The first ever MSA fresher’s camp held at the Nur Lembah Pangsun Eco-resort was a HUGE success.
A big thank you goes out to all seniors for making this possible and all participants for their awesome participation.
We had an awesome time building our own rafts, jungle trekking, cooking our own lunch, and so much more and I’m sure that through these 3 days 2 nights, we have formed very strong bonds which will last for a very long time.
On top of that, the seniors have also shared their invaluable experience and knowledge with the freshers. Touching on topics such as accommodation, what to expect, weather, packing, and the list goes on.
Overall, I’m sure everyone who attended the camp will agree that we have achieved our objective of the camp which is to form bonds from right here in Malaysia to better prepare everyone for Warwick, because it is a jungle out there ^^
With this, I proudly welcome 24 new members into our MSA family!
P.S. The Champion team for the First Ever MSA Freshers Camp is Team Water!

Give you a clearer picture of what to expect from the University of Warwick as a Malaysian.
