5. Any most memorable dive experience you’d like to share?
* I prefer big sea critters, so having spent 10 minutes on the seabed next to a big Leopard shark whilst diving in Oman was good. So was being surrounded by barracudas in Sipadan.
* Helped to relocate concrete reef balls and did underwater net clearing – felt purposeful.
* Diving Wrecks – Dived Al Munasser (Omani naval vessel), Coastal freighter, Yacht, Jet skis, Tugs, Barges and Fishing boats.

6. How do you find MUW forum, your current job as MOD, and in which areas do you enjoy best?
The success of this forum will always be a reflection of how MUW members conduct themselves, their initiative and contribution, and efforts in making MUW “real-world” events a success. We have numerous experience technical divers in this forum, hence this lightens my load as a MOD. As most of us are Kuala Lumpur based, I particularly enjoy getting to meet divers face to face.

7. Any areas that you would like to see improved in our diving industry?
I would like to see the Malaysian diving industry and in particular divers to be more safety conscious. Operators need to provide accessible and adequate safety equipment, and divers need to know and adhere to your limits.

8. Can you tell us more about yourself? (working experience, personal interests, families etc..)
Mostly been there, done that and got the t-shirt!!

9. Any other things?
I’m pretty useless with a camera, hence I rely on downloads from my buddies for nice photos.
