Insights from a Foreign Student in Malaysia!

The 13 days of the 19 days in MALAYSIA were actually consumed in the CLASSROOMS 
of the MALAYSIAN PEACEKEEPING CENTER...

Allow me to share with you the moments inside the classroom, syndicate room, and simulation room during those 13 challenging but remarkable days...

During our SIMULATION EXERCISES where I was designated as the SRSG at the UN Headquarters
The participants and instructors from different countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Nepal, Bangladesh, Mongolia, Tonga, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Thailand, Norway, and Philippines provided more learning experiences as we shared each other our own systems, practices, and other things about our own country. The lessons learned are both within and outside the classrooms. 

In our syndicate room, together with my Groupmates.
Since we were staying in PORT DICKSON, a place about midway between MELAKA CITY and KUALA LUMPUR CITY,
we were also treated to two educational tours during our two weekends in Malaysia. The first one was in the UNESCO HERITAGE MELAKA CITY. The second weekend brought us to PUTRAJAYA City (The Heart of Malaysian Government) and KUALA LUMPUR CITY (The Capital of Malaysia). It was my first time also to see the amazing PETRONAS TWIN TOWERS, the WORLD'S TALLEST TWIN TOWERS.

Excited for another day in the classroom.
The stroll, biking, or jogging activities every after class in the afternoon together with classmates maximized the learning experiences as we explored and discovered the surroundings of our school while knowing each other.

TERIMA KASIH MALAYSIA for the remarkable learning experiences!
