IMPACT OF THE PROGRAMME
This programme provided more English exposure to UMK students as well as students in other education institutions in Malaysia through casual and entertaining activities. It also contributed to increase the awareness among students that learning English is not limited to classroom contexts, and inculcate the English language culture among UMK residents outside of class time. Finally, conducting this kind of programme in collaboration with MELTA Kelantan Chapter could also be one of the platforms to further introduce UMK and FBI to the public throughout Malaysia.
