Be able to work independently is a key factor too. To a certain extent, it is undeniable that it is a 'lonely' journey. Nevertheless, I am so lucky that I am not alone along the way. My supervisor, Ir Dr Khoo Hooi Ling, is a good companion to me. Her persistent guidance and spirit have helped me a lot. Definitely, she has played a significant role in my research.

Besides, I am so fortunate to have some good friends who are very considerate and always stand by my side. Their understanding, patience and supports really meant a lot to me. I appreciate that wholeheartedly.

For those who are still struggling to achieve the pinnacle of success: Don't be afraid and keep on fighting till the end! What you will gain eventually will be definitely more than what you could expect!
