Soccer, playing the guitar and love driving.
I am active and love sports. The one sport that i am passionate about is soccer. I can also talk about it with someone who is equally passionate about soccer. I also love playing the guitar, as that was the first instrument that i picked up and love learning how to play other instruments too. The one area that I also love to do is driving, especially on long drives, where it clears my mind or even giving someone a lift, as i find it a ministry that GOD has given me to serve.
Additional Information
- I was a MCST chairman for 2 years from 2021-2023.
- I got active with the Grassroots in Canberra and was part of the Covid Package distributing team during the Covid period.
- I joined the Grassroots, Skylife Resident Network in 2020 and contributed in many community projects once the Covid restrictions were lifted.
- Currently, I am the Chairman of the Skylife RN for my community.
- I also volunteer at the Meet-People-session (MPS), as a writer. Together with my Canberra Advisor, MP Dr Lim Wee Kiak, I meet residents and listen to their appeal or feedback and draft out letters to be sent to the respective Government Agencies.
- My goal is always to bring the church to the community, so that there is an opportunity to show the love of Christ to the people.
