6. Chapter 2 Executive Summary
It is expected that the project could be carried out as per planned because the project
members are assisted by the 5 Project Advisor, which are Dr. Rohaya Mohd Nor, Mr.
Sharizal Hashim, Mr. Shaharudin Jakpar, Ms. Saptuyah Barahim, and Mr. Arnold Ryan Allo
Catarata, and all members of ENACTUS UNIMAS.
All members have their unique specializations, and experiences due to their active
involvements in events conducted by university, NGOs, and government sectors. The
organizer are passionate and enthusiast for the conduction of the mentioned project, therefore,
such spirit to empower the community of disabled could definitely bring up the mentioned
population of disabled and lead to success of this project.
Besides, this project is also expected to provide benefits to the population around Kota
Samarahan, especially population that are situated around both the Rehabilitation Centre of
Samarahan, and their subsidiaries outlet that sells handicrafts products.
7. Chapter 3 Problems Analysis
The project of Breads and Crafts had identified several issues faced by the focus group,
which is the trainees in Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan. The issues identified are as
follow.
Market Competition
It is found out that the confectionaries market around Muara Tuang had been quite saturated,
especially area around Desa Ilmu. This is because there are approximately 3 bakeries
operating around Desa Ilmu, which are Taka Confectionaries, Golden Loaf Bakery, and
Kedai Roti Segar.
As the establishment of all 3 confectionaries had a long time experience in conducting
business, the confectionaries might have gained a certain level of brand loyalty amongst the
consumer.
Financial Constraints
The organizer realized that its target group failed to attain sufficient income for the operation
of centre, if it was not supported by the committee members. Although the rehabilitation
centre is flagged under Social Social Welfare Department of Sarawak, source of funding
provided by the Social Social Welfare Department is constant.
Social Social Welfare Department of Sarawak allocated only RM3, 000 per annum for the
operational cost of each rehabilitation centre. As such, administration members of
Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan are required to fund for the extra costs that incur into the
required operational cost.
8. Ownership of Land
The land of Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan is currently under the ownership of local
community. Although the initial rental contract had been signed 2 years ago, the recent oral
agreement mentioning the increasing of rental fee is yet to be drafted. Several constraints are
to be experienced, if the ownership of land remains under the local community.
The organizer believed that the current ownership of land will affect the progressing of the
project. This is due to the tendency of rehabilitation centre to be evicted under the following
circumstances, such as failure in committing with the rental payment, recovery of possession,
and several legal conditions.
Lack of Technical Skills
Rehabilitation centre, which is flagged under the Social Social Welfare Department, should
provide training to the staffs in order to assure the smoothness of operation. However, the
staffs will only receive trainings periodically scheduled by the Social Social Welfare
Department. Such constraint indeed leads to the high turnover of the staffs as some of them
feels that they are not benefited.
Besides, the trainees required consistent training from time to time in order to be capable in
operating the machineries, and the entire bakery which are planned under this respective
business proposal. Failure in conducting suitable and conducive operations would affect the
smoothness of operations.
9. Lack of BusinessSkills
PDK Samarahan, which is run by Puan Siti Hajar Drahman, has lots of plans, and ideas in
their mind. However, due to the minimal knowledge in managing a business, they have failed
in several business as they are unable to bare the high rate of turnover among their staffs and
management of the expenditures. As such, they are quite fearful in executing this project as it
involves a huge amount of modal until they are discovered by the organizer.
The organizer is to provide subsequent trainings focusing on business management to the
management team, staffs, and committee members of the respective rehabilitation centre.
Chapter 4 Purpose
The establishment of this proposal is to provide detail overviews for the perusal of advisors,
potential stakeholders, and the target focus in regards of the launching of this project. This
proposal is expected to gain approval, technical support, and financial support from the
internal stakeholders, such as Professor Mohd Fadzil bin Abd Rahman, the Deputy Vice
Chancellor of Students Affair and Alumni Division, Dr. Prashant Talwar and Dr. Samsur
Mohamad, the Faculty Advisor of ENACTUS UNIMAS, Dr. Rohaya Mohd Nor, Mr.
