ANTS Sabah 2008

On 13th - 15th November 2008, The Sabah State Advanced NCO Training School (ANTS) was held in BCCM, Tawau. The Boys' Brigade members from all over Sabah travelled to BCCM to attend this course. There were a total number of 20 trainees while for the 2nd Sandakan Company, 5 NCOs from the 2nd Sandakan Boys' Brigade Company took part in the course. Members who registered are at least 15 years of age, and had passed their BNTS level. The main syllabus in this course include: Time Management, Decision Making, Conflict Management, Goal Setting and Presentation Skills.


The opening ceremony of the ANTS was officiated by the Guest of Honor, Captain Liew Soo Chee on 13th November. The members of the training were trained to be proactive, instead of waiting for instructions before they take action. Each and everyone of them was given the chance to talk and debate over current issues.


ANTS Sabah 2008 was ended on the 15th November. The members gathered in the Conference Room for the Closing Ceremony, which was once again planned by all the NCOs themselves. Trainees shared about what they think about the course, and what they have learnt throughout the three days two nights course.


The main outcome for the trainees was that all the members are no longer slack-NCO's in the company. They had been trained to set up their own goals to be achieved by their respective companies. Besides, the members got very tough eversince joining the camp because the ANTS emphasized on discipline. It is hoped that all the NCO's can carry out their jobs as leaders in the company so that the Boys' Brigade Ministry can continue to grow stronger.
