GOMBAK, 14 December 2022: Fatin Nasuha, a third-year student studying Sociology and Anthropology at the AbdulHamid AbuSulayman Kulliyyah of Islamic Revealed Knowledge and Human Sciences (AHAS KIRKHS) is contesting the Secretary seat in the IRKHSSS Mainboard 2022.
In an exclusive interview with IIUMToday, Fatin Nasuha shared and elaborated her platform to establish her competency as the candidate of the IIUM Sociology and Anthropology students (SOCA).
Fatin Nasuha delivered the following manifestos:
- Promoting SOCA to other departments of AHAS KIRKHS & Kulliyyahs in order to provide a deeper understanding of Sociology & Anthropology.
- Organize more programmes that allow SOCA students to apply their sociological & anthropological knowledge.
- To tighten the relationship between SOCA majors and other departments through more collaborations events & programmes.
She stated in her mission and vision to promote SOCA to the other departments and Kulliyyah.
“This is because I believe many people are familiar with the word sociology and anthropology. But I feel I am responsible for giving them a better understanding of what sociology and anthropology are instead of acknowledging the word only,” she said.
She also mentioned to organise more programs that allow SOCA students to apply their sociological and anthropological knowledge through the programme, which means the students are not restricted to using what they have learned in class.
In response to the question of what qualities make a good leader, she mentioned four aspects:
1) A good leader gives clear instructions on how to make a group work, but they also do the work together with the member.
2) The one who accepts suggestions and views to make it work from this decision.
3) Openly acknowledge new people with different backgrounds.
4) Not being biased toward a specific group of friends.
Fatin Nasuha expressed her hope for IIUM students before the election to exercise their right to vote to demonstrate good criteria based on their manifesto and the video poster.
She also hoped all AHAS IRKHS students would take part in the election day, and whoever won the chairperson, students should accept it and learn to work with them.
15 contestants are competing to obtain the top position in the AHAS KIRKHS. The winners will be announced on 15th December 2022 (Thursday). ***