Shaharudin Jakpar, Mr. Sharizal Hashim, Mdm. Saptuyah Barahim and Mr. Arnold Ryan
Allo Catarata, the project advisors for Breads and Crafts organized.
The preparation of this proposal is expected to gain sponsorships and technical advice from
the external stakeholders, such as government agencies, Non-Government Organization
(NGO), corporate companies, and local companies.
10. Chapter 5 Introduction
Breads andCrafts
Breads and Crafts is a community project highlights on the developmental factors, such as
economic factors, social factors, and environmental factors of the local community,
especially the underprivileged community. This project is planned according to the current
needs and requirements of the focus target as it focused on the development of disabled
community in the Rehabilitation Centre of Kota Samarahan.
The main focus of this proposal is to provide a detailed and specific explanation
chronologically with the phases of planning according to the objective of the Rehabilitation
Centre of Samarahan. The objective of the rehabilitation centre is to prepare a platform in
providing vocational training for the disabled and job opportunities of the disabled
community.
According to Labor Department of Penisular Malaysia, the unemployment rate of disabled
communities recorded that less than 1% of the total disabled population, which had increased
from 150617 people at the year of 2004 to 258918 people at the year of 2009, are employed
in the public sector.
The elevation of growth percentage for the private final consumption expenditure sectors in
approximation of 6.5% is mainly supported by the increasing consumption of food and
beverages, communication, and housing utilities. As a result, by venturing into the sectors
mentioned above, it is expected that the risk of a respective product to be not marketable will
be lower because the acceleration and growth of the respective sector has indirectly boosted
the demand side of market.
11. The increasing of consumption indicates that the respective industry is expected to develop
and expandable profit could possibly be attained from time to time. So, it is believed that the
food and beverages industry could assure the financial stability of the trainee, and
management team of the rehabilitation centre.
The relationship between economic growth and unemployment level has been enlisted by
Fuhrmann (2014) to be the primary factor in studying the economy status of a nation. This is
because an indication that a country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is expected to
experience lost when the unemployment rate is above its natural rate because the
unemployment rate reflects the utilization in the amount of labour used throughout the
production process.
Study conducted by Lee, Abdullah, & See (2011) shows that the unemployment rate among
people with disabilities in Malaysia are at its top because the employment rate of disabled in
both private sector and public sector are both 6750 people and employment rate of less than
1% from their total population respectively. With the launching of this project, it is expected
to provide job opportunities to the disabled and increase the public awareness of public in
regards of their welfare, and rights in accessing to special education, healthcare benefits,
financial assistance, and etc.
The objective of this project is subject to the effort of government in providing job
opportunities and identifying trained disabled which could be absorbed to the job market
because Bernama (2010) reported that the Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, the Deputy Prime
Minister of Malaysia intended to identify the trained and qualified people among the
unemployed women, disabled, and retrees in meeting the human resources needs in various
12. sectors of the nation. It is therefore strongly believe that the engagement of this community
project could result in increasing and attracting the disabled who are currently residing at
home without any sources of income to work independently in the bakery after certain
trainings are provided
With the establishment and launching of this Breads and Crafts project, it is believed that the
project may provide more job opportunities to the unemployed disabled communities. The
unemployed disabled communities are believed to contribute to the national unemployment
rate that may reflect on the healthiness of a national economic status. As a result, to improve
the regional economy status, job opportunities are to be provided.
