I have discovered that starting a business involves numerous factors to consider, and most importantly, it requires collaborative brainstorming and finding solutions to various challenges in a logical and well-reasoned manner.

I learned the importance of working collaboratively with colleagues to achieve a shared goal, which significantly enhanced my communication skills, particularly in the area of soft skills, beyond simply applying my academic knowledge to real-world tasks.

My vision for the future of ASEAN is a region that thrives on unity in diversity, fostering economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. I hope to see ASEAN become a global leader in innovation and collaboration, where nations work together to address shared challenges while empowering local communities. By strengthening regional partnerships and prioritizing equitable development, ASEAN can build a future that is prosperous, resilient, and inclusive for all.

Take on challenges boldly, think big, stay adaptable, and learn from every experience.
