Environmental Conservation Basic Materials

Oh boy, seems I've not posted for close to two years. Let's reset the clock.

I'm happy to present everyone with some notes you can use for Environmental Conservation Basic. This can be used by any BB company/entity. No permission or acknowledgement is necessary.

It is a short four week course (excluding time needed for practicals and the written exam).

Week 1 - Our trash

Week 2- What we can reuse, recycle and throw away

Week 3 - Composting

Week 4 - Minimum Impact Code

The idea of this course is to instill the right mindset for environmental sustainability and to create some new habits in young people to proactively be involved in the waste reduction process.

Please note that there are FOUR assignments. Three are clearly listed among the slides. Another assignment is a Company-level (or limited to members taking the badge) "gotong royong" where members will clean up a public area (perhaps the neighborhood surrounding the Sponsoring Body or school) together. Please apply the recycling measures taught, which means rubbish should be separated and classified by plastic, paper, metals, and general waste. You may also want to go one step further by soliciting support from your local town council in these efforts.

These materials can be tweaked and improved to suit your teaching requirements.

Hope this helps! God bless.

Here's a sample on how to do practical field notes.

Setapak Christmas Performance

9 DEC 2017 - It's been awhile since 3rd KL went on "marching band" mode. It was a real mess, but we all gotta restart from somewhere. This is the second time the Company is doing this service for the churches around Setapak who do this each year in conjunction with Christmas. 1st KL has also played a for this function before. 

It was a quick 30-minute march from Setapak Lutheran church down Jalan Genting Klang to Muk En Methodist Church. When marching carrying a heavy instrument, 30 minutes feels like a day. 

A was a great experience! But it highlighted a lot of gaps in our skills which need to be fixed before we can perform well again. 

BB Hong Kong's Drill Competition

I was in Hong Kong for work in November 2017. Typically, we'd be busy each day leading up to our biggest conference in the calendar. But in a surprising (but most welcomed) move, we had the day off on 11th November. I took the time to visit the BB in Hong Kong where one of its divisions were having a drill competition. 

I'm not sure if Hong Kong has laws that forbid showing faces of their members.. which is why the photos below don't reveal much of a persons identity. 

The organisers of this event explained the competition was organised to spur up greater interested in drill. Some Companies were able to form their own teams, while smaller companies combined with another for this occasion.

A major difference (apart from the obvious difference in drill commands, which were in English, and movements) was that teams were led by officers - even captains. That's quite a massive culture shock for me. 

Initially, I was thinking of staying for only an hour, but because I found it so interesting, I ended up staying for the entire duration. I was given the privileged of handing out prizes to some of the winners of the competition at the end (which I was extremely reluctant to do .. not that I was a snob, but because I was not well dress - 3rd KL t-shirt and jeans XD). Congratulations to the winners and may they continue to uphold their drill standards! 

My thanks to BBHK staff Mr Kelvin Tsang and Mr Lau of 27th HK Co. for the fantastic hospitality. 

Visit to Kampar

It was a just a week after 3rd KL's memorable 60th Anniversary Dinner celebrations. My fiance and I were on our way to Ipoh for some much needed rest (and to run some personal wedding errands). On the way, I stopped by Kampar to visit the 2nd and 4th Kampar Companies. 

I've passed by ACS Kampar many times before, but never really saw the BB in action there before. They've done well of late, winning in their drill competitions even. I've met some of them recently in Camp Concordia, so it was good to give them a surprise. I managed to see 2nd Kampar and their sister company 1st Kampar GB in a joint band practice. It was nice to see them in action!

We left before closing and went to a nearby coffee shop for some local flavours (it was our second breakfast, but we're in Perak, so it's ok since the food is good) before heading over to SM Pei Yua (SUWA), where one of 4th Kampar's platoons meet (no idea what SUWA stands for, but I suspect swasta?). I managed to join them for opening parade and band practice (which was coached by a former member of 4th JB studying in UTAR). Looked like everyone (except percussion) was learning to play the bugle that day. 

The situation in Kampar as a whole is quite different to what I'm normally accustomed to. Both companies were extremely lacking of officers. In fact, their captains were the only officers present on size. 4th Kampar's poor captain even had another parade to man later in the afternoon (Pei Yua's parade was in the morning) - and he had to fetch some members from afar. Some time ago, the lack of manpower also caused 3rd Kampar (which operated in ACS primary) to close down to be absorbed into 2nd Kampar. 

But I'm reminded that God has a time and season for everything. Some times things are good, sometimes not so much. It's important to keep out trust in Him.

My thanks to captain's Keat Meng and Lew from 2nd Kampar and 4th Kampar for being fantastic host. May the Lord continue to shine his light in the Brigade ministries in Kampar!
