4 MWACkers went to the ultimate trans titiwangsa expidition last 30/6/2009 till 6/7/2009. These are their names:
- Wan Rizzal bin Wan Zaki (Sautasau)
- Abdul Halim bin Yahya (Jantan Sikit)
- Alain Iliya bin Adnan (Nangka)
- Nur Uzair bin Jais (Sangkut)
Throughout the week of the expedition, they have gone through suffer, pain, loss and gain. But, they also acheived their goal of conquering one of the hardest expedition in Malaysia which includes 3 out of 7 of the highest summit in Peninsular Malaysia. One week of suffers definitely pay its price as the 4 MWACkers and other 17 ARC-IIUM members saw with their own eyes the beauty of the God's creation from a view that most people could have not seen, on top of the world it is.
