It is a reflection of a dynamism that nothing stays constant and understanding how things work, allow people and organisations to utilise their strengths and leverage on the expertise and resources in the market. This is more so for NGOs and for not-for profit organisations, which need to work in a smart manner which optimises their capabilities and resources in order to deliver the expected outcomes. This talk will use the Penang Skills Development Centre (PSDC) as an example of an organisation which was designed to do exactly that. It will cover the principles of managing relationships, leveraging on advantages and utilising the ‘power of convening’ to deliver its outcomes. Join us on Wednesday, 19 October 2022 at 8.15 pm at Park Avenue Hotel You may also join us on Zoom https://zoom.us/j/85648767359?pwd=Z0pVc0k1QnNVYXNkMHYzUjdwTm5uZz09 Meeting ID: 856 4876 7359 Passcode: RCBSP  Go to the video on YouTube to see timestamps For more information please contact Hery +6011-36858238 [email protected] This event has passed.

Staff of OCBC Al-Amin Bank, Rotaractors of AIMST University, students of SJKT Saraswathy and members of the public joined Rotarians in this project sponsored by OCBC. 300 saplings were sourced from the Forestry Department and planted in the area.  MEDIA RELEASE OCBC AL-AMIN CONTRIBUTES RM20,000 TO SUPPORT MANGROVE PRESERVATION IN SUNGAI PETANI, KEDAH Bank’s funds will help plant 1,000 new mangrove trees in degraded area Sungai Petani, 2 October 2022 – More than 100 people recently came together to plant 500 mangrove trees in the Taman Sinar Intan 3 and Sungai Merbok areas near Sungai Petani, which was severely degraded and in urgent need of restoration. The effort was made possible through a RM20,000 donation by OCBC Al-Amin Bank Berhad (OCBC Al-Amin) through its Sungai Petani branch, in collaboration with Rotary Club of Bandar Sungai Petani and Jabatan Perhutanan Kedah. The 3-year collaboration will see the fruition of 5,000 mangrove trees planted at the site. According to Rotary Club of Bandar Sungai Petani President, Thiagarajan Letchumanan, the Mangrove Sapling Planting Project aims to protect the mangrove forests, which serve as crucial wildlife habitat for a variety of marine life, flora and fauna. “This initiative is timely given the need to be more mindful of the needs of the environment and society at large. It would not have been possible without the assistance of OCBC Al-Amin, the local community in Sungai Petani and Jabatan Perhutanan Kedah. As the first of many to come, we hope this project will pave the way to restoring the lusciousness of our scarce mangrove areas.” “Today’s project and continued partnership with OCBC Al-Amin is an important step in supporting the environment which has recently become Rotary’s 7th and latest area of focus. The 500 trees which we have planted today and another 500 in December will make a great impact in the restoration and rehabilitation of mangrove in Sungai Petani and Kedah” “Given our previous years of collaboration in corporate social responsibility programmes, the partnership with OCBC Al-Amin was a natural fit. We knew we could always count on OCBC Al-Amin for our community-based programmes. We are grateful to the OCBC Al-Amin Sungai Petani branch for their relentless support and commitment to assisting the community, this time by protecting our mangrove forests.” “Not only are mangrove forests critical to ensuring the survival of wildlife and marine life, they are also essential for the survival of humans, especially by acting as coastal barriers from strong winds or other extreme weathers. Sadly, there seems to be a lack of understanding regarding the importance of preserving our mangrove forests. We hope that by raising awareness about the state of our mangrove forests, more people will come to care more for our environment,” he stated. Speaking on behalf of OCBC Al-Amin, its Sungai Petani branch Senior Manager, Ms Shermaine Cham Keng Fheng, said that the Bank engages with the communities it is involved in by venturing beyond its superior banking products and services to meeting the social needs of the people as well. “Mangrove forests have been deteriorating rapidly in recent years due to countless irresponsible human actions. Saddened by this, we wanted to reach out to support our community. The Mangrove Sapling Planting Project is a fitting first step to reinstating our national treasure – mangrove forests.” “We are thankful to the Rotary Club of Bandar Sungai Petani forpartnering with us and we hope the community will benefit greatly from these initiatives. We would also like to thank Jabatan Perhutanan Kedah for overseeing this meaningful project,” she said. She added that with 90 years of giving to communities, OCBC looks forward to enabling individuals, SMEs and businesses to build a more sustainable future.
