Satu Hari, Satu Malam Bersama Alumni

Bismillah.

Alhamdulillah. Each and all praises goes to ALlah. We've successfully organized a program called Satu Hari, Satu Malam Bersama Alumni.

After the postponement of Hari Keluarga Alumni, we decided to change our way of planning and executing program. It was just a trial actually. The delayed Hari Keluarga had a big committee members (well, quite a numbers) and was under planning for approximately 3 months. But in the end, only 18 members out of hundreds turn out to be the participants!

The idea for our latest program was initiated by Pino. He was inspired by the Multaqa' Alumni Al Azhar program held by Pak Lah (argh, politics...) and forwarded the idea to have the same format of program for Generation 4 members of Alumni IPUKL (I'll write more on this organization later).

3 of us; Pino, Azmeer and me; did the early discussion before joined by Wan Norfaisal. So, the official comittee members were only 4 of us. However, Pino headed us from far (remote control je. Ches!). But to be fair, we were also helped by our wives and few others.


The program finally opened to all Alumni IPUKL's members. The concept was quite unique. We introduced the idea of having 'outstation' participants to be the honored guest of 'local' members. This can fulfill the objective of strengthening ukhuwwah, besides cutting the cost of having the program in resorts etc. I'm so excited to apply the concept in our future program.

About 31 alumni's members joined the program. My highest thanks to them. I'll put pictures and participants list in my next post. Plus, more stories on it. Plus, the lesson I learnt by organizing it and also participated in it.

Again, I thanks all sahabat and sahabiah. I owe you much for coming to the program. Alhamdulillah...
