AFSL 2023 Morning Session

the Faculty of Business organized the AFSL 2023 National‑Level Competition, with the morning session dedicated to the Junior Category (ages 15 to 17)... catering services for the event were provided by Azam Pandan, while my responsibilities included leading the Food and Beverage committee as well as delivering the opening doa... I left home early to ensure arrival at UNITAR by 7:30 am, allowing sufficient time for breakfast buffet preparations at the Graduate Lounge before 8:00 am... the breakfast menu comprised Nasi Goreng Kampung, Telur Sambal, Puteri Ayu, coffee, and tea, prepared within a budget of RM10 for 60 pax... I was supported by Amri and Ikmal as part of the committee, and food preparation commenced punctually as planned... all dishes were tasted by us prior to serving to ensure quality standards were met... the morning session concluded successfully with a group photography session... congratulations are extended to the students from SMK Tok Dor, Jerteh, Terengganu, who emerged as winners of AFSL 2023 at the national level, and consequently the ASEAN level, following the absence of participants from other ASEAN countries in the Junior Category... they are scheduled to attend UNITAR on 1 November to receive their prizes... 

ya Allah, Lord and Sustainer of all worlds, we humbly express our deepest gratitude to You for granting us the opportunity to be present and to participate in the ASEAN Future Sustainable Leaders Junior Category National‑Level Competition 2023 today... with hearts full of humility, we seek Your forgiveness, we ask for Your protection, and we earnestly implore Your mercy and compassion, so that the competition organized by the Faculty of Business, UNITAR International University, may be blessed by You, ya Allah...

ya Al‑Aziz, ya Al‑Jabbar, ya Al‑Ghafur, You are the Most Mighty and the Most Exalted... through this competition, instil faith within our hearts, unite us regardless of skin colour or ethnicity, and grant us blessings so that sincerity may flourish within us... nurture physical well‑being, cultivate pure intellects, and open minds that are receptive and enlightened... from this, ya Allah, allow us to harmonize these elements within ourselves, so that we may become a balanced community - intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, and physically - capable, resilient, and determined, driving our nation towards excellence, distinction, and greatness...

ya Al‑Hayyu, ya Al‑Qayyum, grant that the students participating in this competition become individuals who are grateful for the recognition bestowed upon them... make them students who persevere with diligence and determination to continuously enhance their potential and performance, whether in academics, co‑curricular activities, or personal character... we earnestly beseech You, ya Allah, that this competition becomes a catalyst and a source of inspiration for other students, motivating them to strive collectively toward excellence in order to elevate the name of this nation to even greater heights...

ya Ar‑Rahman, ya Ar‑Rahim, we seek strength from Your Divine Presence, ya Allah, so that all who are present today may carry out acts of goodness... make us among those who hear what is good and hasten to perform noble deeds, and among those who recognize wrongdoing and promptly refrain from it...

ya Possessor of Majesty and Honour, ya Allah, bestow upon us the richness of knowledge, adorn us with gentleness, honour us with righteousness, and bless us with good health... grant acceptance to our supplications by safeguarding the well‑being and health of our teachers, who serve as the guiding umbrella for future generations... may UNITAR International University continue steadfastly in its mission of service, contributing towards the development of the ummah, society, religion, and nation.
