It is with a tinge of sadness to see them leave as young adults on the edge of realising their dreams to conquer the world in their own fashion. Nonetheless, we are also happy for them as we see them as boys and girls whom we have nurtured for so many year, for some of us, and for whom we wish great things. As such we are always delighted to have our former students drop by the school when they are back in the country, and most certainly, we are always very proud of what they have achieved. As you look through these pages of this issue, you will see a diverse range of people from various countries and cultures who had come together for a ‘brief’ moment in time in our school.

MPRA 2013 will see 5 category Award winners, 11 Certificates of Excellence and 3 Honourable Mentions. In addition, the Awards’ highest honour, The Campaign of the Year, is also up for grabs this year. Once again, we will also be recognising a senior member of the Malaysian PR industry with the PRCA Malaysia Lifetime Achievement Award. As the leading local industry awards modelled after Media publication’s Asia PR Awards, the MPRA was introduced as an avenue for public relations professionals to put forth their exceptional work for clients and organisations. The Awards also functions as an industry showcase of the rich talent, growing expertise and professional standards which abound in Malaysia. While we celebrate the achievements of our winners tonight, I would like to draw your attention to the judges’ feedback with regards to the entries. They acknowledged that while most of the entries were very well thought through and put together, it was lacking the creative boost needed to grab the audience’s attention and thus transform it into a memorable piece of work.
