As we were preparing for our Monday session, Mr Said Fadhlain came with the local newspaper, Serambi Press. He told us that this project is covered in the press. This was a great booster for all of us that day!
(Part of the news article is translated here) Meulaboh-Muhammadiyah Youth Group & AMM collaborates with Mercy Relief, Singapore to organize an English Language course at Muhammadiyah Boys and Girls Orphanage, at Johan Pahlawan for students and teachers from SMU, MAN and SMK levels, Saturday (4/11). About 50 participants attended this English Language course. Muhammadiyah Youth Group leader, Mr Said Mardha Abbas commented, “The objective of this course is to improve the command of English of the students.” The coordinator from Mercy Relief (Aceh Barat), Mr Abdul Wahab said, “There are many NGOs who came to Aceh and engaged the help of English translators from outside due to a short of English translators from within Aceh. We hope that the students can improve their English language in order to expand their knowledge and technology. This English language course is led by 10 volunteer instructors. These volunteers (5 males and 5 females) are from the Generation ACTS Club (Singapore). We’ll continue to organize this kind of program when there is positive feedback from the society around”.