ENACTUS UNIMAS
Figure 1 :
The Banner of ENACTUS
In University Malaysia Sarawak, ENACTUS UNIMAS, the registered organization under
ENACTUS Malaysia Foundation (EMF), is founded at the year of January 2011 under the
approval of Students Affairs and Alumni Division of University Malaysia Sarawak
(UNIMAS). The establishment of ENACTUS UNIMAS is to encourage the local community
of Samarahan and Kuching, especially university and colleges students residing in the region
in its region, in providing the social services and assisting the progressing growth of
13. underprivileged communities. Involvement of ENACTUS UNIMAS in the social community
involved students from all sorts of faculties to provide required technical knowledge in
egards of their specialties, focus areas, majoring, and finally the courses that they have
enrolled.
Persons with Disabilities (PWDs)
According to the Persons with Disabilities Act 2008 (Akta Orang Kurang Upaya 2008),
Persons with Disabilities (PWDs), or Orang Kurang Upaya (OKU) in Malay Language refers
to individuals who have long term impairments either physically, mentality, intellectuality, or
sensory. They are required to interact with various barriers to hinder their full and effective
participation in the community.
PWDs are required to register themselves at either the district level, state level, or national
level of Social Social Welfare Department. The objective to carry out PWDs registration is to
estimate numbers of disabled in this country as an aid for the government to plan and design
related prevention, education, habilitation, rehabilitation, and training facilities according to
their needs as an individual (Pendaftaran Orang Kurang Upaya, 2014).
14. Figure 2 :
Guidelines in Registering PWDs
The guidelines in registering Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) is released by 1st of December
2011 and enforced by 16th July 2012. The purpose of establishing the mentioned guidelines is
to provide guidance and clear reference in categorizing the PWDs according to their
impairments (Garis Panduan Pendaftaran Orang Kurang Upaya, 2014).
According to the announcement and presentation of the “Budget 2015: People’s Budget” by
Yang Amat Berhormat Dato’ Sri Mohd Najib Tun Haji Abdul Razak, the Prime Minister of
Malaysia at Dewan Rakyat, dated 10 October 2014, it is understood that the government
15. made an initiative to protect the welfare of PWDs by increasing the allowance for working
OKU from RM300 to RM350, and financial assistance for non-working OKU from RM150
to RM200 (Bajet 2015: Ekonomi Keperluan Rakyat, 2014).
The initiative shown by the government through annual budget presentation reflects on the
supportive action in assisting and developing the standards of living of the disabled. As such,
the organizer believed that with the awareness given by the government, more supports can
be given by the public.
Figure 3 :
Graph on Proficiency of Conduction
With the conduction of this project, the organizer locked into the 8 PWDs, which is the
trainees under Bengkel Latihan Vokasional in the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan. The
proficiency of conduction carried out by the staffs of rehabilitation centre are recorded in the
figure above.

16. Based on the above statistics, it is found out that majority of the trainees have a lower scoring
in the study elements of ability of work. This is because they are lacking out of technical
knowledge and required consistent training in order for them to acquire the knowledge and
being capable to work.
With this project, it is expected to provide them with consistent trainings practically, instead
of theoretically. Besides, the ability for them to express their feelings and creativity could be
done on the confectionaries as part of the value added and to be considered as the element of
art.
Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan (PDK Samarahan)
The rehabilitation centre is a program under the Community Rehabilitation Program, or
Community Based Rehabilitation. It has been spearheaded by the World Health Organization
(WHO) and assisted by the involvement of Social Social Welfare Department. The
involvement of Social Social Welfare Department involves the preparation of manual,
evaluation of opportunities, and modification of implementation.
In the rehabilitation centre, programs provided under the centre are Early Intervention
Program (EIP), Workshop of Vocational Training (BLV), and home-based visit. All
programs are conducted based on the needs and requirements of the trainees that are
registered under the Social Social Welfare Department and approved for its involvement.
17. Figure 4 :
The Promotional Banner of Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan
The programs carried out by the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan focus on the skills, such
as gross motor skills, fine motor skills, social development, development in the usage of
languages, self-management skills, pre-educational skills, skills of creativity, vocational
training, musical therapies, and recreational training skills.
