On 3 June 2023, a total of 4 students from the Bachelor of Civil Engineering program who took the AMJ41403 Engineers for Society (SULAM) course under the supervision of Mrs. Zaity Syazwani and Dr. Salwa made waste baskets from plastic bottles for recycling purposes in Pulau Kapas, Terengganu along with 60 other students from the Bachelor of Construction Technology, Bachelor of Civil Engineering Technology programs, and also local tourists. This activity is one example of a practice known as "upcycling" or "recycling". Recycling involves turning waste materials or items that are no longer used into useful objects by using creativity and skills.

This activity provides an opportunity to engage creativity, problem-solving skills, and awareness of the importance of reducing the use of single-use plastics. By learning how to turn plastic waste into useful objects, participants can reduce the amount of plastic thrown away and benefit the environment.

The donation from the Office of the Menteri Besar of Perlis @PejabatMBPerlis of RM4200 and Megajati @megajati is thanked. The donation has helped make this activity a success.
