AIU SEHS Clears Over 78kg of Waste at Pantai Leman, Spreading Awareness on Waste Segregation

ALOR SETAR, 4 February 2026 – The School of Education and Human Sciences (SEHS), Albukhary International University (AIU), successfully conducted Phase One of the “Jom Tip Pah: Jom Kutip Sampah” clean-up at Pantai Leman, Kuala Kedah on 31 January 2026.

The programme involved SK Kuala Kedah (Penolong Kanan Hal Ehwal Murid Cikgu Mohd Nizam bin Omar, teachers, 40 pupils), e-Idaman (En. Mukhrizani bin Mahmud), NGO Generasi Peduli Sampah Malaysia (GPS), and Kolej Poly-Tech MARA Alor Setar.

Activities began with an aerobic session led by SEHS, followed by environmental awareness sessions by BEE and BECE students, supervised by Dr. Amani Mubarak using Jabatan Alam Sekitar modules.

The clean-up collected 69.4 kg general waste and 9.15 kg recyclables (6.30 kg plastics, 2.10 kg tin & aluminium, 0.40 kg iron), mitigating microplastic pollution and protecting marine ecosystems. Recyclables were exchanged via e-Idaman Xchange (RM3.00).

Professor Dr. Abdul Malek bin Abdul Karim, Dean of SEHS, shared insights on AIU’s 3ZERO Club—zero waste, zero poverty, zero unemployment. Phase Two is scheduled for 25 April 2026.