Figure 5 :
The Promotional Banner of BLV Program
18. Bengkel Latihan Vokasional (BLV) is designed by the Social Social Welfare Department as
the preparation for the trainees to be independent in the future and capable to venture
themselves into the community workforce. As part of our contribution to Bengkel Latihan
Vokasional (BLV), the trainees under the workshop is our target group as it is believed that
this project is able to speed up and catalyze the effort of the Social Social Welfare
Department.
In the BLV Program, it depends on the resources and equipment in the rehabilitation centre.
As for PDK Samarahan, it provides training such as the making of handicrafts, and sewing of
clothing to the adult trainees. For the young trainees below the qualified aged to enter
primary schools, they will be undergoing the Early Intervention Program (EIP).
The efforts brought up by the staffs in helping and aiding the trainees are filled with care and
patience. Hrowever, the most crucial problem that the center currently faced is the financial
constraint. Because they ought to bare the excess utilities, rental, and maintenance of
equipment
19. Figure 6 :
Floor Plan of PDK Samarahan
According to the mentioned floor plan above, it is expected to put the Ruangan Aktiviti
Latihan Vokasional dan OKU Dewasa under full renovation for the bakery. The renovation
should assure that the bakery is under full compliance of legal mandate, such as Food Act
1983, and Food Regulation 1985.
The rationale in selecting the front area is because of its strategic location, which is located
nearby the District Office of Samarahan. The compliance assurance of such legal mandate is
due to the increasing of public health awareness.

Ms. Siti Hajar Drahman, the supervisor of Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan. The content
21. of mutual agreement states the location of bakery construction, but due to the ownership of
the space lot, a mutual agreement with proper writing of contract should be drafted under the
witnesses of local community, landlord, and legal person from both parties.

22. Figure 10 :
Aerial View of Muara Tuang
Muara Tuang is the former name of Kota Samarahan District. This district was administered
by the District Office of Kuching before it is being upgraded into a full-administration district
at the year of 1983.
After the upgrading of administration power at the year of 1983, the District of Muara Tuang
undergoing transformation into Kota Samarahan that combines the District of Asajaya,
District of Samarahan, and the town of Samarahan. Under the transformation of the
mentioned district office, the transformation involved the developmental issues in regards of
utilities, transportations, and buildings.
According to Census (2000), the district of Samarahan covers an area of 593.9 kilometers per
square feet with total population, which includes the population of both Samarahan and
Asajaya, of 63,581 people. The capacity of Samarahan Industrial Zone is 62,213 hectares,
which is adjacent to the village of Tanjung Bundong.
23. Chapter 6 Mission
The project is to establish a bakery for the operations of trainees in rehabilitation centre
because it provides a platform for the disabled to learn, and manage rehabilitation centre
operationally. Platform for the PWDs to develop themselves are supported and equipped with
scheduled and consistent trainings that are to be provided.
Chapter 7 Vision
The project has the following visions to be achieved throughout its phases of development.
1. To create social awareness among the local communities.
2. To produce trainees of rehabilitation centre to be independent.
3. To create wellness for the people of disabled (PWDs).
4. To provide platforms of job opportunities for the disabled.
5. To provide sources of income for the wellness of the PWDs.
24. Chapter 8 Focus Areas
Independence
The implementation of this project highlights on the effort in empowering the target focus,
which is the trainees of rehabilitation centre. With the implementation of this project, it is
expected in providing improvisation to their standards of livings, especially the project
stakeholders. This is because the implementation of this project will provide additional
sources of income, such as wages allocation for the trainees.
Source of Income
Throughout the phases that are to be implemented in this event, it is expected to decrease
their dependency towards their parents, and community as allocation of wages may
encourage their willingness of being independent. This is because with the sales and
production received, certain level of marginal distribution will be given to the disabled. As
such, it is expected that it will promote the increasing source of income for both the
disabled and their family members.
