The Asia Pacific University of Technology & Innovation (APU) Society of Petroleum Engineers Student Chapter (APU SPE SC), under the guidance of Dr Wong Siew Fan (Lecturer, School of Engineering at APU), joined the Society of Petroleum Engineers Kuala Lumpur Section (SPE KL) for a heartwarming Hari Raya celebration at Raudhatul Al-Faeez orphanage on 3rd May 2024.

This meaningful occasion saw participation from SPE student chapters from many other local universities, further enhancing the spirit of community and collaboration.

Celebrating Raya with the children (Raudhatul Al-Faeez orphanage), the event fostered joy, festivity, and meaningful connections that transcended cultural and social barriers.

It created a platform for interaction, fostering understanding, empathy, and mutual respect among the volunteers (SPE student chapters and SPE KL) and children.

Dr Wong expressed that through shared experiences and moments of camaraderie, the event bridged divides and cultivated a sense of unity and belonging within the orphanage community.

“Additionally, it offered volunteers a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by the children, highlighting the importance of compassion, kindness, and giving back to society.”

Ts Anwarudin Saidu Mohamed (President, SPE KL) emphasised the significance of giving back to the community, highlighting the positive impact the oil and gas sector can have on education, healthcare, and environmental protection.

“By organising events like this, SPE student chapters can collaboratively exchange knowledge, share insights, and learn from each other’s experiences, fostering a strong sense of community and growth.

“This not only enriches the student chapters with collective knowledge but also strengthens the bonds of camaraderie and unity within the SPE community,” he said.
