UniMAP SUKSIS Members Urged To Increase Competitiveness

KANGAR 26 May: Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) Police Undergraduate Voluntary Corps (SUKSIS) members were urged to increase their competitiveness by not limiting themselves to policing modules only.

UniMAP Vice Chancellor Dato’ Prof. Dr. Zul Azhar Zahid Jamal said that he desired UniMAP SUKSIS to be the catalyse for innovation through activities that would contribute to the national and international communities.

“Last year we had organised two events: the SUKSIS Community Outreach Program & Engagement (SCOPE) in Cambodia and the Sustain The Nature For The Future Programme at Pulau Langkawi.

“With these initiatives, I hope that this continue the pioneering of high impact programmes to benefit the university, community, nation and the world,” he said in a speech at the UniMAP SUKSIS Corps Commandant Parade Ceremony 2016 at the UniMAP Kubang Gajah Campus here.

Also present were the UniMAP SUKSIS Corps Deputy Commandant, UniMAP SUKSIS Corps Superintendent Assoc. Prof. Dr. Khairul Nizar Ismail, SUKSIS Corps External Training Officer, SUKSIS Corps Assistant Superintendent Raja Shah Erman Raja Arifin and UniMAP SUKSIS Corps Coordinating Officer, Assistant Superintendent Che Yob Pin.

Zul Azhar further declared that creating competitive students must done in parallel with their academic achievements to give UniMAP SUKSIS Corps members extra value when compared to students who had no opportunity for a comprehensive acquisition of knowledge and skills.

Previously, Zul Azhar who was also the Commandant of the UniMAP SUKSIS Corps, had inspected the Honour Guard Parade. Additionally, six Corps members were bestowed the Best Achievement Appreciation Certificates.

One of the recipients, Mohamad Suhaimi R Ajami, a third-year Bachelor of Electrical Energy Systems Engineering student said that SUKSIS trained him to be more disciplined.

“I am grateful to be accepted into SUKSIS because it has taught me to be more disciplined as well as learn to effective time management.

“Also, I am able to be of service to the public because of SUKSIS's focus on community activities,” he said.

He hopes that SUKSIS Corps members would take the available opportunity to master the knowledge bequeathed by the Corps as these are lessons that will not be taught in classes.

“Seize the opportunity provided to learn about self-discipline whereby you train to balance academic and co-curricular activities,” he continued.

190 personnel from the SUKSIS Corps Squad 2013, Squad 2014 and Squad 2015 attended the SUKSIS Corps Commandant Parade Ceremony.

This is an annual event that allows Senior Squads to prepare themselves before attending Commissioning Day and the Commandant's Address for the SUKSIS Corps.
