Friday 23rd October 2009, SOUTH POLE GIRL.

The SOUTH POLE girl, Dk.Najibah Eradah had come to UBD at CLT ROOM 1.17 to give some motivational talk to the students and lecturer.

The talk open with Doa by Imam of Masjid University Brunei Darussalam, and some introduction by Dr.Asmah. Dk.Najibah Eradah 26 easy to call Era, become the core of Brunei Adventure Recreation Association ( BARA ) Urged the student to set up their goal and archived it.

Era is the first bruneian woman ski to southpole with the other commanwealth antartctic expedition. Era was the younger one to join the group. The group done some training in new zealand before their trip to south pole. Era also mention about the low temperature that they going to face at the south pole probably -16 degree c. which more colder then your freezer at home and become more colder when strong wind blew. Era and the group have to be mentally and physically ready to face the polar shocks.

Era also added about the malay word "janji melayu" that we need to stop it or change it. what i understand, Era was trying to urged all young teenagers to focus and set up their goal and keep the promise to be done.

To sum up, the talk was quite motivational and supportive. Even i feel dare to challenge her someday if i have the opportunities to do so,and something more extreme. But yet, i'm PROUD for her that she had manage to set up her goal and have that "GUTS"
