As we want this to be a memorable excursion with full of information and knowledge. The participants should be ready and expect the activities to be a tiring one. We will spend most of our time discovering Penang by walking and boarding free buses. Rest assured that you will enjoy every second when you take it positively.

Of course, as you can see the name of the program is Edutourism Program, it is from the word Education Tourism. We don’t want the participants go home empty but we want it be full of fun and experience. Therefore, we have come out with a task for you.

You will be divided into a group of eight. As we have 40 participants in this program, so there will be 5 groups. Each group will be given a category. The categories are as follows;

1.  Food
2.  Tourism attractions
3.  People
4.  Heritage
5.  Business and Transportation

Each group should work in getting as much information regarding the above categories and these will be presented on the Sharing Moment Night later. The content of the categories are wide and we are pretty sure that each group can carry out their task creatively and successfully.  Additional to that, you are also required to get at least one stranger to prove that you are able to interact with people around you. We need evidence to that and it can be anybody. The more you get, the more friends you’ll have. Details will be elaborated further in Penang!

We can’t wait to share the knowledge and experience with you. GO PENANG!
