BEING involved in ADA APA? was as exciting for the British facilitators as it was for their Malaysian counterparts. Although two weeks was hardly enough time for anyone to delve into the psyche of another culture, the six visiting facilitators came away knowing more about Malaysian teens than the average Malaysian adult. For one thing, they learnt that speaking out is not the norm among youth in Malaysia.
On another note, they discovered refreshing similarities between the UK and Malaysia – such as family ties, the importance of friends and interests in life. All say they would love to return to Malaysia for another ADA APA? travelling adventure.
