Both camps were conducted by Ms Margret, a volunteer from Holland attached to SOLS 24/7. SOLS 24/7 is an international voluntarily organization in Malaysia entrusted by Multimedia Development Corporation (MDeC) to run this camp.

I have coordinated 5 camps in Sungai Siput. 3 in Taman Muhibbah - December 2014 hosted by KRT Taman-Taman Muhibbah, Sungai Siput. Today, 2 camps are hosted by Persatuan Anak Jati Temiar Jalong Tinggi and Persatuan Orang Asli Semenanjung Malaysia (POASM), Sungai Siput respectively.
The contents of the camp are - cyber security, digital photography and resume writing. Conducted in English. Don't be surprise, most of these 'orang asal' understand and speak English!
