Ahh, what a fantastic day!

Last night, after our BILT Asia 2018 welcome function, where I consumed 4 tall glasses of beers (I don’t think it measured a pint per tall glass), I received an email from the ICE confirming that I have passed my Technician Professional Review. I thought I was just drunk, but after carefully examining the email from the ICE, I can confirm that it was a legit email and I am now officially a Technician Member of the ICE (well I must pay this year’s membership first, which I did a few minutes ago). This is another key milestone in my career. I am very grateful to everyone who supported (Lead Sponsor Rebecca Archer and my Secondary Sponsor Alex Baalham) and believed (my family of course as my very first supporter) in me on this journey. No words can summarise how I feel right now. The hard work of staying late to complete the application form and carefully selecting the appendices to support the application has now been paid off!

If you are a Technician and looking to be a Technician Member of the ICE, don’t be a procrastinator! If you feel you have enough evidence to demonstrate your competences, go for it.

Good luck for those who will be sitting soon for Technician Professional Review.

More beers tomorrow at Sentosa Singapore after the 2nd day of our BILT Asia 2018 Conference.

Cheers!

Finally arrived in Singapore for BILT Asia 2018 Conference

After for almost 20 hours of flight from London Heathrow Airport to Singapore Airport, we [because I brought my family with me for them to have their holiday while I’m in the conference] arrived sound and safe. Thank you for all our prayer warriors in making our trip safe.

Dealing with the Immigration officer was straightforward. We rented a taxi who delivered us from Singapore Airport to our rented hotel. Whilst on the road, I fell in love with the beauty of Singapore. We did not even encounter any traffic on the road (I should have taken some photos for you to see how beautiful is it traveling on their main highway).

Here are some photos I’ve taken so far:

Then I’ve met some of my fellow speakers in the event and, just like me, most of them are also the first timer in engaging in public speaking. I believe we will all be fine in delivering our respective sessions.
