During this pandemic, CAMP CHALLENGE found a new approach to be AGILE during this period by lending a helping hand to our brothers and sisters across the border, as Malaysia announced its MCO. During this lockdown, our dear neighbours were struggling to find accommodation in Singapore as many of them decided to cross the border to stay in Singapore to continue earning for their livelihoods. News had reported that some were sleeping at the MRT stations and we were told by some companies who seek accommodations with us that their workers were staying in the warehouse or carparks. Hence, out of compassion and care for our fellow Malaysian brothers and sisters, we prepared our available dormitories to host them, providing them with a shelter during this tough period!

In the midst of the pandemic FOCUS Adventure Malaysia opens up at Danga Bay Johor at Danga Bay, FOCUS Adventure Malaysia will provide the full fledge prog for CAMP CHALLENGE, SeaOPS and of course FOCUS Adventure itself .

Already we have conducted several rounds of training for 1 / 2 Star Kayaking , 1 Star Stand-Up Paddling and the Inshore Skipper Courses .

We look forward to welcome you to the Asian Yachting Academy at RnF Princess Cove

The COVID-19 situation made it difficult in getting together physically. FOCUS Adventure continued diving in the virtual realm resulting in creating many different activities. One such activity is our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) The Online Shopping Challenge!  where participants are tasked to not only have fun through various challenges, but also to be able to give back to society! On behalf of our beneficiaries, we thank our client for their contribution! It is definitely not easy as with COVID-19 protocols, there are many restrictions to be adjusted to doing CSR programmes virtually one such factor is the scepticism in terms of engagement level of the participants as well as meeting the objectives.

However, FOCUS Adventure FAcilitators have gone through many experiences as well as armed as Certified Virtual Facilitator under the International institute for facilitation. We continuously engage and surprise participants through our virtual adventure learning programmes! Hence, we continue to help not only our clients but also our beneficiaries through our virtual programmes and to meeting their objectives!

With COVID-19 still causing inconvenience for many, we continue our mission in the name of sustainability! This activity was derived from having our own internal sessions in hopes to preserving our environment. Thereafter, we decided “hey lets invite everyone else in on the fun! To be away from work and stressful environment, we practice the idea of mindfulness to enjoy the serenity of the environment and provide a platform for all ages.

Although people tend to preach about conserving the environment the impact only comes when you actually come see it for yourselves! Every session that we attempt would only contribute to perhaps 0.0001% of protecting the Earth BUT if we all contribute and work together eventually that small percentage would continue to grow especially into good habits to our next generation.
Hence this is where we create the opportunity to spread the knowledge to all who are willing to learn and to enjoy! So wait no further, come join the family and our mission to sustainability!

The FOCUS Adventure Sustainability team strives to continue giving and creating smiles for all those around us! It was indeed a challenge having to ensure these bikes are properly maintained, fixed and sent to our beneficiary! All the hard labour was definitely worth it at the end of the day as we managed to deliver a total of 30 bicycles at once! These were also properly checked and sanitised before transferring to our beneficiary’s location with only one lorry! We thank everyone, our participants, our colleagues and our beneficiaries for making this possible! We look forward to continue impacting people and create meaning in lives!

Through many explorations, there is much to be discovered. Everything has a system even the environment. When you go close to a tree and you would see that there are many different life forms all coexisting together as a system! This is something we link towards theories where everyone is of equal value. Today, our most valuable highlight is saving a family of horseshoe crabs! At a glance there seem to be only two horseshoe crabs stuck in a stray fishing net. It was only when we lifted the net to our disarray that we discover so many of them stuck underneath. Horseshoe crabs are considered living fossils as they have been around for over 244 million years! These poor arthropods are normally sort for their blood for medical purposes and hunted in Asian countries to be eaten especially their eggs. It was heart -warming for us as we were able to set them free!

As mentioned, everything is part of the system. Hence in order to maintain the system we need to protect and preserve life and it is a pity seeing inconsiderate people who would cast their net irresponsibly. The mission is not over yet. There is still a lot that needs to be done. Let us all work together on this! Join us soon for our next adventure! See you soon!
