ntv7 Feel Good Run 2013: 80 Celebrities #dogoodfeelgood @ Sri Pentas on 7 July #ntv7fgr

***********************************

To commemorate ntv7’s big 15th year anniversary, the Feel Good Run this year will be more exciting than ever. This year, ntv7 has decided to keep its previous year’s slogan, ‘Do Good Feel Good’ as the station feels that the act of benevolence goes a long way and until that mission is accomplished with maximum satisfaction, the slogan remains a motivation factor for them to share the love.

Feel Good Run 2013 will be held on 7 July, from 6.00am until 10.30am. The starting point will be at Sri Pentas, Bandar Utama, while the finishing line is at Central Park, One Utama. A variety of activities will be carried out at Central Park where runners and their families are encouraged to join in the fun.

In-conjunction with the channel’s 15th anniversary, the committee has decided on a special “15KM category” this year, while giving a chance for runners to take on a longer distance route than its previous years. Runners are allowed to pick their preferred category. They are;

1)    15KM Feel Good Run
For age 16 and above

2)    7KM Feel Good Run
For age 13 and above

3)    2.3KM Bananana! Run
For age 7 – 12 only


Viewers or members of the public who wish to register for the run may do so from 1 April until 31 May 2013 or upon reaching 5,000 runners, whichever comes first. They may do it online by logging onto www.ntv7.com.my/feelgoodrun, or alternatively they may register manually at Federal Territory Amateur Athletic Association (FTAAA) and at the Twenty First Century Sports (M) Sdn Bhd. The fee for 15KM run is RM35, for 7KM is also RM35 and RM15 for 2.3KM.

This year, Feel Good Run will be introducing the convenience of “bulk registration” for runners who wish to register in a group with a maximum of 10 individuals for the 15KM or 7KM categories. The public can also email in their queries to “Hooha! Asia” at enquiry@hooha.asia for more information on how to register.

There is also an exclusive corporate package that is established to encourage corporations to participate in the Feel Good Run event, and nominate their staff to run in a team. The minimum fee for a team with maximum of 15 runners is RM1,000. Interested companies can email in their queries to feelgoodrun@ntv7.com.my.

A runner’s Running Kit will be provided to all, comprising a running t-shirt, a message bib and a runner’s guide. Runners who complete their run will also be given a finisher memento and participation certificate at the end of the run.

Meanwhile, the station will dedicate the whole month of May for the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives with numerous visitations and other beneficial activities will be conducted with our beneficiaries. The beneficiaries for this year’s Feel Good Run are; Hospis Malaysia, Malaysian Rare Disorders Society, Rumah Kanak-Kanak Tengku Budriah and SPCA. All proceeds from the run, including the corporate package, will be channeled to the four beneficiaries.

Last year, the event managed to raise a total of RM142,800 with over 5,000 registered runners and a celebrity participation of more than 80, making it the largest run held in Bandar Utama. The full list of participating celebrities this year will be revealed at a later date. Runners who prefer to run in costumes are more than welcomed, just like its previous years.

Casts and crews of Small Mission Enterprise @ Private Screening Launch

In mid of September I was invited to GSC’s Pavilion Kuala Lumpur for MALAYSIA SME’s aptly titled Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E) screening. Celebrities such as Azura Zainal, Ludwig, Xandria Ooi, Yuri Wong, Megan Tan and Cecilia Yong showed their avid support while cast members Baki Zainal, Ash Nair, Alvin Wong, Ruzana Ibrahim, Adibah Noor, Indi Nadarajah and the delectable Chelsia Ng enlivened the proceedings with their presence. 

Dian Sharlin welcomed the guests to S.M.E premiere

Emcee, Dian Sharlin welcomed guests to the premiere of Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E) presented by MALAYSIA SME, a partnership that aspiring Davids among today’s sea of corporate Goliaths will appreciate the light-hearted approach taken by MALAYSIA SME when it comes to edutainment that isn’t condescending, dry and preachy.  

Wayne Lim, CEO of MALAYSIA SME

Wayne Lim, CEO of MALAYSIA SME delivered the opening speech and thanked everyone for making time to celebrate the launch of the much anticipated sitcom. 

A tongue-in-cheek take on Small Medium Enterprises, the sitcom will be MALAYSIA SME’s first foray into television, and it has the makings of a rib-tickling affair even as it looks to create awareness of the various stumbling-blocks encountered by entrepreneurs from all walks of life – whether it be a family stationary business, a tailoring shop or a pastry café. The quirky premise pays tribute to the gung-ho spirit and determination of those who decide to strike out on their own accord.

