Treasure Hunt 2008 ¡°Non-communicable Diseases and Health Promotion" (28/02/2008)

Organizers : AMSA KTSN Branch and PERSIAP year 1

Objectives : Create awareness of non-communicable disease among first and second year medical students

 

 
 

Overall, the event was a success as we had planned it since the last AMSA¡¯s AGM. The treasure hunt promo has already started at least one month ago before today and it drew a lot of responses from our peers. 30 groups signed up with each group comprising of 5 members. Participants were seen gathering in the KTSN lounge near block A as early as 7.15 am. However, the program started late as there were some internal problems. Well, nothing that couldn¡¯t be resolved within an hour =).
Thus, the real thing began at 8.30 am.
