![imnormgoh's tweet photo. [Reflections] Not getting into Universiti Malaya is not the end of the world. It has always been competitive, even back in 2006 when I completed my STPM.
This is a long post, please be patient with me.
I did not manage a perfect CGPA of 4.00, but I was satisfied with 3.42.
•General Paper (Pengajian Am): A
•Biology: B+
•Chemistry: B+
•Pure Mathematics: B
In SPM 2004, I scored 10As (7A1, 3A2). I applied for every major scholarship available at the time, yet received no reply. Why? Because I made mistakes in my applications and did not optimise my chances. Information was limited then, and I simply did not know better.
I was offered places at UNITEN and MMU for engineering, but I declined. My parents could not afford to support another child studying in West Malaysia while my brother was already in UPM. Form 6 and STPM became my only path, since I was not offered matriculation or foundation programmes.
At that time, I felt deeply disappointed. But looking back now, it was a valuable lesson.
After STPM, I applied more carefully, determined not to repeat the mistakes I made after SPM. With my CGPA, I had more choices and kept an open mind. Out of eight programme options, I was offered my preferred choice: Bachelor of Nursing (Honours) at Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS). Coincidentally, it was in my hometown, at the same university and programme where my mother worked as a clinical instructor. Sometimes, God arranges things in ways we cannot immediately understand.
I began my studies with a PTPTN loan, but later managed to secure a JPA scholarship after working hard to make the Dean’s List. That support carried me through all four years at UNIMAS, and it was truly a blessing.
I knew then that entering prestigious universities such as Universiti Sains Malaysia or Universiti Malaya as an undergraduate was unlikely. These institutions were highly competitive, as they still are today. Yet the journey I took brought me to where I am now. Since graduating from UNIMAS in 2011, I have no regrets. The experiences, challenges, and people I met shaped me into who I am today.
In Malay, we call this rezeki, or blessings from above. When one door closes, another will open, provided we are willing to create new paths and step forward ourselves.
There is a Malay proverb that stays with me:
“Ukur baju pada badan sendiri, hendak seribu daya, tak hendak seribu dalih.”
Knowing your own limits, being humble, and persevering with effort are all important. Life is not always fair and there will be discrimination and setbacks, but that should not stop us from seeking other options or creating our own opportunities.
In October 2021, I finally entered Universiti Malaya to pursue a Master’s in Public Policy, the university I had dreamed of since my undergraduate days. I graduated in 2022 while still working at the EU, 11 years after my bachelor’s in 2011.
Now, as I prepare for my next chapter, I remind myself of a phrase I learned from my Muslim friends: “Wallahu A’lam” — God knows best. But faith alone is not enough. We must put in effort, remain open to opportunities, and keep moving forward.
Looking back, every rejection, every closed door, and every disappointment turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Life is not about where you begin, but about the resilience and choices that carry you forward.](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0biVkbacAAk1oE.jpg)

Bagus dah TMJ keluarkan kenyataan rasmi Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara
Tapi masih aku rasa perlunya FAM atau NT Malaysia untuk keluarkan segera 7 pemain ni asal di mana
Yang membolehkan mereka bermain untuk Malaysia. Atuk ke Nenek ke Mak ayah ke
Supaya lebih meyakinkan bahawa penggantungan ini cubaan sabotaj
Selagi tak tunjuk asal usul mereka orang takkan confident. Lagi nampak kes ni cover line kesilapan adalah
Dah keluar asal usul tu nanti. Kalian fokus hadap FIFA. Netizen Netizen ni namti Tentera Bawang Malaysia hadap sendiri diorang ni
Nak lawan lawan betul betul. Transparency is our weapon now

“Kebodohan B40” - Oleh Alwi Adam.
Letih nak mengajar tapi nak buat macam mana…
1) First of all, Menara Merdeka 118 tidak guna duit ASB yer adik adik.
2) ASB adalah unit trust di bawah ASNB, dan ASNB adalah UTMC under PNB. PNB is the fund management. Ini menara PNB bukan menara ASB.
3) Bila anda ada ASB atau unit trust apa apapun, anda ada fund manager atau UTMC. Mereka yang akan invest tanpa perlu vote korang. Sebab anda adalah UNITHOLDER bukan SHAREHOLDER. Anda beli unit bukan saham. Sebelum nak masuk anda kena baca Prospectus. Anda faham, anda setuju baru anda masuk. Nak tahu prestasi, anda baca Annual Report, Quarter Report. Nak monitor monthly, anda tengok Fund Fact Sheet kalau ada.
4) Berbalik kepada menara tu, PNB melalui PNB Merdeka Ventures Sdn Bhd yang develop Menara Merdeka 118 tu sebagai tapak warisan negara. Perancangannya dah bermula 2009 lagi dan dah keluar media ever since.
5) Duit dari mana? PNB Merdeka ventures ni mengeluarkan dana dari Green Sukuk yang diterbitkan menepati standard Asean Green Bond Standard. Padu ni sebab antara sukuk pioneer yang mengutamakan ESG. Boleh dibanggakan.
6) Takde guna duit korang, takde guna duit government. Dalam annual report ASB pun takda tulis guna buat Menara. Mostly equity (saham) sahaja.
7) Bangunan ni bodoh ker? Menara ni berada tapak warisan Stadium Negara, Stadium Merdeka yang dinaiktarafkan, selari dengan MRT. Untuk meningkatkan pembangunan dan multiplier effect. Boleh jadi tourism attraction. Hotel mewah punya adalah Park Hyatt.
8 ) Kenapa tak buat project lain. FYI, project investment PNB bukan ini sahaja, dalam Strategic Asset Allocation, semua benda ada dalam tu. Baru baru ni PNB go for tech, 5G, dan juga akan ada All Weather portfolio.
9) PNB ni gov jugak la kan? Duit gov la kan? PNB ni under Yayasan Pelaburan Bumiputra. Its a foundation on its own asset and income. Duit cukai korang takda pergi sini. Itulah duit kerajaan dalam income statement dan balance sheet. So dia independent. Sebab tu kata bukan duit kerajaan tapi duit PNB.
¡PERO VINIIIIIII! 💥💥💥💥💥
@financialfaiz video production/color grading - LG 👍🏻 So far, white color dekat LG memang betul off white, bukan soft grey. 😬
Ada sebuah agensi ni lately #BangsaFDI. Sponsor satu event, semua company punya FDI dia sebat buat PR 😂
Kementerian dan Menteri yang bertanggungjawab tidak boleh sekadar hanya membuat pengumuman FDI sahaja tanpa ada pemantauan atau mekanisma terhadap sejauh mana pelaburan tersebut dapat direalisasikan.
