Believe it or not, like many other times before (haha) we did it again!

Goodness. It feels like yesterday that we just won the MYNIC Award, but thanks to our committed and hardworking staffs, we now have another reason to smile, celebrate and pat each other on the back, as we adore that sparkling trophy we won from the Malaysia HR Awards recently, now standing proud, joining all other trophies and consuming another space in our Hall of Fame!

Oh yes we still can’t get over our triumph at the memory of the unforgettable, glorious night. The prestigious HR Awards night is actually a yearly event organized by Malaysian Institute of Human Resource Management (MIHRM) since 1999. The awards are highly supported and endorsed by the human resource community. It was officiated by Prof. Dato’. Dr.Ibrahim Ahmad Bajunid, the President of Malaysian Institute of Human Resource Management and witnessed by Yang Berhormat Datuk Dr. S. Subramaniam, Minister of Human Resources, Malaysia.

We were then served with 9 food courses that undoubtedly fed our hungry stomachs! 😛 We were impressed by the way the organizers organize the whole thing, actually. Everything was fast, and organized. The waiters and waitresses were very courteous and professional too, making sure we got everything we needed. It was really the best award night we have attended so far!

And then, it was the moment we were all been waiting for, the main highlight of the night – the presentation of awards. While we were sure it would be an honor just to be nominated, we really did not expect to win considering the tough competition from other outstanding contenders from the big industries like Standard Chartered Bank, Intel Technology, CIMB Group, ASTRO and many others! Furthermore, we were told that winners are selected through a series of careful evaluation process (3 stages to be exact) to ensure the credibility of the award. But believe it or not, we won the Bronze Award under the HR Achievement Category! Look at our happy faces! Haha.
