Bengkel Fasilitator
oleh Mohd. Shahell
(Ahli Mutiara Voice Club, Penang)
Pada 5 - 7hb April 2014, saya dan seorang ahli Mutiara
Voice Club iaitu Sariha telah dijemput oleh United Voice
untuk menghadiri Bengkel Fasilitator. Tujuan bengkel
ini diadakan ialah untuk menimba ilmu bagaimana
untuk menjadi fasilitator yang baik dan juga apa yang
dipelajari di dalam bengkel ini akan digunakan untuk
Persidangan Advokasi Diri Kebangsaan ke-5 (5th
NSAC).
Di dalam bengkel ini, kami dapat belajar
beberapa ciri-ciri penting yang perlu ada pada
setiap fasilitator. Di antara ciri-ciri tersebut ialah
belajar bersabar, belajar berfikir, belajar mendengar, belajar memahami orang lain, tidak
boleh putus asa, tidak boleh merendahkan
orang lain, mementingkan masa dan menjaga
tingkah laku.
Ini merupakan kali pertama kami menghadiri bengkel
seperti ini. Bengkel ini ada tujuh peserta, 4 daripada
United Voice, kami 2 dari MVC dan seorang daripada
Friendship Club. Dalam bengkel ini, kami dapat belajar
sesuatu yang berguna bukan sahaja digunakan sebagai fasilitator di dalam persidangan tetapi juga digunakan dalam kehidupan seharian.
Sebelum saya menamatkan laporan, saya mengucapkan terima kasih kepada United Voice
kerana memberi peluang kepada kami untuk
menjadi fasilitator. Kami berharap UV dapat
menjemput kami ke mana-mana persidangan
yang lain selain daripada persidangan advokasi
diri. Sekian terima kasih.

Close to 60 participants came for the training.
At the DET trainings we talk about characteristics
of persons with learning disabilities, how to support them and how to interact with them.
We also worked together with the Ministry of

Hooi Ting’s Wedding
by Esther Moo
Around June last year, I received a wedding invitation card from
Roxanne Teoh Hooi Ting. The date of her marriage to Law Meng
Hung was 15 June 2013.
I was invited to her reception buffet dinner at the SSTwo Mall in Petaling Jaya. I quickly called up my friends at United Voice to find out
what they were buying for her as a present. I also asked my parents
and they said it would be better to give her an angpow. She could
buy whatever she needed for her new family.
That evening, there was a light drizzle. When I arrived at SSTwo
Mall, there were many friends. They were all nicely dressed. Some
people from Malaysian Care also came for the dinner. When I met
Hooi Ting, I gave her the angpow and shook her hand and congratulated her. The food was delicious and I sat down with my friends to
chit chat. I enjoyed the fellowship with my friends very much.

UV Outing at I-City
by David Foo
Digital Lights
On 26th October 2013, United Voice had organized for us an
annual trip to I-City. My mother already bought the tickets for
us earlier. All of us arrived at I-City by bus at about 5pm. We
wore thick jackets and gloves before entering an
air-conditioned snow-walk hall. It was very cold inside. We
went down a mini-slide. We took pictures of us with the
snowman and other attractions.
After that we walked to the ‘Trick Art Museum’. The arts
looked so real. When we came out, I saw an archery outlet,
so I decided to have a game. We had dinner at KFC and
walked to the funfair for some fun. Some of us went on the
‘Merry-go-round’ while others went on the ‘Big Swing’. The
bus came back at about 9pm to send us back to UV.
