Yes, it’s been forever. The CEO role does take a lot of time out of your life. I have just been busy with work and family – that’s all to it. My responsibility to God – that goes without saying. But technically over the past 1 year and a quarter, I’ve been sharing all the chapters of the Straight from the Heart book with my family members at the office. But now I’m out of materials to share as finished the sharing. So the scribbles for the sharing series are more free flow and candid – maybe around flavor of...
It’s been forever since I jotted anything at this space. So much has happened since then – good and bad, ups and downs. Among the most significant development in my life is that I’ve started a new leadership journey at a new takaful operator – Takaful Ikhlas Family Berhad. A heavy responsibility as the captain of the ship – to bring takaful to more people out there while building a progressive yet true to heart takaful operator. A dream I hope to achieve with beautiful people around me – my new family at Takaful Ikhlas Family Berhad. One thing I’ve...
Have not managed to write anything much. Life has been more routine than anything else. Spent the long Chinese New Year weekend mainly chilling at home while doing some errands here and there. Fetched my mum over on Saturday to spent the day at home. Other than that mostly the usuals. Ruzain did have an episode on Saturday night – actually Sunday morning at 2am. It’s been a while since he had a meltdown and went on rage mode. It must have been overwhelming for him. Later he spent about 20 minutes crying himself out. I think it’s him feeling sad and bad...
Spent the week traveling up north to Sintok, Kedah for line up of programs with Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM) under the Social Takaful Fund (STF) initiative. It’s been a passion of mine to live the meaning of financial inclusion across all walks of life; young or old, far or near. Food for soul seeing the pieces falling together. It’s never a dull uneventful moment when it comes to programs at UUM. First day was pretty straightforward. Did the closing speech at Do It financial literacy festival. Then followed by launching of the new STF office and meeting room. The meeting...
It’s be a while since I went out for my food for soul activities. Today had the chance to officiate a community centre at a low cost flat housing area that FWD Takaful sponsored. The hard work was put in by our partner Giving Hub and our own Azizi. I just came to do the ceremony or as my wife put it in view of the recent development – the poster boy. At least these days I look like an intellectual one. The handsome part is already not there, but I can really smile, so probably that. A happy Sunday.
