Our Commitment To Sustainable Social Practices For FY2018, we conducted this programme for students from three schools in Johor, namely SK Cendana, SK Masai and SK Seri Alam with four employee volunteers. The results to date show that the programme has helped improve the pass rate in English by some 5% among the students. CCM has allocated around RM22,000 for the execution of this programme. Rakan Saintis Sungai (RSS) CCM The Rakan Saintis Sunga i CCM or RSS initiative (which was originally introduced in 2010 as Program Rakan Alam Sekitar ) provides a platform for youth to gain invaluable knowledge and hands-on skills on the best practices to improve water quality and protect natural resources, particularly rivers.
