My Reflection

After I graduate from UTM, I would like to work as electronic engineer to utilize my skills and knowledge in a well-known organization and develop my career. To become an excellent engineer, I need a lot of technical skills and knowledge, good communication skills, being able to monitor and handle different situations, critical thinking, learn strategies and procedures quickly and precisely. In Electrical & Electronics Engineering, there are several different fields, such as software and hardware, design, research and development. Therefore, I should possess the skills in those diverse fields. Furthermore, an engineer also needs to acquire the latest information of technology from day to day. In addition, an outstanding senior engineer and lead engineer also need to acquire organizing skills, conceptual skills, interpersonal/human skills, leading skills and etc.

I studied diploma in UTMKL for 3 years after SPM, then further study degree in UTM, Skudai. I have the good ability in mathematics, science, electrical and electronics engineering. In addition, I able to solve technical problems, carry out experiments, analyze the data and prepare technical reports. I work in team the accomplish group assignment from diploma until now. So, I also can work with other people to perform task effectively. The advantage to work in team is there are diversity of suggestions from different people, then make a better decision. Teamwork develops team members work together to give out their personal energies and talents to deliver tangible performance results. Work also can be distributed among team members. In  team working, I learned how to pursuit other people to accept my idea. But, it would be easily occurred conflict due to different opinions and principles. Therefore, I had found that we should tolerate and be open-minded to accept other comments. In this era of  fast speed, team working has became the latest management obsession.


I believe that those activities includes educational and co-curriculum activities i joined from secondary school until university improved my conceptual, human, planning, organizing and leading skills. The communication skill is essential when the time we work next time. Also, I am a well-organized and hard working. I work hard to attain the acknowledged targets. This is very important to an engineer as the engineer needs a smart, well-organized and determined mind to complete diverse projects. Therefore, I joined several different kinds of activities or program to improve my skills in work place in the future. 

And also, i believe that everybody has met frustration in life, and also included me. I faced different problems in those activities and study life. But, I had acquired the skills to solve the problems in the future. The important key is faith. One of the guidance given by Mr. Ikeda is "The power of faith is boundless. It cannot be judged merely on the basis of immediate phenomena. As long as you maintain strong faith, you can change even a seemingly negative situation into something positive and make it a source of happiness.". 


Furthermore, I had learned a lot from all the incidents happened in my life. For example, in my father  accident case, i learned the spirit of persistence and courage to carry on the life no matter what difficulty I met. Just like my mentor mentioned in his book, New Human Revolution, which "The deeper the dark, the closer the dawn. However profound the suffering that envelops you, never forget the inner spark of hope and courage. Never lose the capacity to wait with patient enduring.". Now, we live as a happy family.

In 2007, I worked as a QC assistant, in Spool Department, Shimano Component (M) Sdn Bhd, Pekan Nanas during the semester break holiday. I was in-charged of checking the quality of the products of the department and reworking on the products. I learned what were the defects on the products and how to examine a qualified products.
