hobbies

I have been passionate about badminton for many years. In secondary school, I played for my school team and won the men's doubles championship in the district tournament, which allowed me to represent the district at the state level. During my time at polytechnic, I represented my institution in the Malaysia Polytechnic Sports Carnival in men's doubles. I continue to play badminton as a form of exercise during my working life, helping me stay fit and improve my skills.
