With the duty and responsibility that are given to us, we will do our best in developing AFSA towards success.

29th of January 2015
Time                     
9.30am – 2.00pm
Venue                 
Multipurpose Hall, 4th floor, Block A, UCSI University South Wing

In January 2015, AFSA organised Wongamania Financial Game Workshop. The workshop was conducted based on the Wongamania card game. Wongamania is an economic card game based on modern economic theories. It is the first of the series of financial games. The game introduces the basic rules of macroeconomics and teaches players on how to make use of these rules to make sound investment decisions in a world of economic uncertainty and volatility. Designed by independent games studio, Capital Gains LLP, Wongamania contains 143 cards with 53 uniquely designed artwork and interactive content that make learning about economics, assets, taxes, and interest rates, fun and interesting.   In the world of Wongamania, participants were able to learnt about multiple economic scenarios in the shortest time possible and experienced the anxiety of being betrayed by financial uncertainties!

This event was a great success as participants learnt and gained some important and useful insights. Thank you, Bursa Malaysia for coming over to share this meaningful event.
