Nothing has changed since the new SRC team took over?
Are we not listening enough? Are we not responsive enough? Are we not efficient enough? Are we not doing good enough? Can't we change the bad perception you have towards SRC?
I am not here to change your mindset. I am not God. Even God can't make you think what you want to think.
But my point here is if you see we are working, give us support and encouragement. Work with us, give us feedback. If we are doing better then the previous batches, if we are being different, if we change in the way we deliver, then change your perception, change the way you think, make yourselves open to changes.
If we are not performing well, advise us. Let us know. If we still don't meet your expectation, let us know. Don't be quiet. If you never tell, we never know. And if you never tell, it's unfair to say we never do anything.
Have some faith in us.. Lend us your help.
Come to us personally. Send us sms. Write to us. We listen and we are willing to improve.
I accept constructive criticsms and I'm not hiding from my mistakes.
I listen. If my team members don't listen to you, i still listen. I am sure they listen too.
Come on, pour me with sincere answers.
Whatever your perception towards us, i accept it. It's ok. I will still continue working. i will still continue giving my service. I will still listen. I will still do all i can to improve students welfare. I will still coming up with changes. I will still do what i supposed to do.
I am where i am today because of the 4% of you. But i am a student leader who represent the 13 thousand students of you in UTAR Kampar. Your voice are so significant and important.
Student Representative Committes always with the students. That what's me and my team always do.
To see changes, we must be together in voicing out our demands and needs.
Changes never happen in one day. But if we never take the first time in coming together and voicing up, nothing, forever, can be seen.
I may not be the GREATEST student leader ever, but at least, let me and my team members be the best SRC team ever in your studying life in UTAR Kampar.
Thank you.

The concenpt of democracy and actual participation in personal and social rights is still very vague among students. Can't blame them for not coming forward since most of them are conditioned to thinking that things will not change, UTAR is a lousy place, UTAR is trying to cheat their money, etc. Perhaps try instilling participation awareness?
ReplyDeleteAnd personally, I would like to see more activities that are beneficial to the students, not just the party/concert/ball kind. I would like to see stuff like educational camps or programmes that are widely open to the students. I know there are activities like that but most of the time, we are not even aware of it, so in the end it seems like SRC is not doing anything.
Just my two cent. Maybe my request are not the reformation that you vision. But I strongly believe in starting small.
Good luck in your endeavour anyways =)
Keep it up with the good works..At least I saw the improvement compare to the previous SRC.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'm not so active in campus so I missed up the notice on the activities held by previous SRC but not your batch.. I knew there are events such as dialogue between students and SRC member even with the VC.
Why not try this. As people dont give a shit bout SRC coz they have a perception that its the most useless body in UTAR, why not you make your actions 1st. Create an impact. Build a name for yourself 1st. Instead of sitting and whining "people dun give us comment so we dunno what can we do". Students dont give comment coz in their mind SRC is shit. Try making a change 1st. Build you credibility 1st. No matter what you do, do it and make people go "awww....SRC is awesome....I got a prob and i think they can help..". THEN they will come to you..
ReplyDeleteCoz base on your post above, its like a baby saying "Im awesome. I wanna rule the world. Support me and I WILL GIVE YOU YOUR NEEDS"...
Finally dont ask people to have faith in SRC. You gotta build your own respect...
