04 Feb 2024

Traditionally, Pongal holds great significance for Indians as a day of harvest and is considered their New Year. Malaysian Indians also celebrate Pongal.

AK Shipping 勤 略 航 運 and AK Academy 勤 略 學 院 consistently support the Pongal festival in Tanjung Bungah, Penang, sponsoring all the prizes. This longstanding commitment to multiculturalism, spanning over a decade, is commendable.

This year, AK Shipping 勤 略 航 運 and AK Academy 勤 略 學 院 continue to be the main sponsors for the Pongal celebration, organised by Banu Selvarajoo.

Log. Ranni Selvaraju, PJM, MBA (AeU), CMILT, MLogM, has been assigned to represent both AK Shipping 勤 略 航 運 and AK Academy 勤 略 學 院 at the official Pongal ceremony this year.

We're pleased to announce that our colleague, Shaikh Ina’mul Hasan Bin Jamil, emerged as the champion in this year's Pongal celebration.

A truly meaningful programme indeed.
