So since you people waited....you have learnt PATIENCE =)
Ok, so the conference, Live. Revolution Amplified!
It was a mind blowing conference. When i first signed up for it, i was like ok... hopefully its fun, cause it did not sound fun. But yeah, go for it since we are learning to reach out to the community.
So, there were 4 categories. The orphans, The refugees, The Sick, Poverty and Environment. I choose Environment cause, basically i care about the environment....GLOBAL WARMING!!! Anyways, so what you will be reading is about what the Poverty & Environment Group did.
Day 1
Came to church early in the morning to register, then we were all gathered at L3. Everything went on. We went into our project groups. And we were briefed on what was going to happen the next few days. Then to the night session,....... Live. Revolution conference was officially started. And we had the night session.
Day 2
Come in the morning to register, We left for MPH, Mid Valley Megamall for the book launch of Alicia Loh. She is a thirteen year old girl diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2. So the Children's Wish Society (CWS) has granted her, her wish which is to be an author. And so her book which she wrote is called 'The Last Chapter" which is selling in MPH for RM 15 only!!
So this are some pictures and video's of what we did there.....
And here are the pictures..... A whole group of us around 80 people, invaded MPH to support her book launch. We were all wearing the conference shirt which is in green colour. So all the green people are us.
In the night, we had our session, i forgot which band came up and all.... so here are some pictures.
Day 3
We went to i think Subang Parade (someone correct me if i am wrong) All of this that we did is under Hannah Yeoh state assemblyman for Subang Jaya. So on the 3rd day, we did voters registration. A lot happened. ahaha. Basically we were getting people to sign up to vote. We were split into groups of 5+ and we invaded the mall. Many were rejected...now we know how sales people feel when they try to promote something and we either walk pass by them trying to avoid them. Or just give them 'the hand'!! After some time we did, a guard stop one of them and said to stop. hahaha... so we all stationed ourself at the booth. While the rest of us when to different places to relax and eat. Here are the pictures....We are being briefed
We went out in groups
We asked many many people!
Took a break after being stopped. We took turns, while the others rested.

Day 4
We this time went to USJ 3/4 . There we went to clean the neighbourhood and mainly tear down "ah long" posters. We had cangkul's and spades and gloves with us. There was even spray paint to cover up the vandelisme done =) We went there at 8:30a.m. We were briefed by Hannah Yeoh and we set off in our groups, there were newspaper reporters there taking pictures and interviewing us. We manage to identify 115 faulty lamps and collected 50 full rubbish bags. It was a fun and tiring experience pulling down and tearing the "ah long" stickers. The most annoying ones and mostly came about were the "lorry sewa" and "Astro!!" Haih! Some of the people in the neighbourhood thanked us, for one of the teams, they were offered drinks . =)
