ABaDe'08 - A Reality....!

        Praise be to Allah SWT for His mercy, the Malaysia-Germany Academic Visit 2008 or Der Akademische Besuch Malaysia-Deutschland 2008 (Abade’08) becomes a reality. This programme that will be scheduled from 27 Jun 2008 to 6th July 2008 is organized by Foreign Languages Department, Centre for Modern Languages and Human Sciences (CMLHS), University Malaysia Pahang (UMP) in collaboration with Students Affairs Department and the Ministry of Higher Education (MOHE).

        Abade’08 is organized with the aim to learn the culture of the Germany by participating in Franco German Festival in Saarbrucken, Frankfurt and Hanover. Secondly, to serve as a platform for participants of ABaDe’08 in sharing various aspects of knowledge especially soft skills and education which are being practiced by companies that we are going to visit such as Pelikan, Volkswagen and BASF. Third, to explore the advanced technology applied from the industries. Fourth, to expose participants of ABaDe’08 with the learning method in studying German language to non-native speakers and finally to build collaboration between Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) and industries that have been mentioned earlier.

       The key aspects of the programme are to exchange ideas between students from Universiti Malaysia Pahang with students and industries from Germany in terms of knowledge, application of technology, current innovation and research development. Among other effort in the programme, we will also be highlighting Pahang as one of tourist attractions in Malaysia. The video that Tourism Malaysia provided will be presented in respective industries and universities we’ll be visiting.


       Concerning ABaDe’08 team, I think that there is one point I need to highlight. It is the positive attitudes and positive thinking of the members have in them. The teamwork that the team members shown reminds me of the Nickelodeon Cartoon channel; Wonder Pets. The characters such as Linny the Guinea Pig, Turtle Tuck, and Ming Ming Duckling always motivate their team by saying; What’s gonna work, Team Work! Therefore, I would like to take this opportunity to convey my sincere thanks to my advisors and also my beloved team members. Without your support and dedication, this programme will surely not be a successful one.
