Details on “Lampiran 2” and “Lampiran 3”

Back in May 2020 we launched the first Little Architect Design Competition for children to teens from the age of 6 to 17 years old.

The aim was to disseminate the noble cause from PAM through this program to the younger members and the community at large, for them to embrace design and through their designs the committee have transformed them to merchandises that will be put for sale on site and online. A portion of the sale's profits will go to the Covid19 Frontliners Funds in tribute to the people who have worked so hard to keep us safe and healthy.

Here are the promotional photos and information to purchase the items:
