About me :
I am a simple Malay man, happily married to a wonderful wife, has two adorable, beautiful children. I started in OUM as an executive 9 years ago and i built up my career here until the position that i am at now. I play futsal occasionally but most of the time i would like to spend my leisure day hitting the bowling alley with my wife and my three years old son. I believe that if u want to success in whatever u do, u have to have the strong passion towards it and believe in yourself. Be humble always and always, always appreciate your love ones while they are still with you.

Remember me as :
I would like to be remembered as someone who is dedicated and committed to whatever i do in my life and never stop believing in myself.

Attitude

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, then circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think, say, or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company, a church, a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day.

We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you. We are in charge of our attitudes.

The Secret of an Efficient Secretary

Arnold Bennett, the British novelist, had a publisher who boasted about the extraordinary efficiency of his secretary. One day while visiting the publisher's office, Bennett asked her: "Your boss claims you're extremely efficient. What's your secret?"

"It's not my secret," said the secretary, "it's his." Each time she did something for him, no matter how insignificant, she explained, he never failed to acknowledge and appreciate it. Because of this, she took infinite pains with her work.

Position/Department: Assistant Director /Johor Learning Centre
Personality Type: Choleric, Melancholic.

About me :
Naturally, I would consider myself a quiet person. Over the years, I have overcome my shyness in order to build my career. I like to read a lot when I am free, anything from short articles to biographies of important people. I would like to create a legacy that I can leave behind. For that matter, I am in the process of writing my own book and hope it will be published at the end of the year. I am also active in translating books and a book I translated is scheduled to come out during the Book Fair this year. I am very ambitious in determining the direction of my life and hope that I can share my experiences and knowledge with the community via the platform I am comfortable with – writing.

Remember me as :
I would like to be known as an author of a best-selling book – does not matter whether it is a non-fiction or a fiction.

2009 Success/Significant:
Getting married had never been in my top list. I have always been pursuing my studies and get myself equipped with the necessary skills to be able to move further in my career. So, the most significant event that happened in 2009 was when I finally decided to get married and had my wedding in October 2009.

2010 Resolution:
• I wish I would move up in OUM as a manager.
• I wish I would complete my MBA with specialisation in Marketing and graduate this year.
• I wish by the end of the year, a book with my name printed on it will be out in the bookstores.
