Best ever department teambuilding ... :)

Every year, HR has allocated some budget for employees’ welfare. And, this includes department teambuilding. Usually, my department teambuilding will be held in some sort of resort with classroom ‘training’ and some outdoor activities.

However, we have something different this year !! All of us actually felt that this is the best ever teambuilding we ever had J No hotel’s food, no air-conditioner classroom .. and it was 100% outdoor.

Yes, for this year round, we had our teambuilding in FRIM, Kepong (Forest Research Institute Malaysia).  There are various attractions here such as silicified wood, the giant bamboo and the key attraction is the Canopy Walk.

Ok, some brief description of what had happened on the specific day i.e 13th June 2013. We all gathered in our office’s lobby at 8am, and got into the bus. Reached FRIM at about 8.40am and we had our breakfast i.e Nasi Lemak there.

By about 9.30am, we were all gathered and received some briefings from the instructor on what we were going to do. In total, there were 3 different trails that we had to go through. Of course, the first trail i.e Keruing trail, is the easiest to go. This trail started from the giant bamboo and the whole journey takes us about an hour. By the end of this trail, we were served tea break, ie some donuts and nyonya kuih  to let us recharged our energy before moving to the next trail.

The next trail was slightly tougher but it was getting more interesting and you really got to enjoy the beauty of nature. I simply love the wonder of nature .. the lovely crown . Besides concentrating on the trail, we were actually divided into groups where we required to work out some answers for the questions, pretty similar to like treasure hunt.



The final trail, which is the toughest, i.e the trail that will bring us all the way to the Canopy Walk :) The whole journey took about  1hr 30 mins. A great satisfaction achieved when we finally reached the peak of it.




Oh, it was not the end yet. After hiking up, in order to get down to the foot of the hill, we needed to face the challenges of getting down hill too. Well, getting down was even more exciting than hiking up. We needed to walk through narrow path, walked on the stones etc. But, I would say all these barriers that we needed to get through, really helped in strengthen the relationship of every one of us as we needed to help each other.


Lunch was served once we reached the foot of hill. And, we continued to have some other activities after lunch. All ended by 5pm and no doubt, we were all tired but we did enjoyed ourselves on that day :)

We graduated !!
