Day 14: System Enhancement

I started the day by brainstorming ways to incorporate the audit procedure into the system. I plan to make the procedure easily accessible and avoid the need to input it repeatedly. The general audit procedures will be the same for every audit task, but the specific procedural steps will differ depending on the task, as the scope of coverage varies. During the enhancement process, I faced some difficulty in making this new feature work properly, and I feel that it is not as efficient as it could be. Therefore, I will continue improving the system.

I was also exposed to the audit procedures and work processes required to audit land endowment (transfer of property ownership), and I used this as input for the procedures in the system. In addition, I was provided with the Undang-undang Negeri Terengganu Enakmen 1/2016 Enakmen Wakaf (Terengganu) 2016 and the Peraturan-peraturan Pendaftaran Wakaf (Terengganu) 2019 to gain a deeper understanding of the audit procedures and the aspects that need to be reviewed during the audit process.

From today’s work, I realized that integrating audit procedures into a system is more complex than expected, especially when trying to balance between functionality and efficiency. The challenges I faced in developing the new feature helped me understand the importance of proper system design and planning before implementation. In addition, being exposed to real audit procedures, particularly in land endowment, gave me a clearer understanding of how theoretical knowledge is applied in a real working environment. It also improved my awareness of the legal aspects involved, such as the relevant enactments and regulations. Overall, this experience has enhanced both my technical skills and my understanding of audit processes, and I am motivated to continue improving the system to make it more efficient and practical for users.

First Day of Internship!

I started my first day of internship by reporting for duty at the MAIDAM office at 8:00 a.m. I was required to fill in the Act 88 form (Official Secrets Act, Appendix E). Then, I was assigned to my department, the Internal Audit Unit, where I had a brief introduction session with all the unit members, including the Information Technology team, who share the same office space. In the Internal Audit Unit, there are four members consisting of a Head of Internal Audit, a Senior Assistant, and two Assistants. After that, I began familiarizing myself with the scope of work and audit procedures in the department by reading the Internal Audit Manual, Treasury Instructions, flowcharts, and audit procedure manuals. I was also assisted in downloading the attendance application for clock-in and clock-out purposes and was given an access card. In addition, I was given a small task to suggest improvements that could enhance the overall efficiency of the workflow, as well as to provide any genera...

Day 7 of My Internship

Today went as usual as I continued working on my report and adding features to the system. The system is functional, but not completely good yet, as there are still many improvements that can be made to make it more convenient, efficient, and distinct from the usual systems used. Furthermore, I also had the opportunity to attend a Raya celebration at Yayasan Pendidikan Maidam at their office. It was a great experience as I got to meet and get to know various officers from different departments while enjoying our time together. In addition, I had the chance to consult with an assistant from the Internal Audit Unit about another type of system. He explained a system they have proposed to the Information Technology department and discussed whether it could be developed through in-sourcing. The system is related to maintaining an audit trail when they are questioning their clients. I have taken this into consideration and compared the feasibility of both systems to decide which system I s...

Day 4 as an Intern

I started my fourth day by reviewing my draft project and continuing to work on it. The Senior Assistant explained to me the use of Treasury regulations and circulars in auditing files for various departments in the government statutory sector. Today, I focused on reading and studying contract-related documents, including Treasury Act 169D, Government Procurement 2.10 (Direct Purchase for Supplies and Services), Government Procurement 2.11 (Direct Appointment and Requisition Works), and Government Procurement 4.2 (Letter of Acceptance, Government Orders, and Government Indent for Procurement). Specific exposure was given to me, as these matters will be discussed in a meeting scheduled for next week, and I can take this as a real-life example for future reference. I have also been informed that there will be an upcoming audit on wakaf, where I will be able to experience the actual audit process.  The Head of Unit also mentioned about about the sampling process, and I decided to revi...
