Everytime when there is a recruitment drive, I will hear students calling 'JOIN AIESEC!' This group of people must be very 'gang ho' in their society.
I am sure most of you have already heard about AIESEC as they are a very big organisation not only in Malaysia but also internationally. AIESEC is the world's largest youth-run leadership organisation and it has over 60 years of experience in developing high potential youths into global minded responsible leaders.
I asked a few of my friends who joined AIESEC and they agree that this programme gives a life-changing experience to each of their members as what they do provide an impact to the society.
They mainly focus on 5 categories of projects such as HIV/AIDS, teach a language, environment sustainability, cultural understanding and social development. Students will work with NGOs, schools or even charities on the front line! The duration of the project ranges from 6-12 weeks.
Such an amazing organisation and for a good cause as well as perfect for building good character in students. Of course, Taylor's will not miss out on this!
Introducing the Global Community Development Program.
What is it?
Interns (participants) can CHOOSE WHICHEVER countries (where AIESEC exists) they want to go under, WHICHEVER projects that they are interested in. It is not only about contributing back to the society but also the opportunity to see the world from the eyes of a local, experience a journey of immense soul searching and discover a greater potential within you! It's not all about work, they assure enjoyable, fun-filled experience!

It is really a good program. I have been in it once under the project Hope of the Future in Guangzhou, China. It is amazing to see how the children start talking English to us when English becomes the only way of communication! When's yours?
