The Author 
Aeronautical graduated turned into mechanical profession, prior being twisted into process engineer job.

Armed with aeronautical engineering scroll in hand, the author rushed in to pursue his life long dream of getting a career in automotive/motorsport. However, the closest he ever get to motorsport career was by emerging as one of five finalist in Renault F1- ALTRAN Engineering Academy. Not capable of winning even when down to the final five, heavyheartedly the author then returned to his homeland to join the national car company. 

Time flies, the author can now claimed an involvement in automotive, aerospace and oil and gas industries, experienced in engineering design,computer simulation, product development and manufacturing with national car company, space satellite company and currently pursuing career in oil and gas company. 

Among the automotive product the author has worked on include Proton Satria Neo, Proton Persona, Proton Gen2 facelift, Proton Saga BLM and some initial work on Proton Exora where his main experience was mainly in the engineering design with major involvement from initial conception to mass production. The author was also involved in the design analysis of automotive engine (awkwardly in oil and gas company) where his responsibility was mainly on stress analysis, thermal simulation, CFD and modal evaluation. On the aerospace front, the author was involved in the R&D of national space satellite.

At the moment, the author is pushing his luck in the arena of oil and gas R&D while attempting to remain in touch with his automotive-loving heart by car-blogging, thus the existence of MALAYSIA MOTORING NEWS.
