With famous performers like Taylor Swift and Pop Shuvit in their “Voices of Audio-Technica” artiste series, Audio-Technica has decided to choose none other than Malaysian cutie Karen Kong as the latest star to join in the family! The announcement was made on the 18^th of January 2010 at Plaza OUG where Karen made an appearance with her customized ‘pink’ Audio- Technica microphone. She even managed to show off its sound quality by singing one of her songs.

A little while later, the General Manger of Audio-Technica Malaysia, Mr. Barnabus was invited on stage to exchange gifts with the singer. Congrats to Karen for being the first Malaysian female singer on the list!

Check out what Karen has to say to us!

Year 2010 has been dubbed the year of Creativity and Innovation! And in good time, Tan Sri Dato’ Dr Lim Kok Wing has recently launched Innovation Enabling Transformation - a guidebook on how Malaysia can improve and innovate better based on what we already have. The ceremony was officiated by Deputy Minister of Technology, Science and Innovation, YB Tuan Haji Fadillah Yusof at the Westin Hotel.

By coming out with the book, Tan Sri Lim is encouraging Malaysians to be more innovative in every way to catch up with the fast growing nation and the world. Staffs and students of LimKokWing University made a documentary video, featuring testimonials from students and friends about the journey and influences of Tan Sri Lim. He has one mission, and that is to push innovation to be brought to the front! The event was sealed with a song ‘Wings to Fly’ by LimKokWing International Choir Team. We hear you, Tan Sri Lim!
