MYDIMA Charity Run & Roll 2016 on 14 August 2016 at PUSAT REHABILITASI PERKESO, MELAKA

Assalamualaikum
Dear readers,

 Hope you are in the pink of health. Alhamdulillah our faculty had kicked-off the new semester for 2016/2017 on 5th September 2016. So I'd better update this little blog of mine before us lecturers get very (too) busy with classes, supervision and all :)

 Recently 14th August, my colleagues at UTeM and I took part in a charity run at PERKESO Rehabilitation Center, Melaka which is just 5 minits away from our Durian Tunggal Campus.

There were the five different categories to choose from and we took part in the 5 KM Fun Run.

We had loads of fun in support of MYDIMA (Malaysian Disability Managers' Association) and it was a great way to spend our Sunday (even though we had to wake up really early). 


There's a drone to take pictures of the event! Alhamdulillah it was a beautiful Sunday morning
The Wheeler's category

And we're off for the 5 KM run. My son wants to take part as well :)

Oh dear, still a long way to go...

Runners from UTeM :p

In case you're wondering, here's some information about MYDIMA taken from their official website (www.mydima.org).

"MYDIMA telah ditubuhkan dibawah Peruntukan Undang-undang Pendaftar Pertubuhan ( Akta Pertubuhan 1966) sebagai sebuah pertubuhan bukan kerajaan. Ditubuhkan pada 25 Ogos 2011 dimana mesyuarat pertamanya telah di adakan di Menara PERKESO Kuala Lumpur. Pertubuhan ini menghimpunkan pelbagai disiplin ahlinya dalam bidang pengurusan hilang upaya bagi menjalankan aktiviti-aktiviti sokongan sosial kepada golongan terbencana dan OKU. Profesional yang bernaung di bawah pertubuhan ini terdiri daripada Pakar Rehabilitasi, Doktor Perubatan, Pengurus Kes (Case Manager), Pegawai Pemulihan dan ahli-ahli yang bergiat secara langsung dalam bidang pengurusan hilang upaya."

That's all for now! Cheerios!
