Mitraland Joins The Edge-Bursa Malaysia

25th September 2012

The rat race is an annual charity drive that sees runners racing through the streets of Kuala Lumpur in a 4.5 kilometre dash. With this 13th installation of the charity run, mitraland decided to participate to be a part of this great cause.

There were 4 main categories: ceo, open, mixed and senior. and to make it even more fun, team members had to don their office attire to partake in the race. There were 148 teams of 5 from 80 local, foreign, private and public listed companies this time around and a whopping rm2.22 million was raised for 26 beneficiaries.

mitraland contributed rm18,000 by sending a team of 5 who ran under the mixed team category. They were; eddie Wong, irene Lai, carmen mah, Tan chee hoaw and clarence Phea. The mitraland team began their preparations one month before by focusing on their stamina and endurance. They were committed to giving their all but more importantly, they were proud to be a part of this huge philanthropic event.

on race day, the streets leading towards bursa malaysia were jam packed with supporters of various teams. The best spots were all taken up by 2pm even though the race only flagged off at 5pm. it was truly a carnival like atmosphere. a huge bouncy fun house, archery games, a mechanical bull and tons of freebies added to the ambiance and the excitement.

“mitraland has always been a strong advocate of csr and we are thrilled to actively contribute to the community.” eddie Wong, Team Leader.

“seeing this was our first time taking part, we were more focused on completing the race and having tons of fun while doing so. it was an eye-opener and the atmosphere was very festive with feelings of camaraderie all around.” clarence Phea, Team member.

“The run was definitely tougher than expected. running through central KL was indeed an eye-opener and an experience i’ll never forget!” irene Lai, Team member.

Teambuilding sessions are without a doubt beneficial to organizations; various programmes provide realistic experiences that seek to empower individuals and to work towards the common goals of the company.

Positive outcomes of teambuilding are improvement in productivity and motivation, both vital points that determine the success of an organization. by having a retreat away from the office, it breaks down barriers and eliminates distractions. other benefits include identifying leadership skills, able to problem solve effectively and capitalizing on each other’s strengths.

The teambuilding experts at fish camp Learning concocted a myriad of fun and insightful team games. certain games did seem challenging at first like building a raft using only minimal materials but at the end of the day, teamwork and trust are the core traits that emerged through these experiences.

it was another hugely successful teambuilding getaway for the mitraland team as they showed camaraderie and thoughtfulness throughout the trip; this was also carried on back in the work place.
