"Breaking Waves, Smashing Records!" 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️🌊

Today, the Malaysian Association for the Blind (MAB), in collaboration with Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) held "Splash of Confidence 3.0: 75 Waves of Courage", an inclusive swimming event where 40 Blind and Visually Impaired (BVI) participants were guided by 35 trainers from UPNM to master various lifesaving swimming skills, such as diving, backfloating, using a kickboard and more.

Taking it a step further, this third rendition of Splash of Confidence featured BVI swimmers performing various formations on the water, most notably a visible "75", signifying MAB's 75th anniversary and the total number of participants in this event—securing MAB and UPNM a spot on the Malaysian Book of Records for the "Most Participants in an Inclusive Swimming Programme"! 🥳🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️

The event was graced by Deputy Vice Chancellors of UPNM, Col. Prof. Dr. Khairol Amali bin Ahmad and Prof. Ts. Dr. Norhana binti Abdul Halim, Puan Siti Mariam Ahmad Tobias who represented of the Ministry of Youth and Sport, alongside MAB Vice President Mr. Rajeevan T.V. Gopala Krishnan and CEO Dato' George Thomas. Together, they affirmed their commitment in making sports more inclusive for the Visually Impaired community, and consequently the entire disabled community.

We thank everyone involved in making this record-breaking feat in swimming possible, and we look forward to further opportunities in raising the bar for the Visually Impaired community in sports and recreation! 🏆🏅

Tahukah anda, Warga OKU Penglihatan pun boleh berenang?

Sabtu ini, MAB bersama dengan Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia bakal mencipta sejarah dengan percubaan memecah rekod baharu dalam Malaysian Book of Records, di mana 40 Warga OKU Penglihatan daripada Pusat Latihan Gurney (GTC), diiringi oleh 35 warga UPNM akan bersama-sama mendemonstrasikan pelbagai aksi renangan yang berkemahiran tinggi! 🏊‍♂️🌊👏

“Bukan semua keberanian dapat dilihat dengan mata. Ada yang lahir daripada hati.”

Apa yang bermula sebagai program membina keyakinan di dalam air kini berkembang menjadi sebuah gerakan yang menyentuh kehidupan ramai.

Daripada Splash of Confidence 1.0, kepada Splash of Confidence 2.0, dan kini Splash of Confidence 3.0: 75 Waves of Courage, setiap fasa membawa satu misi yang sama membantu individu kelainan upaya penglihatan membina keyakinan, mengatasi ketakutan dan mencabar batas diri.

Bersempena ulang tahun ke-20 UPNM dan ulang tahun ke-75 Malaysian Association for the Blind (MAB), seramai 75 peserta kelainan upaya penglihatan akan berganding bahu bersama mahasiswa UPNM dalam usaha mencipta sejarah melalui percubaan rasmi Malaysia Book of Records.

Can blind and visually impaired individuals enjoy adventure tourism? 🪂🏄‍♂️🌊

Yes, absolutely!

This June, blind and visually impaired participants from across Malaysia will embark on an extraordinary journey at Tasik Kenyir, Terengganu.

From jungle trekking and kayaking to waterfall exploration and island hopping, participants will challenge themselves, build confidence, and experience nature in ways many never imagined possible! 🤩

Disability should never be a barrier to adventure.

At MAB, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to explore, learn and thrive.







👉 Follow MAB to witness their inspiring journey in our future posts!

Many people are surprised to learn that blind and visually impaired individuals can use computers, browse websites, manage emails, prepare reports, and work with Microsoft Office applications independently.

Through MAB’s NVDA & MS Office Mastery Programme, participants learn to use Non-Visual Desktop Access (NVDA), a screen reader that converts digital information into speech, enabling them to access technology confidently and independently.

Digital accessibility is not a luxury. It is a necessity.

At MAB, we remain committed to ensuring that persons with visual impairment have access to the skills, tools, and opportunities needed to thrive in today’s digital world.

Interested in joining our ICT training programmes, supporting digital accessibility initiatives, or sponsoring assistive technology for persons with visual impairment? Contact MAB at 03-2272 2677 or [email protected] to learn more.
