UKM Lecturers Educate The Public About Vaccines By Making Videos In Various Malaysian Dialects
There are so many ways to educate the public about the importance of taking the vaccine. These lecturers from the National University of Malaysia (UKM) have definitely figured out a creative way to raising awareness among Malaysians!
A group of lecturers from the Faculty of Science and Technology (FST) took to UKM’s official Facebook account on 7 June to post a series of informative videos in different dialects to address the public’s concerns about taking the vaccine. The videos have accumulated over 3,000 views altogether.

In the video, the lecturers carefully explained frequently asked questions (FAQ)s about taking vaccine in various Malaysian dialects to increase awareness among the diverse Malaysian community.
What’s different and fun about these videos is that they were conveyed in six different dialects including those from Sabah, Banjar, Kelantan, Kedah, Terengganu, and Johor.
The FST lecturers from UKM came forward to show their support for Malaysia’s vaccination efforts while embedding our multi-lingual society in this approach at the same time. Prof. Dr Ishak Ahmad, the Dean of the Faculty of Science and Technology, along with UKM’s management fully supports this effort as it showcases the ideas and morals of the lecturers involved.
This amazing initiative taken by these lecturers will definitely make Malaysians from all over the country feel included and closer to home.
Speaking to WORLD OF BUZZ, the university said they hope that this effort will increase vaccination registrations among Malaysians. Follow-up videos after the vaccination will be uploaded very soon on their Facebook page so stay tuned to see more of them!
We hope these videos will be useful to those who are uninformed about the vaccination process and how it works.
What a creative approach! We certainly need more of this. What do you think of this? Let us know in the comment section.
