Yours truly went all the way to Melaka to attend the Grand Launch for Julie’s ‘The Best of You 2016’ which was held at the AEON Bandaraya Melaka..
The event was launch
with a speech from Mr Sai Tzy Horng, and sharing sessions from Siti Rahayu, who
started up her ‘Buku Jalanan Chow Kit’ in the bid to educate the under
privileged people, especially the kids on the street in the hope that they can
turn their lives around to be more successful in the future…
Then there was also
sharing sessions from celebrities such as the dashing Malay actor Fahrin Ahmad
as well as the Chinese Radio DJ Chui Ling and a magnificent performance by Sada
Borneo, the semi finalists from Asia Got Talent back in 2015… and it was
obvious from their live performance how impressive they actually were…
Personally for me,
travel is what that saves me and makes me what I am today. I for one is just a
high school graduate, and did not get any chances to further my studies as my
single mother did not have the funds to let me further my studies and neither
was my results good enough to get a scholarship… and well I have been in many
awkward situations throughout my life as well and travel is the one thing that
inspires me, sets me free, allows me to recharge, find myself, release my
stress and live life… it is from travel that I learn a lot of things around the
world and what that shapes me as well…
The Best of You Movement
was first launched in May 2014 in Malaysia and Singapore by Julie’s the
well-known biscuit manufacturer…
It is a social awareness
movement to celebrate everyday heroes. The Best of You Movement is all about
finding quiet moments in our busy lives to take stock of our accomplishments
and appreciate what little blessings we have. And in asking this question, the
people from the movement wants to inspire all of us to each celebrate the
accomplishments, life experiences and well, sometimes, the people who have
brought out the best in you…..
The Best of You Movement
encourages personal affirmations and appreciations, and invite individuals
everywhere like you and me to slow down, take the time to acknowledge ,
celebrate and share the little actions and achievements that have punctuated
our lives…..
According to Mr Sai Tzy
Horng, the consultant for The Best of You, The Best of You movement began after
a lot of soul searching from their team… and it is a natural demonstration of
Julie’s belief in doing good to do well in their business….the movement also
offers and enables Julie’s internal team a space to share their stories and to
build camaderie… It’s just a simple and small gesture from their part to stay
connected to the community but everyone knows right, that the seemingly small
actions can actually be quite monumental…For more details and news about Julie's or "The Best of You", check out....

That's such a great experience to get to travel and also sharw in an initiative like this. I noticed you are also a mom of 3. I'm hesitant to travel and leave them behind. It's something I would like to do though. This is different from the Julie's Bakeshop we have?
ReplyDeleteyes, this is a kind of inspiring movement by Julies biscuits but it is for remembering inspiring individuals as well as inspiring others...
