MSOC is where I found my people. Being in a course with barely any other Malaysians, I have missed the sense of familiarity that MSOC events offer. From the chaos of production week to the late-night ketayap sessions, what started as simply showing up to events became some of my favourite first-year memories.
As an Events Director, I have three clear priorities for the year ahead. Firstly, more social events that foster meaningful bondings, whether that’s outings to Edinburgh, Seven Sisters hike, or, if the budget allows, even a European trip! I also want to maintain consistency for existing events such as theatre outings, inter-uni and society collaborations, as well as new initiatives such as Cultural Week, MSOC Family Game Day, and charity fundraisers where we give back to society. Secondly, I want to work closely with our Corporate Relations officer to strengthen alumni connections and create more networking opportunities. These will go beyond a one-off talk, rather they will serve as networking spaces where current members can connect with Malaysian alumni more effectively. Lastly, I would like to see MSOC continue to grow as an inclusive space. This means actively encouraging non-Malaysians to participate and experience our culture. MSOC will continue to be a space where everyone (Malaysian or not) feels comfortable showing up.
Because at the end of the day, the best events are not the biggest ones, but the ones you are glad you showed up to.
