On the 1st to 3rd May 2015, I had attended an international ESL conference at The Royale Chulan Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. The 24th International Conference 2015 was organised by Malaysian English Language Teaching Association or MELTA, one of the established prominent body regarding English Language Teaching in Malaysia.
The conference was officiated by YAM Tunku Ali Redhauddin Ibni Tunku Muhriz, the Crown Price of Negeri Sembilan. It was quite nice to see a person who I used to watch him in the Discovery Channel stood in front of me and spoke superb English. YAM Tunku Ali Redhauddin is the brother of YAM Tunku ‘Abidin Muhriz, my favourite author in Malay Mails tabloid and Roaming Beyond The Fence book.
A forum was conducted right after the officiating ceremony presenting famous personnel such as radio presenter, Uma from BFM and famously controversial activist Marina Mahathir from Sisters in Islam. I wanted to take a photo with them, but still I did not have the courage to do that.
Soon after the forum ended all participants moved to parallel session of workshops, presentations and exhibitions.
I had learned so many things throughout this three days there. This conference did widen my perspective in English Language teaching field. Thanks to Puan Zati Haslinda, DELO of Petaling Perdana for choosing me to be part of the team. I will absolutely share the new knowledge with my colleagues at the school.