“It’s the first time ever that an SME sitcom is being aired on Malaysian television. And like any humble beginning that was fuelled by a desire to carve out a niche and champion the entrepreneurial spirit of gung-ho individuals, Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E) was an undertaking that was meant to inform even as it entertains,” asserts Wayne.

 “Hopefully, the colourful antics and comic timing of our talented cast will shine through in a comedy that the whole family can enjoy.”

Douglas Lim, director of Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E)

Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E) director Douglas Lim, who also took to the stage, credited the successful completion of the project to a strong story concept that never wavered from its quest to inject the technical know-hows of running a small business into light-hearted premise. 

“As the director, it was imperative that I was able to meld sketch-show elements of the show with the narrative that often had practical real-life situations that aspiring entrepreneurs have to deal with,” states Douglas. “Our wonderful cast definitely made the experience a memorable one.”

Some casts and crews who were involved in Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E)

When the velvet cordons were lifted, guests made their way into the screening theatre where episode one and teasers from subsequent episodes were premiered for the first time with audience given their first introduction to  Mohan (Ash Nair),  Zam (Baki Zainal) and Jose (Alvin Wong) as they embarked on their entrepreneurial journey.

Let see how Alvin, Chelsey, Ash, Baki and Ruzana act in the SME Sitcom =)

Small Mission Enterprise Synopsis:

Malaysia’s 1st SME Sitcom program portrays the story around 3 young Malaysians embarking on their entrepreneurship journey at different stages of their lives. Mohan (Ash Nair) taking on the challenge to improve & expand his family stationary business owned by his dad, Kumar (Indi Nadarajah), Zam (Baki Zainal) pretty much a “one leg kick” running a tailoring shop owned by his auntie, Cik Aminah (Adibah Noor) and Jose (Alvin Wong) newly jobless Salesman decided to open his own pastry cafe realising his passion for baking. Lydia (Ruzana Ibrahim) is Zam’s ever supportive wife. Michelle (Chelsia Ng) is Jose’s forever loving & loyal girlfriend works as an insurance agent and always saves him from awkward situations.

The show will portrayed are the various challenges confronting a typical like SME business in such a hilarious manner thus giving the audience a “Real like Situation” of the journey embarked by Mohan, Zam and Jose.

Every week, the sitcom unfolds different thematic plots that will present different dilemmas faced in business and possible solutions available for SMEs. This again is so representative of the realities of the current lifestyle of the young entrepreneurs living a world of endless opportunities & challenges.

Each episode will highlight various themes and situations that any businesses will go through such as registering the business, logistics, risk management, office automation, human resource, taxes, and so on. Serious topics but shown in such a hilarious manner that will sure to tickle your funny bone.

The various weekly themes twine around the central theme of “comedy, friendship & the never give up spirit”, a proven successful draw for audience of all ages. The show overall will not only provide a better understanding about SMEs to the public but to spark the fire of entrepreneurship as well.

From registering the business, logistics, risk management, office automation, human resource and taxation, serious issues are given a hilarious spin that is guaranteed to tickle your funny bone. And judging from the reaction of the audience, Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E) was definitely off to a rousing start.

Cast members was later joined on stage by Wayne Lim, Douglas Lim, David Ng of DHL Express (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, Melvyn Ho of Canon Marketing (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd and Emmanuel Nivet of AXA Affin General Insurance Berhad for a group photo opportunity.  Respective Co Sponsors were also present; Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia, Syarikat Suruhanjaya Malaysia, Pembangunan Sumber Manusia Berhad, Mitsubishi Motors Malaysia Sdn Bhd, Oris Watch and Sage Software Sdn Bhd

There was one moment where funny thing happened haha, Ruzana Ibrahim is the only one with her ribbon dropped on floor during the ribbon cutting ceremony. Ruzana looks really awkward and Baki for sure laughed out loud HAHAHAHAHA!

My review after watching the first episode of  Small Mission Enterprise (S.M.E):

Well I watched the episode of S.M.E where Mohan is helping his dad to improve the business by getting the latest printer. There were many jokes involved with the printer, some were lame, some were funny and some were true;  Jose was planning to open his own company and thanks to his girlfriend Michelle, he manage to open the company easily. I my self as an self employed personnel, find it really interesting as I did opened my own company already but there are more stuff to learn and execute if I want to be a successful entrepreneur. 

I bet by watching this humor series of S.M.E sitcom I can learn how to be a better entrepreneur in future time =) If you are a person who wanted to have own business/company but don't know where to start? You should start watching this show then =)

Every week, the sitcom introduces different thematic plots that will present different dilemmas faced in business and possible solutions available for SMEs. The first episode will be aired on NTV 7 on October 4 and subsequently be aired every Thursday at 9pm.
