The second activity was a group exercise that is \’The Election of Kampung Tenaga\’.
\’The Election of Kampung Tenaga\’ was the fun part. This activity showed the real-life scenario on things that happened during election season. The objective of the activity was to vote for the leaders. There were two areas of residents which are the North and the South parts of Kampung Tenaga. The candidates were six, three males and three females. Their campaigns were in a blast as they and their supporters keep on communicating with the residents and some of them were trying to bribe the residents.
The three media organizations represented by NADi, EV, and SMU kept on posting and promoting the candidates on Kampung Tenaga Facebook Page. The residents also stated their problems that happened in the village on that page. The Manifesto took place and it was time to vote for the leaders. After the voting session, the SRC representatives took their precious time to count the votes. It was time to reveal the leaders!
