Topic for Discussion

We had our initial discussion for the topic of our project paper. We have tentatively agreed to the topic and here I present to all member of the group for your comments and further discussion before we go to the next step.

Introduction:

The purpose of this paper is to discuss ways on how to encourage Malay youths to be active in social work.

Research Objectives:

a. To find out why there is less involvement of Malay youth in social work such as Red Crescent society, Pemadam, Natural Disaster Relief organization such as Mercy Relief, Consumer Association, etc.

b. To find ways to encourage the Malay Youths to get involve in doing social work in their free time instead of involving themselves with undesirable activities such as mat rempit, loitering ('lepak'ing), gangsterism and drug abuse.

Research Questions:

1. Why do Malay youths like or prone to involve themselves in undesirable activities.

2. Why are their involvements in these activities are very high in term of percentage as compared to other ethnic groups in the country.

3. Why are these youths not interested in doing social or community work during their leisure time.

4. Why the government or the school education system fail to encourage our youth to get involved in social work.

These are the four questions that we have discussed. Probably other members may have some other ideas how to improve further. Lets all of us hear your comments and suggestions.

Selamat berpuasa.

At last, we managed to create this blog. The creation of this blog is to fulfill the requirement of the Semester 5 paper SKPD 1033 (English for Sosial Science student). The group members - there are 5 of us- are suppossed to interact in the blog. This is one way to put into practice the language. At the end of the course, we are expected not only proficient in conversation, but also in writing. So, lets start blogging.
