Research have always been my passion. Since my early education, I was motivated to acquire a profound Brief Statement of understanding of the concepts of any topic that I Research Interest learnt. That zeal fuelled my desire to pursue a career in research and teaching and I set for myself the challenge to achieve the higher education from a highly reputable institution/university. Consequently, throughout my education, I passed all of my examinations with distinction, and in recognition of these academic achievements, I was awarded with the prestigious Pride of Kuala Lumpur by UTAR Malaysia and Singapore Bronze Honours at National University of Singapore, among others.
