Johor Bahru, home sweet home

Published by cyza under Blogging ~ Sharring

I’m very glad to be home after 2 days in Singapore, attending the German-Singaporean Research Symposium on Catalysis. It was a very fruitful event for me. Among the highlights were during our visit to Institute of Chemical Engineering Science (ICES) in the high security area at Jurong Island. I’m very impressed with their dedication in research as well as their state of the art equipments and facilities.

After a hald day visit to ICES, we went to visit Nanyang Technological University (NTU). We visited few departments and the first was Chemistry, Mathematics and Physics department. NTU too have advanced equipment and facilities. Their labs are very impressive and I can see that Singapore government really don’t mind investing billions of dollars to improved their research, engineering and sciences ability.

Stressed and Tension in Singapore

Published by cyza under Blogging ~ Sharring

As I’m writing this post I’m in Nanyang Education Center (NEC), Nanyang Technological University, staying alone with my white Toshiba laptop. I’m in Singapore attending a Catalysis Engineering Symposium.

I’m writing this post purely to release my tension on preparing a technical paper to be submitted to a local conference held this coming December. The paper must be submitted in 1-2 days time. I’m very exhausted mentally and physically, but this task need to be completed ASAP.

Oh… I just want to sleep now… or should i drink my hot coffee which i just prepared now?

I missed my country… In Malaysia, I can pray easily anywhere… ;(
