The main purpose of this program was to clean and beautify the Al-Mustaghfirin mosque, apart from giving some donations to the orphanages and the poor people in the area. The program was conducted fully by the students (Attachment A).

The program started by dividing the diploma students into few groups at 8.00am. At 8.30am, the activity started with cleaning and clearing Al-Mustaghfirin mosque and the graveyard nearby. The activity was run by the students with the help of the villagers. The villagers brought the necessary equipment such as grass cutter, brooms and dusters for the cleaning activity. The cleaning activity ended at 12.00pm, followed by the lunch.

Before the Zohor prayer, Imam Muda of UniCITI ALAM, Imam Khalish Najmi bin Kamarul Badri had given a spiritual reminder for about 15 minutes.

            Few obstacles are faced and overcame in this program. They are listed below:

1. The long procedures that taken to get the endorsement for the paperwork of the program.
2. The sponsorship letter that was not able to be supported.
3. Miscommunication between the crews and lack of support for each other.
4. The program’s date was not planned or dealt with all the crews and had affected the progression of each team.

Here are some suggestions for future purpose.

1. The leader needs to check the endorsement of the paperwork frequently.
2. The leader always makes sure the important letter has been included.
3. The leader needs to communicate and plan well with all the crews for the better progression of the program.
