This kind of award is very important for students who will finish their studies and graduated one day. This is because students will find a job on the field they have learned. In this case students will be evaluated based on their qualifications. If we see, in Malaysia how many graduates who excel academically do not  have a jobs. This is due to stiff competition among the students excel academically was so high and that many student do not get any jobs after they graduated. Through this competition, the students should have an advantage or expertise in the area other than academics such as co-curriculum.

With the establishmentof awards in the areas of co-curriculum, it will facilitate the students to compete with other graduates in obtaining employment. This award is very usefull if one day they would like to find a job because this is a bonus to the students in order to convince the company about the co-curriculum feasibility of the student. Every student need to grab this opportunity as much as they can to make sure that they have the characteristics that company want.
