SRCUTP 2010/2011 : Reaching Communities

Salamunalaikum,


Alhamdulillah, together we praised to Allah, for His Greatest of giving us the chance to live up our day. After 3 days of final discussion, now MPPUTP 2010/2011, is ready in making up the changes at UTP.

"REACHING COMMUNITIES"

 

Current HiCom and Exco : Some of the Hicoms and excos are not around




A little bit regarding the new tag line of current MPPUTP. "Reaching Communities" is agreed by us in giving the overview about the way that is chose by MPPUTP for this tenure. On behalf of us, we are going to give our best effort in being near to all of the communities at UTP. We hope that we could do our best in enhancing the unity among us, to bring up the student's right and to prepare the best platform for all of us to perform as a good and great "mahasiswa" that could be the role models to others.

But, this is not easy to do. To talk is easy, but to walk it out is hard. We hope that all of the UTP communities will always be with us in every single thing that we do especially in those activities that are held for empowering us. You are the one who is actually being the best indicator of this tenure, either a success or a failure.

Brothers and sisters,

Let us make it together. Let us shift our paradigm to a higher level. We, the MPPUTP, couldn't do much unless all of us unite. Your trust and your supports are the things that we are looking for. Be with us, be our check and balance agents and do support us. We are not fight for our own benefits, but we are fight for all of us. To voice out our rights.

~Shift our paradigm~

Thanks a lot. Keep up your support to me and my colleagues. Together, we shift to the highest paradigm...

Wassalam...

To All My Supporters

Assalamualaikum,

Less than 24 hours from now, a new line up of MPPUTP will be officially announced. I believe that the election committee is now in hectic to make the last preparation for tomorrow. A little bit of nervous comes disturbing me, but I know, that all the UTPians are brilliant enough, to make the wise decision in voting for their future leaders. Whatever it is, vote for the right candidate. Vote for their capability not for their popularity.

Since the first time I met all the candidates during the nomination day, I noticed that they are all capable and having a good charismatic in being such a good leader. The confidence that are shown by them, somehow telling me that this time, I have to struggle if I want to win this election. Many of them had experienced working in previous line up of MPP UTP. So, why should you vote for me as I have no experience in MPP UTP? Your vote is important as it would give MPP UTP, an agent for check and balance that would lead to drive up MPP in different way. Maybe I have no experience in MPP UTP. But, experience that I gained since my secondary school until in UTP with RCSU is going to be my precious asset. The leadership skills in joining RCSU can be implemented in MPP UTP if I am given the mandate by you. Leadership is an action, so it requires skills. Leadership is not the thing that makes you rigid with certain group of people and certain area of working, but it makes you brilliantly deal with various types of people and different type of problems.

Some of my colleagues even ask me, what did make you difference from the rest? It is quite hard to answer it but believe in me, my dearest brothers and sisters. I experienced working in RCSU starting from the bottom level and I can gain the trust from them until I was being voted as the President. Experience is something that we cannot gain in the class. Furthermore, undergoing internship at Ethylene Polyethylene Malaysia Sdn Bhd is really taught me the meaning of life. Here, I am appointed as the leader for the trainees. The responsibility in being the leader is not only for managing the UTP trainees, but also to manage the trainees from INSTEP and also some others IPTA such as UiTM, UMP and Politeknik Sultan Mizan. Working with many types of people, teach me indirectly steps in becoming a good leader.

Dear brothers and sister,

                

               Let us do our responsibility as UTPian. It is all up to you now. You are the one who is going to decide your next leader. Think wisely and vote carefully. Don’t forget, vote for the right candidate and don’t forget, vote for me, candidate no 6.

Where Are Our Rights?

Assalamualaikum. In this post, I want to arise one issue that has not been solved for a long time in our campus; the student rights. Recently, I had a conversation with the ex-President of MPPUTP, Mr. Hanif Humam, and we had a short discussion about students' rights and their awareness.

 

If we observe the sports facilities around our campus, for example the basketball court. The basketball rings broke and nobody comes and fix them for nearly 1 year, although the students have worked so hard to uphold our campus's name by winning various tournaments and competitions in various sports categories. Furthermore, all of the facilities are included in our facilities fees. So, where do the money go?

If we view from the academic side, the situation is also the same. In lecture halls, for example. There are many broken chairs that have not being fixed since I entered this campus as a Foundation student! Sometimes there are adjunct lectures organized and some student do not have seats because the seats are broken. As a result, the students cannot study in conducive manner. So, I ask you again, where are our rights?

Ignorance is also an issue that lingers among UTP students for a long time. For example, not many students know about the Manifesto Night which being held last Saturday (2/10/2010). Why? The main reason is because the announcement was not well-spread and the information is not centralized from one main resource. As a result of that, it is difficult for students to get up-to-date information of what's going on around the campus.

To counter this problem, UTP management should allocate a 'student centre', a place where every student can come to get up-to-date information about activities around UTP whether it is academic or non-academic matters. The centre can also be a place where students can voice out their problems to MPPUTP. If UTP can build a centre for Postgraduate students, so why not for the Undergraduate students.

