Past Sem Activity: RTM Trip

Last semester, on the late afternoon of 15th of May 2009, the CPAASC have organized a trip to the RTM Kuching main office at Jalan P. Ramlee which is located just across Hopoh shopping mall. A total of 59 students including the CPA committee members have attended the event.

Upon arrival to RTM, we are welcomed by one of the RTM personnel and escorted to the meeting room to meet up with one of the senior manager who give us an overview on what RTM is all about. He also told of his experience in working in this field, where it is apparent that to get to where he is now, it takes years of working and involvement in different levels of broadcasting in radio, live shows and televisions just to be familiar with the whole thing.

After the talk, we were escorted to visit the recording department where RTM Kuching used to record their radio shows which is based on time slots. At the time, Sarawak fm were on air and we get to see how the dj interview one of the speaker of the day. After that we visited the Auditorium P Ramlee to look at the rehearsal for the Gawai celebration programme. According to the director, the props and recording the whole event which might be within the 10 minutes slots can cost up to approximately RM 20,000 and more. To ensure that there is no wastage for unnecessary footage, there are two time keepers who counted the time it takes to record the whole event.

After visiting the Auditorium, its time to go back. Before that, there are some group pics to be taken! So here they are, enjoy.. :)
