This time we had a leadership training at Chevin Forest Park led by our lecturer and outdoor instructor, Adrian and Jason respectively. We were given severals tasks to be completed. First task was based on real scenario, basically to locate 'where the helicopter crash site' was and to find 'basic survival kits (bag)' in the same location. As we found the kit, we needed to reach several checkpoints in order to get another riddles, at least 100+ points. Each checkpoint had different amount of points for e.g 40, 30, 50 etc. After that, we were blind-folded by Jason and Adrian and only one of us, Amirul aka Nemo was allowed to see what would we do during that time. Amirul had to find where we were standing and also to give hand signal (clapping) to everyone. By doing so, he would be able to gather us to the assembly point. After that, we were asked to build a stretcher from a parachute and had to carry the 'injured pilot' (Jason) to another location. We needed to carry him rotationally, (4 people:3 people in 3 secs). As we reached the checkpoint, we were given another task which was to find a way back to the beginning. Just before the checkpoint, on a flat area, we were again asked to imagine that 3 bottles of water on a ' radiated' circle that being given on the task as our only hope to keep us hydrated. We managed as a team to complete the task. And the last task was, we were given 6 blocks in order to cross 'a stream' to get our reward on the next bank. We tried several times and I as a leader during the task nearly gave up. But at last, we had done it successfully!!
