In honour of #WorldTurtleDay today, I’d like to share my journey with #turtles, how I ended up studying them, how I co-founded a non-profit in Malaysia, and what I wished for our turtles.
(This is a #thread.)

My BFF is running her first marathon in October, and she would like to raise RM10,000 to support turtle conservation efforts by TCS @TCSMsia 🐢
Please consider cheering her on, and helping save our critically endangered river terrapins! https://t.co/UDzq5QaTKO 🏃♀️
@bongkersz This is exactly why interest-free (and BNPL) instalment plans are helpful (and popular!). Tak ramai yang mampu sekaligus bayar RM6,000 tapi boleh instalment 👍🏻
I went on air yesterday to talk about the new population of terrapins found in the Kuantan River! @TCSMsia
Article @staronline: https://t.co/W6gzEDIzNK
Podcast @BFMradio: https://t.co/9CPUwLNCai The terrapin news starts at 5:20
We discovered a new population of river terrapins in the Kuantan River! 🐢
In 2018, we were told that we were “10 years too late,” so it’s a pleasant surprise to see that they are still around! 🎉

Turtles are wildlife and they should be left in the wild. Do not keep them as pet, or for whatever reason. If you absolutely must keep them, ensure that you have the proper documentation/ license. Especially if they’re listed in the Malaysian Wildlife Conservation Act.

2. Interns will receive an allowance when they assist in certain projects.
3. Subsidised accommodation for female interns are provided.
Do we lose out on potential income?
Of course.

Someone posted on LinkedIn that Harvard University is waiving tuition fees for families earning under $200,000 and the author asked, “What are we doing to help more kids compete for opportunities?”
1. At @TCSMsia, we don’t charge an internship training fee.
