Why Do You Deserve This Scholarship?
Why Khazanah Scholarship is for you?
My first word was “Gajah” or elephant in Malay. However, that does not mean I am destined to be a zoo vet. As I grew up, airplanes in the blue sky always fascinated me. How the airplane flied overwhelmed me for years.
Since that, my journey in the science world began. I then started playing with
Lego, a line of construction toys and enjoyed building. Throughout my school years I had triumphed in many robotic competitions and science fairs. My passion of building stuffs advanced until today. Now, I am experimenting with open-source electronics and learn coding in C++ with a vision of making a low-cost home automation system that can be installed in every home thus people will have more time to spend with families and friends as robots has took over the house chores.
To enhance my knowledge in robotics, I need to have a degree in
Electrical and Electronics Engineering. College is a time for new and exciting experiences as well as a time to explore diverse and innovative ideas. What could be better than traveling to a foreign country to learn about their ideas, history, and culture? I believe study abroad is something that college students should do to help avoid ethnocentrism, to expand their horizons, and to appreciate everything the world has to offer. In this case, I would love to pursue my degree in Pennsylvania State University in the United States of
America.
I need to go to college so that I can continue to grow, mature and learn.
I need to go to college so that one day I can be an adult capable of strength in the face of adversity, capable of giving back to the community, capable of being an example to other. I don't expect the college experience to magically transform me into a wise and all-knowing adult. But I am relying on it to help me explore the world of ideas.
Due to my academic credentials, leadership skills, co-curricular accomplishments, I am an excellent candidate for this Khazanah

    Right now I am attending Polk State Collegiate High School in order to obtain my Associate of Arts degree while I am still in high school. One of the main reasons that I am attending Collegiate High School, besides to get ahead is because I have no college funds.

    Since, I played four sports, it was hard to just focus on one. Sometimes I would have to come in early for one sport and stay after school for another. I really had to manage my time wisely. I am proud to say that I have been on the A honor role every year since freshman year. This was a goal I had since I was a child. I always wanted to be a straight A student and when I would do bad on something, I would study it until it was perfect. I think I should be considered for this scholarship because I have great leadership skills in everything that I do. I show leadership in sports by giving 110% in practice off and on the court or field. I lead by example and have a very strong worth ethic. No matter where I am put in any sport, I give it my all.…
