Hi all!
This
time my entry will not about my life but a story about an event that
I had went to last Saturday (9th August 2014). The event
is TEDxKL, it was held at Calvary Convention Centre located near with
Bukit Jalil.
I went
there with Mr Lee, Fatin, Murni and Zara. At first I thought the talk
would be the same boring talk about a person that talked about their
life achievement, but at the end I love it and enjoy with the
performance they did.
Let me
share few things about TEDxKL.
TED is
a not for profit organization devoted to Ideas Worth Spreading. TED
was started in 1984 as a small conference bringing together people
from three worlds which are Technology, Entertainment, Design, to
talk about how their ideas come together. Since then, TED’s scope
has become even broader. Along with the annual TEDConference in Long
Beach, California and the TEDGlobal conference in Oxford, United
Kingdom.
This
year theme for TEDxKL is “Open Future”, as it was been chosen
because based upon the realization that we are more empowered and
connected now as a society, and have faster access to knowledge, with
technology at our fingertips. It also about the openness impacting
our lives and how we can use the right selected knowledge to shape
and create the future.
These
were some of the speakers that delivered the talk, Dr. Angelica Lim
(Robotics Scientist), Prof. Balbir Singh (Malaria Detective), Ann
Khoo (Fair Workplace Advocate) and others. We were also been amaze
with the violin performance by Dennis Lau (Violin Virtuoso).
It’s a very good conference where we can motivate ourselves and
learn from the speakers’ experience on how they cope with their
life’s problem and become a successful person.
I would
like to give a special thanks to our boss, Mr. Lee who had given me
an opportunity to go to this kind of event where I can gain a new
experience.
Thank
You,
By, Amir
Saini Marketing Executive.
