As students who are majoring is teaching English as a second language, with our experiences and prior knowledge, we want to run a service learning that can benefit not only limited to us but also for other people by exposing a variety of activities each session at the Pure Life Society. The major activity that we planned to run is the “Drama, Dances, and Poetry”. We chose to do these activities with them as it could serve as a bridge that will bring the relationship among the kids closer. Plus, these activities can be the stage for us to uncover the unpolished gems among the children in Pure Life Society. We hope that these projects will benefit greatly to the residents in this society.The Drama, Dance & Poetry performances that we are going to administer will involve the children in pure life directly. We planned to ensure that the kids will be learning how to act, dance and express themselves through poetry. Through these activities, we will teach the students on how to convey message using different techniques of acting, the basic moves of traditional dances and to write poetry according to theme. At the end of the day, they will gain knowledge and skills in the performing arts, it will help them present themselves confidently in public and able to opens their eyes to their own potential in the area.

Kampung Belemang is one of the less noticeable rural areas in Johor, located alongside Muar River. The exodus of the youngsters has caused the declination of population of the village to 600 (estimate 70 families). This issue does not just affect this village, but most villages along Muar rivers.Kampung Belemang as well as most riverside village has suffered from inappropriate disposal of garbage that leads to pollutions.

This is an alarming sign that plastic pollution shall be treated seriously. On the other hand, the recycling rate of plastic such as PET in Malaysia is quite low as 16% was recycled in 2019. (The Star, 14 Nov 2019)Not just polluting the environment, plastic will turn into microplastics and become part of the new ―food chain‖. It has been found in the guts of every marine mammal examined in Britain‘s shore, and Scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) also discovered microplastics are indeed contaminating edible plants.

Malaysia has no formal comprehensive sexuality education (CSE) programme despite recording 51 underage pregnancies daily (amounting to more than 18,600 cases per year), without accounting those that go unrecorded. Data from the 2012 Global School-based Student Health Survey, along with the fact that 50.4% of respondents admitted to having sex before the age of 14, is shocking. The country has seen a corresponding increase in baby dumping, unsafe abortions and infanticide. Not even rape victims are protected in the aftermath of their trauma, with many married off to their rapists so the babies they bear may be ‘legitimate’. It is estimated that 39-45% of the fathers to teenage pregnancies are adult males, with 80% of these abusers being someone who was known to the victim and who groomed them for the purpose of sexual abuse, according to a 2015 report from the Royal Malaysian Police. Victims often did not know they’d been wronged. Here are the current statistics around underage sexual activities in Malaysia:1. Under the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017. It is an offence to have sex with teens below the age of 18. In Malaysia 7.3% of the teens have unknowingly committed this offence;2. A study from the National Health and Morbidity Survey (NHMS) revealed that only 12% of respondents said they used condoms. Out of that 7.3 per cent, (21:11) had multiple sexual partners;3. An estimated three million girls aged 15 to 19 undergo unsafe abortions every year. Uncertified, underground, traditional abortions prone to further health risk and excruciating pain. And, worldwide, one in five girls have given birth by the age of 18. It has been reported that in Malaysia, an average of 18,000 teenagers get pregnant each year.Listed are the problems we addressed with the SPOT Programmes since 20151. Underage sexual activities;2. Child grooming (online and offline);3. Child sexual abuse (1 out of 4 girls and 1 out of 6 boys in Malaysia have suffered some form of sexual abuse);4.

Xiao Xin Serdang Old Folks Home is a nursing home which began operation on 2 May 2019, and takes in elderly people who are poor or have been abandoned/neglected by their families. Some of the elderly unfortunately suffer from health diseases such as stroke, Parkinson’s disease, heart disease and skin disease which increases the need for heightened care (long-term medication) and attention. Unfortunately the home is not financially stable and rely solely on donations from the public, as this nursing home is free of charge.Due to the Movement Control Order (MCO) in view of the current COVID-19 pandemic, the funds for the nursing home have largely decreased during this period, according to the operators of the home and regular volunteers at the home. They are finding it hard to sustain financially to afford good care services and provisions for the elderly as well as for their caregivers, and they are constantly reaching out to the public for funds to continue operations.

Our project – WE ARE MALAYSIAN is a supportive project where we desire to support non-Malay students (Chinese and, Indians) and others who studies in both selected schools which are SMK Simpang Renggam and SMK Dato’ Abdul Rahman Andak. This project is to help students to cooperate with each other even they are in different races. The students should challenge themselves to cooperate create harmony with each other in doing activities. Through this project, we attempt to help them by providing the education level on using technology of our country’s future generation. These students will be guided on one of the benefits of technology which is in designing posters and publishing video. Through this, these students could have a platform to shine themselves and build interest in appreciating technologies. It also will give students opportunities to collaborate with their peers resulting in learning from each other in which it will definitely benefit them in future. These factors combined can lead to a positive impact on student learning and motivation.SMK Dato’ Abdul Rahman Andak has over approximately 1380 students and SMK Simpang Renggam has over approximately 1452 students. Our target is to help Form 4 students as these students are still blooming and we understand that to educate, one should start from young.

Reading habit among students is still a major concern as many studies have shown that Malaysians are far from becoming a reading society.  In many schools, especially in the rural areas, there is also a shortage of books for the students to read.  Kuala Pilah District Education Office has identified a few schools which would benefit from having assistance in providing reading projects and reading materials.  Based on the feedback provided by the education office,  project MOLI (Mobile & Mini library for schools) is created. This project is created to provide underprivileged schools with access to reading materials.  Two sets of books will be delivered to two different schools namely SR Kuala Kepis (60 students) and SR Dato Undang Kamat Johol (32 students) in Kuala Pilah district.  Teachers will be informed on the free usage of these books by the students.  Each month, facilitators who are UiTM students will visit the schools to run a one day activity in relation to reading in order to motivate the students to read and at the same time, to ensure that the books provided to the school is fully utilized.  The facilitators will also train the school students to perform MOLI-sketch (a combination of readers theatre and a sketch) for the closing ceremony in November which will be held at UiTM Kuala Pilah Campus.
