day, came the highlight of Day 2 where participants were encouraged to showcase their artistic abilities through cultural performances during ‘Malam Kebudayaan’.

As the camp came to its closing, the participants were presented with ‘Explorace’ where their quick-thinking and team cohesion skills were tested.

Elaborating further on the Malakoff’s plan to roll-out the Talent Acceleration Programme, Bani added, “We are looking to expand the programme to other universities. We recognise that talent development is an ongoing process and requires significant time and resources, which Malakoff is committed to offer.” For more details on these and other initiatives by Malakoff, please visit www.malakoff.com.my
