20 March 2016, Sunday ( Dapur Jalanan )

As a member of logistic deparment, I have given task to find this place. Two member from group 1 and me from group 2 had went to survey the place on 6^th March 2016. It was located at Bangsar. There have all facilities to prepare food. On 20 March, after we reached the place we had given task to cut the fruit and make sandwiches. Normally there will be food preparation like Tomyam but on that day Mr. Ramesh had sponsor chicken rice for the Dapur Jalanan. Therefore, we just need to do the sandwiches and fruit salad. I had assigned to cut the fruits.

After we finished our work, we had briefed by the committee members of Dapur Jalanan. They had share a lot of information about the urban poor. They had informed us that homeless people are very sensitive. Therefore, they advise us to ask permission to the homeless people before we take picture of them. Here I realized that homeless people also same like us. They also have feelings. I must respect them even though they are poor peoples.

Then, we went to the Jalan Panggung for the food distribution. I was shocked when  I saw there was a long queue of homeless people. I did not expect there will be a lot of ladies being homeless. I also feel commiseration when I saw there were two pregnant ladies and some senior citizens queue up to get the food. I feel thankful to good for did not give me a life like them.

Finally, we did a sharing session. We share some comment to the person of in charge for this Dapur jalanan. One of friend of mine had given a comment that some of the homeless people did not like the food because of the curry. Here I realize that even though they are homeless people, I must respect them. Before this I think that they will eat whatever food we give to them due to hunger. Finally, this activity had inspired me to conduct this kind of volunteering work in the future.

25 March 2016, Friday ( Sekolah Bimbingan Jalinan Kasih )

We had reached the school by 8.30 am. I was shocked when I saw the school was very clean. I expected vandalism because I thought homeless and abandoned street children at that school will be have disciplinary problem. First of all, there was a speech by Mr Zulkernai Fauzi , principal of SBJK. He had showed us a video presentation about that school. It is really touch my heart. I feel commiseration when the principal explain about the homeless children. The student are have international look because they were born due to prostitution. It is make me to cry because I also did not have father. My father was passed away when I was young. So, I can understand why students here are so emotional.. I also was surprised with his information that give to us. The education system of that school is totally different from the other school. This school have preschool, primary, secondary and basic level of vocasional (PAV). This school also have multigred learning system which means there will be many different age students in one class and they also do not have to wear uniforms. Teachers at this school also look so young. This makes the student at this school have bonding like sibling with their teachers.

At 9.30 we started to conduct our activity. I was assigned to handle preschool students. I had in charge for the musical chair game. I had notice that student in this school are very emotional and they are also not easily mingle with us in the earlier stage. For example Aishah and Mia are not mingle with us at the beginning. After we approach them, then they start to mingle with us. There had learnt how to handle these kind of students.

After the recess, I had handle ‘Aras 2’ students. I notice that student in SBJK are more prefer games. They also did not give attention to us if they feel bored. So, I learnt that I should very careful when choose a activity for them.

15 April 2016, Friday (Sekolah Bimbingan Jalinan Kasih)

After the meeting, we start our games session. I was in charge for the ‘Be a coconut tree’. Before this I had join ‘School is Fun’ and ‘Kem Menuju Kejayaan’ which is my residential colledge project. So have experience to handle school student. But SBJK student are totally different. When I was conduct this game, they did not understand my instruction and start to talking and some of the student went out from there. Therefore, I change my instruction. Here I learnt that I should be make sure they are did not feel bored and must choose a attractive games for them to make sure they pay attention. Then, we proceed with the other games. At 2.30pm we start to give prizes to the winning groups. Finally, we leave SBJK at 3pm. I was feel so happy that I was been one of the person that entertain them who need love and makes them do not feel marginalize by society.
