Olivia Lum

Ha... Dun get me wrong. She's not my gf. But i dun mind to be her god son. whahaha.... Hyflux is her brainchild. She is one of the most capable lady in Singapore, probably after Jenny Chua from Raffles Holdings and Mrs Lee from Temasek Holdings.

I wanted to head on to bed when i suddenly remembered a documentary on Olivia. I was inspired by her route to success. She was a poor student in Msia, with only 10 US dollars, she came to Singapore all alone. She strived very hard and made it. Her excellent results landed her a job with GSK. Wah...

As an ambitious person, she decides to strike it out on her own. I am amazed by the courage she had. She said, if that is ever an oppt, do not be afraid to take it up. Move forward and do the best out of it. There are lots of obstacles, but perseverence will pay off eventually.

I am so IMPRESSED. That sets me thinking. No matter how hard, i should give it a try to take a step forward. There might be setbacks, so take it with stride. It's hard. I know. If she can do it, why not me? ha... I will label her as my next idol. Miss Lum, any jobs for me?
