The programme returned for the second consecutive year, kicking off at UKM with famous Malaysian icons who shared their stories of courage with more than 220 students.
KUALA LUMPUR, JUNE 19 2025 – Pentas Tenaga MILO®, a platform dedicated to energising Malaysian youths both mentally and physically, has returned for its second year—bigger, bolder, and more inspiring than ever. This year, MILO® brought the stage to Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) and Universiti Tenaga Nasional (UNITEN), energising more local university students to have “Tenaga untuk Berani” (Energy to be Courageous), reinforcing MILO’s long-standing commitment to continue nourishing young champions and empowering them with core life values.
Through this initiative, MILO® collaborated with notable industry leaders and inspiring student voices from UKM and UNITEN to share real-life stories, as the brand continued to champion a new generation of youth who dared to dream big, break barriers, and uplift one another.
“For 75 years, MILO® has played a significant role in nurturing Malaysia’s next generation – not just through nutrition & taking part in Sports, but by being a constant presence in their growth journey,” said Ng Su Yen, Business Executive Office of MILO®. “Through Pentas Tenaga MILO®, we want to continue being that source of support by creating a platform for young voices to be heard, and find strength in their own stories and the stories of others.”
The first talk held at UKM successfully drew over 220 students and featured a line-up of inspiring speakers, including prominent local celebrities and UKM’s student representatives.
Key speakers included:
Nadhir Nasar
Rising Malaysian actor and filmmaker, who spoke about navigating creative risks in the Malaysian entertainment industry.
Erysha Emyra
Rising actress and recent award winner of the ‘New Popular Female Artist’ at Anugerah Bintang Popular Berita Harian, who shared her experience stepping out of her mother’s shadow and building a name for herself.
Al-Amin
A second-year undergraduate UKM student and winner of the Best Ramadan Bazaar Entrepreneur award shared how he successfully manages his three small businesses alongside his studies.
Nuraliya Natasha
A Silat martial arts athlete who shared how she excelled academically while actively participating in leadership roles and the Economics Club.
The event was more than just meaningful conversations as MILO® also engaged with students via various activities, including serving over 5,000 cups of nutritious MILO® via the signature MILO® truck, and a 40kg tyre-flip activity where students were challenged to work together or individually to flip a tyre inscribed with negative words to positive words – symbolising the collective strength, both mental and physical, needed to rise above doubt and adversity.
The Pentas Tenaga MILO® journey is set to power on at UNITEN in the upcoming month, where MILO® will amp up the excitement by collaborating with notable Malaysian athletes as guest speakers of the programme. Those who are interested in participating can visit
