TAN WEE TENG

             As an undergraduate of the Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, I would definitely agree that industrial training is an exceptional opportunity for us to get to the ground level and experience the things that we would have never gained through going straight into a job. I am grateful to UTM and the Top Glove Corporation Bhd for giving us this wonderful opportunity.

            The main objective of the industrial training at the Top Glove Corporation Bhd is to provide an opportunity to undergraduates to identify, observe and practice how science, technology and engineering are applicable in the real industry. It is not only to get experience on technical practices but also to observe management practices and to interact with fellow workers.

            Throughout my training at the Factory 25, I have learned and gained lots of knowledge and experiences, a million thanks to all the great people in the Top Glove Corporation Bhd who are driven by compassion, by faith, by responsibility, by idea, and by commitment.

            I am grateful to have completed my industrial training at the Top Glove Corporation Bhd, and I am blessed, and couldn’t be more grateful to have Ms. Balqis Umaira as my supervisor. Despite of our differences, in backgrounds, she accepts, embraces, nurtures and cares for me wholeheartedly.

            And it was from her, that I learned that, learning is not simply attending classes, listening to lectures, or reading notes. Nor is it merely gaining knowledge. Learning is changing what to do into doing what we know. It’s about changing. If we have not changed, we have not learned.

            And it was from her, that I learned that, academic result is simply a good indication of knowledge at one point in time, it is never the final word that defines one’s ability. It is the hard work, dedication, discipline and perseverance that defines one’s ability.

            And it was from her, that I learned that, money is not the only thing we should be chasing for. Wealth and happiness belong to those who are self-sufficient. True wealth is not just about money, it is measured by how much freedom that money buys and how much fulfilment you have in your life. Money can buy you freedom, permitting you to do things, others cannot do, and go places, others cannot go. In turn, money can imprison you. Like a ship and its anchor, money can anchor you to a business or profession filled with responsibilities, obligations, deadlines and stress, it is more than just money.

            In closing, my 12 weeks industrial training at GMP Medicare Sdn. Bhd., subsidiary company of Top Glove Corporation Bhd can be epitomized into just one word – amazing. I would like to send my deepest gratitude to everyone who had given me support and guidance during this 12 weeks. 

Pada mulanya, saya rasa pelik tentang subjek ini kerana semua senior saya tidak mempunyai subjek ini. Berdasarkan tajuk subjek ini, saya ingat subjek ini adalah tentang sains dan teknologi. Tetapi, apabila saya dengar dari rakan lai, subjek ini akan mengandungi topik yang berkaitan dengan agama Islam. Saya sangat risau bahawa saya tidak dapat memahami apa yang diajar. Tetapi, saya masih berusaha untuk memahami subjek ini.

This is my mass and energy balance assignment 1.

The Lantern Festival or the Spring Lantern Festival is a Chinese festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunisolar Chinese calendar. This year was the first year UTMKL organised this event. I was so grateful to be one of the committee of this event. I am one of the emcee of this event. This is my first time to be the emcee so I was really nervous. I worked hard and always asked for senior opinion on doing emcee. The day has come and I did my best on the stage. This was such a good experience and I wish I could be the committee of second year lantern festival in other position.  

SUKAN KOLEJ ANTARA MAHASISWA (SUKAM) is a sports day for students in UTM that are staying in different hostel. Me and my team members represent Kolej Siswa Jaya (KSJ) to take part in basketball competition. This is the first time I went to UTM JB and also the first time I went to JB. From KL to JB, it takes almost 6 hours to travel, it was a really long travelling time that makes me feel never want to go to JB again. There are many good teams in UTM JB. After a few round of competition, we lost to Kolej Tun Razak (KTR) . They are really strong and skillful. We got first runner-up for this basketball competition. This is a very good experience, in this sukam, we are able to know people with the same hobby and also able to share our experience and skills.
