Fortech Family Gathering


On 24th May 2012, Fortech team had organized the team building event to closer the team member’s relationship. This event is the first ever event that been held since this team has been created. The event is been held at Dewan Seminar, Fakulti Kejuruteraan Mekanikal, UTM Johor. The event is been started with dinner that not been held as the usual dinner, but the different concept is been used that is by eating in the ‘talam’ that is eating by using the ‘big plate’.    By using this way of dinner, the ‘big plate’ is not been eat by one person, but it need to be share with the friends from three to five persons for each ‘talam’. 
This situation will create the felt of togetherness among the team members. After having dinner, we are doing the ice breaking session since we are come from different faculty and courses. All of the members are been group into four and do the ice breaking by using the concept of ‘aku adalah botol air’. By using this concept, all of the members have to introduce themselves in their group while holding the water bottle. Besides, each groups also had to form the alphabet and number by using the string that been tight both at the end of the string. The other activity is drawing our car for this competition that is the Calamaro R2 by using both the right and left hand to show that at the end of the day, togetherness is been need in order to achieve the goal. 
At the end of the event, the engineering department supervisor, Dr Shuisima give us the motivation advice to us so as to put more effort in this competition.  The activities end at 10 p.m. with all of the members’ together sing the Standing in The Eyes of the World song to inject the spirit of togetherness to give the best effort in this competition. Hopefully this event will give the impact to each of the team members.