SocialAwareness
As the project focuses on welfare benefits of PWDs, especially the trainees in rehabilitation
centre, it promotes awareness and empowerment of the disabled which had been
neglecting from time to time. By promoting the social awareness, it is expected that the
nearby local community could be more aware of the development of community, instead of
neglecting the disabled community.
25. Taste andPreferences
The conduction of this project highlights on the favourism degree of the taste and preferences
for the local community, especially the PWDs community. This project is expected to
promote the local tastes on the confectionaries products wish believed to be able in
attracting more tourists and visitors, no matter domestically or internationally. With the
promotion of the tastes and preferences, it is believed that the products produced by the
trainees of rehabilitation centre could possible expands its market as well as promoting the
local taste.
Transformation
With the implementation of this project, it is expected that the PWDs could undergo
transformation, especially mentally. This is because the conduction of periodical training, and
modular programmes are expected to be beneficial to the trainees, and staffs of rehabilitation
centre. Participation in the programmes and trainings conducted are believed to provide
positive impacts, especially towards the mental development of trainees.
26. Chapter 9 Objectives
The establishment of this community project is expected to meet and subject to the following
objectives that could benefit both potential stakeholders and the target community, trainee of
the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan.
To provide job opportunities to the disabled
The establishment of bakery in the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan itself, it is believed
that it may attract more registered disabled to work in the bakery. This is because based on
the survey conducted by the rehabilitation centre, it is found that most of the disabled and
their family members are unwilling to send the disabled to the centre as they find it
meaningless, and worthless due to the limited training resources in the rehabilitation center.
However, it is expected that the job opportunities will increase by phases throughout
launching of the respective bakery as it is planned to expand the business in scales, and
profitability. So, the amount of human resources required will also increases by time.
Besides, the stability growth of the bakery may also result in providing a platform for the
disabled to be independent, instead of being so dependent on the current resources that they
are relying on. It may attract more disabled to work in the bakery because people with
disabilities are fonder of working around with disabled themselves as they trusted their peers
and believed that they would not be discriminated as what the community had done to them.
27. To provide trainingsfor trainees and staffs in the rehabilitationcentre
In order to assure the smoothness in operation of bakery, frequent trainings will be provided
periodically to both the trainees and the staffs in Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan.
Trainings provided to them cover several aspects that may be impeccable to their life,
especially their confidence level.
Our trainings for the trainees do not highlight on the vocational skills, such as the process of
baking for confectionaries products, as the trainings also focus on personality development,
personal grooming, and communication skills. This is therefore expected to increase their
confidence level in socializing and enable them to be more mobilized in the society.
As for the staffs of rehabilitation centre, trainings focus on self-development, business skills,
and coaching skills are to be provided as they would be part of the management team for the
running and operating of
To provide awarenesstowards the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan
In assuring the running of this project, a huge amount of financial resources are required. The
organizer therefore decided to approach and present this business idea to several government
agencies, and private companies in assisting the establishment of this target group. As such,
ENACTUS UNIMAS will function as the “bridge” linking between the Rehabilitation Centre
of Samarahan and several agencies. It is expected with the proper approach could help the
community in getting technical supports, financial supports, and management advises.
28. To provide platform in training studentsof universities
Throughout the running of this project, it is expected that trainings, no matter technically or
psychologically related trainings will be provided from time to time. Such trainings will be
provided throughout the collaboration with other professional bodies from time to time
because it is believed that the trainings will increase the capabilities of university students in
future.
It is expected that the students of university will have increasing level of competitive
advantage as trainings provided in collaboration are to be certified and supported by those
professional bodies.
To promote the spirit of volunteerism among university students
This project is expected to provide opportunities in social community service, since such
contribution to the society had been neglected by the public as time goes on. The neglecting
of community service may result in reduction of public awareness towards those who are in
need and caused the public to be less concerned on the underprivileged around them.
