A total of 28 participants attended the programme, which was held at The Qamar Hotel, Paka, Dungun, Terengganu from 29 May 2025 (Thursday) to 31 May 2025 (Saturday). The workshop was conducted by the appointed consultant, Al Fateh Training and Consultant.

Among the topics covered throughout the workshop were self-potential development, basic entrepreneurship, online business, self-management and communication, as well as group activities including light recreational sessions.

The closing ceremony was officiated by YM Dato’ Tengku Ahmad Nadzri bin Tengku Musa, General Manager of KETENGAH, who also presented certificates of participation to the participants. In his speech, YM Dato’ said, “This workshop was designed not only to provide basic entrepreneurial knowledge, but also to focus on character building, family values and enhancing self-confidence. We do not merely aim to produce small-scale entrepreneurs, but rather to nurture self-reliant, innovative communities with clear life direction.”

He also expressed pride in the participation of individuals from a wide age range, from 18 to 78 years old, and congratulated all participants and organisers for the successful implementation of the programme.
