Another episode, another long day, assisting them

Today, I was called to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (SPRM) to assist with an ongoing investigation. The instruction to come here came 4 days ago, when I was accopanying my wife for a checkup in KPJ Abdul Samad.

As a result, I had to put aside all my office tasks for the day to fully cooperate with the inquiry. I arrived at the SPRM office at 9:40 a.m. and only left at 6:45 p.m. It was undeniably a long and exhausting day, but it was also a unique and eye-opening experience. Being involved, even peripherally, in such a process offered valuable insight into the procedures and seriousness of institutional investigations in our country.

Research Attachment at Newcastle University

I am very lucky that during my Ph.D, I was able to do my research attachment at Newcastle University from May to June 2012 for 2 months. I was supervised by Prof. Dr. Adam Harvey and Dr. Jon Lee from the Process Intensification Unit, Chemical Engineering Department. During my 2 months stay, my goal was to work on my thermodynamic model for glycerol steam reforming to light olefins. I used combination of Aspen and Matlab software in my efforts to solve the thermodynamic problem.