It is expected to open up the opportunities to contribute to the underprivileged as the
establishment of bakery for Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan required increasing work
force as the time goes on.
Chapter 10 Organizer

University Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS)
29. Chapter 11 Project Stakeholder
Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan
The frequent conduction of meeting with Ms. Siti Hajar Drahman, the supervisor of
Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan is organized by the organizer. The purpose of this
meeting is to understand the needs, and priorities of the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan,
Kota Samarahan. The needs focused on the future development of the centre in order to
attract, and shelter people with disabilities in order for them to be capable and prepare for the
workforce.
With the launching and establishment of this project, it is expected that the mentioned is able
to provide financial stability that is sufficient to be utilized for the operational costs
throughout the 5-year of financial planning. The cost of operations under the rehabilitation
centre is expected to break-even in the periods between 2 to 3 years of operations.
When the operation of bakery successfully breaks its break-even, an expected revenues could
be constantly generated. The generation of revenues could therefore be funded for more
trade-ins of materials, equipment, and trainings.
30. Trainees
The implementation of Breads and Crafts project focuses on the development of trainees in
Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan. It is expected that the progressing trainings highlights on
the psychological skills, technical knowledge, and personality development of the trainees.
As the trainees suffered from disabilities, such as Slow Learners, or formally to be known as
Learning Difficulties, they required progressive trainings from time to time through
observations by the trainers. This is because it required periods of time for the progressive
trainings to be successful.
Besides, the establishment of bakery could possibly encourages trainees to standalone and
being independent from time to time. This is because they will be given certain amount of
marginal numerations as an additional to their Elaun Pekerja Cacat (EPC).
31. Parents of Trainees
The main focus of this project would be basically the trainees of the Rehabilitation Centre of
Samarahan. It is expected that they are capable of being independent and have at least a skill
on hand. As such, their dependency towards their parents would definitely be minimized.
As such, we expect that the parents of trainees are able to provide us with the full cooperation
and collaboration throughout the implementation of this project. Although the result might be
of slow pace, it would certainly be more progressive.
Local community

70. Chapter 15 Scope of Project
Project Target Area
Figure 24 :
Important Spots Around PDK Samarahan
71. Figure 24 shows the map, which locate the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan, by using
Google Maps at maps.google.com with the scale of 1cm represents 500m. From the figure
above, it shows that there are lots of important spots in the radius of 10.0km, such as Institut
Perguruan Tun Abdul Razak, University Teknology Mara, The Summer Mall, Warong 2000,
and etc.
Taman Desa Ilmu, Samarahan which can be seen in the map had been the most saturated
residential areas. Students either from Institut Perguruan Tun Abdul Razak, Universiti
Teknology Mara, and University Malaysia Sarawak are among the highest number of
residence in proportion.
Besides Taman Desa Ilmu, area nearby Dewan Suarah, which is located 750m from the
Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan that is reachable within 2-minute driving, has a high
numbers of visitors, especially in the weekend. This is because Dewan Suarah Samarahan has
facilities to conduct workshops, seminars, exhibitions, and concerts, so most of the
government-related events will be conducted there, especially if the target audiences are
residents of Kota Samarahan.
72. Selection Impacts
This project is expected to provide beneficial impacts to the trainees, staffs, and management
team of the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan. The following impacts are expected
throughout the implementation of project periodically.
EconomicAspects
From the implementation of this project, it is expected to provide impact from the earning
and profit-gained.
Increase the sales volume of the products
By identifying the suitable platform in marketing the product, it is believed that the sales
volume of products could be relatively increased as the time goes on. This is because with the
help of the marketing and promotional materials, it is expected to penetrate the respective
products sold into the consumers’ choice much easily.
73. Online Promotional Method
Figure 25 :
World Internet Usage and Population Statistics (World Internet User Statistics and 2014 World Population Stats, 2013)
From Figure 25, an increment of 1006.8% is projected as compared to the year 2000. As
such, it implies that the projection has increased the total number of internet users from year
2000 to year 2014.
