Our project is called ‘Wave of Change Project’. This project is about our group of 14 people going to Bagan Lalang beach and clean the area from trash and make sure the environment is in a great condition. There are 3 stages in this project which are the planning/preparation before project day, during the project day and after the project finished. 


Planning/preparation stage 

          Before we decided to do the ‘Wave of Change Project’, we were actually considering other project like going to secondary school in KL area to held event about civil engineering with the main focus was to give exposure to the secondary school student about the civil engineering field. But after further discussion with all the other group members, we decided to proceed with the the ‘Wave of Change Project’, which basically about us going to Bagan Lalang beach and clean the area. So to continue the project, we discuss about many things like the budget, because we need to buy some equipment for cleaning, Firdaus, Janting and Faiz were tasked to buy equipments like plastic bags, gloves and they also buy mineral water for all the group members. We also allocate some money as the fuel cost as we go there with 3 cars that were drove by Linggesh, Jinn Renn and Darwish. After that, we also discuss the tentative on the project day in order to make everything goes smoothly. 


Project Day

          Its 7.30 am and some of our group members were already here. The gathering time was 8 am and the plan was to immediately depart as soon as everyone was there. But some of us was a bit late, resulting in a bit of delay in our tentative. Luckily, everyone gathered safely and we departed around 8.30 in the morning. It took us around one and a half hour to arrive at Bagan Lalang beach and we were a bit confused about where the rendezvous point as we haven’t decided on it yet. But eventually we managed to gather and after a short briefing, we started to clean the beach.

          As for our project requirements, we did an interview with several beach visitors who went there with their family to have a good leisure time. We asked about the beach and condition and how were their experience there. The purpose of this interview was to give us a clearer image about how was the beach condition and we also know how our project impacted the beach condition and all the community there. We were welcomed warmly as we wanted to make sure that the beach is clean and this also make the visitors feel more happy and comfortable. 

          Next, we recycle the trashes that we have collected by putting them in the recycle bin. But before that, we sort all of the trashes into different categories as the recycle bin require. 

          After that, we went to a small musolla to clean there as well. So we go there and began cleaning by sweeping the floor, wipe the window, fold all the unorganized sejadah. We also tidy up the book on the shelves by arranging them.

          After finished all that, we had lunch together and before going back to UM after a long day.



After the project day

          Our beach cleaning initiative served as a compelling illustration of how each person possesses the ability to bring about significant change. It imparted the lesson that even modest actions, carried out with purpose and unity, can yield a profound influence. By embracing diversity, honoring differing perspectives, and collaborating towards a common objective, we established environments that nurtured a sense of belonging, tranquility, and concord. We witnessed the transformative power of our collective endeavors, encompassing beach cleaning, community engagement, and tidying the prayer room. Through this project, we comprehended that by uniting with a shared mission, we can transcend personal limitations and generate a positive impact within our communities and within ourselves. It served as a reminder that every individual possesses the capacity to contribute towards a better future, and by nurturing this potential, we can inspire others to join us on the journey towards a more inclusive and sustainable world.

  PLANNING PHASE Our team had organised multiple meeting sessions during the planning stage to carefully plan out our project. We emphasised the importance of carefully distributing the tasks and responsibilities of each member so that our project remains organised so that it can be run smoothly without having any disruptions or interference. Firdaus was elected as our group leader and he was in charge of ensuring the group members work together as a whole unit. After some precise analysis and evaluation, we have narrowed down our project choices to two community service events, “Imagineers Society” and “Wave of Change”. After conducting extensive research and carefully weighing all aspects, our team has made the choice to embark on the "Wave of Change" project as our community service initiative. Personally, the idea of this project excites me as I would be getting the chance to participate in a beach cleaning programme as this would be my first experience of doing so. The

As I contemplate the social engagement project that took place at Pantai Bagan Lalang, I discover that it has been a deeply fulfilling experience consisting of three distinct stages: the preliminary preparations, the actual event, and subsequent reflections. Preliminary preparations During the pre-engagement phase, my teammates and I focused on thorough preparations and research for our project. Our main objective was to ensure that every aspect of the project would be well-planned and executed effectively. Instead of creating social media accounts, our team invested time in researching various beaches to determine the most suitable location for our project. We conducted meetings where we discussed ideas, allocated tasks, and collaborated on developing a budget and logistical plans. The attention to detail and extensive preparations reflected our commitment to the success of the project. In addition, I also bought some necessary supplies such as garbage bags, gloves and mineral water t

  We have successfully completed our social engagement project named ‘Wave of Change Project’ where we went to the Bagan Lalang Beach in Sepang to clean the beach and recycle the rubbish. From this project, I have learned several important lessons and gained valuable insights in three different stages which are the planning stage, execution stage and post project stage. Firstly, during the planning stage, I have realized that without well-defined objectives, it becomes challenging to determine the project's direction and measure its success. After we defined our project objective to contribute to the preservation of our local environment and raise awareness about the importance of keeping our beaches clean. We have several discussions on the topic of project we would like to carry out. Then, after researching on our target audience, their needs, and the prevailing social issues that need to be addressed , we came out with two proposals which were either to instil engineering knowle
