The Frozen Product Workshop aimed to provide villagers with exposure to several skills-based activities in the field of cooking. The participants were trained in a practical setting with sufficient equipment, guided by skilled trainers in the relevant fields. The programme is also hoped to equip participants with skills and introduce the concept of small businesses that can generate profits. The workshop also aimed to enhance participants’ social and communication skills while providing them with experience and knowledge in producing frozen food products. – James Kon