These matters must be treated seriously as they involved the denial of students' rights. The new line-up of MPPUTP must raise these matters to the UTP managements to be discussed in order to solve it. So, vote me, Hamzah bin Nawawi, candidate number 6 and I can assure you that I will try my best to solve them for the sake of us.

Hamzah Nawawi : Candidate #6 Manifesto Video

Dear friends, Alhamdulillah I have uploaded a short video introducing myself and my manifesto. Feel free to watch it and don't to vote me, candidate number 6 on this Thursday (7/10/2010).

Let's feel the thrill of CAMPUS ELECTION~ You may change it!

VOTE #6

Campaign Begins

I started my campaign yesterday. Alhamdulillah, the feedback was good and  I had a great opportunity to meet many students to introduce myself and my manifesto. I started my campaign at 12.00 noon at V5 cafeteria. Accompanied by my fan club members, I delivered my speech.

Finished campaigning at V5, I head to V2 cafe. There were some groups of students having their lunch. I  took this opportunity to greet them and introduced myself. Many of them already noticed that I was a candidate for this coming election, thanks to my fan club who do their best to promote me.

Next, I continued my campaign session to the Village 1. Arrived at about 1.20 p.m., there were a lot of student having their lunch there. I took this chance to introduce myself to them. I greeted Pak Ali and introduced myself to him before I proceed to my speech.

Later, I continued my campaign to my last destination, V6 cafe. There were lesser crowd having their lunch there as the clock showed 2.00 p.m. I approached them with smile and introduced myself to them.


Culture Is Not A boundary



During this campaign, I try to make myself well-known, not only to Malay students, but also other races. I want to show to them that race is not a boundary for us to get to know each other and to care for each other. For me, the differences is something that have to share because every person has their own uniqueness.

In my speeches, I reminded the students to turn up on the election day on the election day this Thursday, 7th October. This is their only opportunity to choose their true leaders which have the real credibility to lead, as this is one of responsibility of a student toward the campus and also to make sure the welfare of the students being taken care of. So, vote for me, Hamzah bin Nawawi, candidate number 6. I promise to voice out everything about the student's welfare and I can assure you that you will not regret voting me.

The 1st Step Toward Improvement

The Manifesto Night went smoothly without any problem. Thanks to the committee who had work so hard to organize the event. Alhamdulillah, all of the 7 candidates presented their manifesto very well, in brilliant manner.

General Constituency candidates

Rebranding MPPUTP

I am not writing this post to tell you about the event itself, but I am here to share with you about what my motto, "Rebranding MPPUTP" is all about. The rebranding is all about improving the MPPUTP to become an approachable organization in order to solve issues and problems that lingered among us without any real solution.

Based on 4 years of spending my life in our campus, I have observed that the unity among the students that come from various races has been an unsolved issue for a very long time. It is so obvious that they are not blending with each other very well. To make the problem worse, there are events that being conquered by certain races. For example, Convofair is conquered by Malay student, EDX is conquered by Chinese student and also for ISC events, which being participated by majority international students. This is a really unhealthy situation because if there is any issue that touches the sensitivity of a race spreads, a catastrophic problem of student unity will occur.

The Solutions

Therefore, here I am to suggest some solutions regarding to this matter. My vision is to make the MPPUTP becoming more approachable. Instead of the students seek MPPUTP to solve problem, the MPPUTP comes to them. The MPPUTP will organize a sharing session with students for them to share problems that they observe in UTP. This step is relevant as the MPPUTP is an organization which to voice out the problems around the campus on behalf of students to the management of UTP. 

As for the unity problems, MPPUTP should organize interracial dialogue between different races representative and MPPUTP. The objective this 2-ways dialogue is to know what are the main problems that prevent the unity between the races. The quota system should also be applied in organizing events. The quota system is to ensure every race can get the same opportunity to participate in events as committees. In order for them to mix around well, they must work together and share the happiness and problem together in organizing events like pepatah Melayu said, ringan sama dipikul, berat sama dijinjing.

What's next?

For me, the Manifesto Night is only the beginning of battle to gain trust and support from my UTP friends. No matter how good my manifesto, if I don't have your support, our dream to rebrand MPPUTP and to unite our friends will be always a dream. So, think and choose wisely, who is the most worthy to become the next MPPUTP leader. As a conclusion, I want to share to you a German idiom, Unser Leben ist voll mit Herausforderungen. So muessen wir ueberleben. In English in means, there are so many problems and challenges in our life, but the life goes on. In order to face the challenges, a brilliant leader is needed and that is our responsibility as a student for our beloved campus. Vote for me, Hamzah bin Nawawi, candidate number 6.

Manifesto Night

Time to make it real

Alhamdulillah. After days of training, the manifesto night is finally here. As all of you aware, I am the candidate number 6. As for tonight, I will be presenting some of the study cases that I have done regarding to the problems which the previous MPPUTP had faced and how I will counter these kind of problems when I get the position as the member of High Committee of MPPUTP.

The details of the Manifesto Night as shown below :

• Venue : Chancellor Hall
• Time   : 2000 - 0000
• Date   : 2 October 2010

To all my friends, thank you for your support. This is our first step to revolutionize the MPPUTP and make our dreams come true, InsyaAllah.

Hamzah bin Nawawi : Vote For Your Future Leader