As such, the online promotional method, such as social media marketing, is expected to
experience the highest penetration into the consumers market. With the efficient penetration,
it is believed to influence the consumers’ purchasing behavior because the consumers tend to
be selective and comparative as the sources of comparison is under estiomation.
74. Brand Loyalty
By positioning the products as healthy, safe, and unique, it is believed to be able to gain
brand loyalty from the consumers. As such, it is important for the operational team, and
consultation team to be aware of both qualities, and hygienic for the production. These are
because consumers are currently becoming much more aware in the health factors and quality
factors.
Figure 26 :
Statistics on Respondents and Perception on Health Factors
An online survey had been conducted by the organizer found out that majority of the
respondents among the 164 respondents feel that health factors do contribute the most
towards their purchasing decision. Such survey is conducted by focusing on citizens of
Samarahan district and students residing around that mentioned region.

Statistics on Respondents and Qualities of Products
The same online survey had been conducted by the organizer found out that majority of the
respondents among the 164 respondents feel that qualities of products factors had been a very
important factor that could influence the consumers’ purchasing decision. Such survey is
conducted by focusing on citizens of Samarahan district and students residing around that
mentioned region.
From the two figures above, it indirectly shows that the market positioning focuses on
healthy, safe, and unique fulfills with the demand of the market. This is because the health
awareness among the public had been increasing tremendously since the government had
been coming out with several health policies to make the public realized that importance of
maintaining its health.

No Preference
76. Social Impacts
Increase the social awareness
Figure 28 :
Process of Social Exclusions on Malaysian Disabled (Islam, 2015)
From the above flow chart of social exclusion, it is cleared that disabled in Malaysia had not
been given full attention and being provided with sufficient exposure in regards to the
working market. At such, they are believed to be excluded and isolated in their life which had
caused the quality of life to be deteriorated.
At such, through the implementation of this project, the organizer which to work hands on
with the listed stakeholders in increasing the social awareness of public towards the
capabilities and efficiencies of the disabled. By increasing the social awareness of public, it is
believed that assistance will be given by the public in unleashing their potentials.
77. Increase the publicrecognition towards the Rehabilitation Centre
Figure 29 :
Relationship between the Public Recognition and Visitation Experience
From the online survey conducted by the organizer in analyzing the relationship between
public recognition and visitation experience among 200 respondents, it is realized that most
of the respondents have neither visited the Rehabilitation Centre of Samarahan, nor heard
about the existence of such rehabilitation centre.
This had indirectly shown the lacking of publicity for the Rehabilitation Centre of
Samarahan, which had caused its low public recognition. Such scenario may lead to
operational failure because assistances could barely be obtained due to the lacking of public
recognition. This is because corporate companies and big companies will only provide
assistances to recognized and established organization as a policy of sustainability.

78. With this project, the organizer will focus more on providing publicity to make the public
recognize the existence of the rehabilitation centre first. This is because the organizer
believes that organization that is less established and recognized is organization that is less
persuasive towards the public.
Encourage thetourism industry
People nowadays are getting more concern towards the society development, especially to the
foreigners. As such, with the successful establishment of this project, it would definitely
encourage the tourism industry in Malaysia.
This is because foreigners possess the eagerness to learn and research, especially when it
comes to a new success in the industry. If it relates to the social development involving the
social welfare, it becomes more persuasive as compared to others.
79. Environmental Impacts
Enhancement in Working Environment
From the process of implementation of this project, it is expected to enhance further on the
working environment by assuring a much safer working environment. As part of the
encouragement to the management team of bakery, certification of Good Manufacturing
Practice (GMP) is enlisted as part of the milestone that is to be achieved.
Through the certification of GMP, it is expected to provide accreditation to all the operational
officers and management team of the bakery for their efforts in maintaining a good working
environment.
