                              This event had focused on one of the Graduate Attributes which is Leadership and teamworking skills. The organizer of this event really encouraged all of the crews to communicate with one another freely. This really helpful to help me to improve my communication skills with everyone around me.

Other than that, Valorant games also went through the grouping stage as well as the Mobile Legends. The grand final for Valorant and Mobile legends was stream to Facebook on 4/6/2021 and 5/6/2021 respectively.

2) Self Reflection

On the first day when I was marshal for PUBG Mobile games, it was quite hectic since it was my first time to handle the game as the marshal. Not only that, since it is an online game, many bugs and problems were happened at that time and some mistakes unexpectedly occurred at the time. At this point, I realized that communication plays an important role when it comes to conduct an online event since we are far from one another. The mistakes were happened because we lack of communication in addition of our lack of knowledge in the games itself. Thus, it is important to communicate to one another especially during the crucial time. Apart from that, it is also important to be responsible toward the task given to us. This is because, as I was given the task to handle the PUBG Mobile, I should have been responsible to get myself familiar with the games before the event started. Gratefully, the event went real smooth after all of the problem been settled from day 1 and everything was a success at the end of the day.