Optimize the Resources
The project will also focus on optimizing its resources to avoid further wastage, especially
when it comes to the usage of fuels, and raw materials. By utilizing the resources efficiently,
it is part of the responsibility to encourage the environmentally responsible manner.

Statistical Analysis
Disabled Commitment in Bakery Operation
Figure 30 :
Statistics on Disabled Commitment in Bakery Operations

(88%) of the respondents agree to support disabled commitment in a bakery, however, there
are minority of them who either remains uncertain, or rejects the involvement of disabled in
the bakery.
As a result, it is believed that positive feedback could be obtained throughout the
implementation of project because the majority of the population in Samarahan is expected to
be supportive.

81. Relationship between Monthly Income, and Purchasing Power
Figure 31 :
Statistics on Monthly Income and Purchasing Power
From the mentioned statistics above, it is shown that most of the respondents have monthly
income less than RM200. Such statistics are valid because our respondents focus on students
residing in Samarahan area, and most of the students are either fully depending on the study
loan (Perbadanan Tabung Pendidikan Tinggi Nasional), or funded by their family members.
Although they have no income, but the purchasing power of the respondents towards
confectionaries products are still in high range, which is either more than RM5.00, or in the
range of RM4.00 and RM5.00.

82. The high purchasing power might due to their wants because teenagers do not look into
money as a source of income. This is because before they achieve mental stability, teenagers
will get involve in short-term involvement.
83. Relationship between Qualities of Products and Purchasing Power
Figure 32 :
Statistics on Qualities and Purchasing Power
From the survey above, it is found out that qualities had been a crucial point of consideration
would affect the purchasing power. Among those who feel that qualities are important, most
of them possess a very high range of purchasing power. This is because those of purchasing
power more than RM5.00 shows the highest frequency as compared to those of purchasing
power in between RM4.00 and RM5.00.
In consumer behavior studies, it is realized that market segments that consider seriously
according to the qualities of products tend to purchase the products regardless of its pricing.
This is because certain consumers consider more on the qualities.

89. Distributive Chain
Methods
Commission Basis
For this module of operations, the organizer planned to suggest to the Rehabilitation Centre
in conducting sales on commission basis towards all kiosks, and major food stalls. As such,
the respective products will be having fixed price and the seller will earn from the
commission based on the unit volume that they manage to sell out. This method should take
in accountability all sorts of operational costs, and therefore margined it.
Pom-pomVan
Figure 33 :
Example of Van Vendor
In the initial plan, the organizer tend to take into account of “pom-pom bike” as part of the
distribution strategy. But the organizer is told that there are limited people in the
Rehabilitation Centre that knows how to drive. So, we transform the idea of “pom-pom bike”
into “pom-pom van”, which actually meant to be the van vendor selling confectionaries
products, with the concept of the bike. The organizer plan to include the stickers of the
products to be pasted on the van, and include sound effect of the bike.
It is believed to be successful, as when all of us are of our young ages, we do chasing for the
“pom-pom bike” just to stop by. This is to attract the attraction of children as children could
be the greatest influencer towards an adult purchasing behavior. Besides, it is to provide
convenience towards the working adults, and housewives.
The van will be operating from morning till late evening. They will be stationed at several
schools around Samarahan after they have distributed their confectionaries products to the
stalls, kiosks, and perhaps coffee shops that are agreeable to market their products.
Event Basis
The organizer plan to organized fundraising-like event seasonally to attract the attraction of
people towards the disabled, and as well as increase their awareness towards the importance
of social responsibilities. Then, the Rehabilitation Centre could benefit from the event to
market their products. It is expected to increase the public recognition of the event as people
around Samarahan does not seems to be familiar with the centre.
91. Pricing Strategies
The difference in pricing strategies are applied to attract consumers from different areas of
niches, which are the lower income group, and the higher income group. It sets as a
psychological attributes in consumers’ attractions.
