Proposal Approved!

Hi,

Just to share my happiest moment after one year of PhD candidacy, my research proposal was finally approved by the Divisional Research Management Committee. This news was relayed to me by Dr. Ian Clark , my supervisor through an emailed today.

Syukur to the Almighty!

Now I can full steam on my research-to borrow Ian's words.

Preparation for Site Survey

Hi..

I've not been posting new stories for the past couple of weeks. Or ever since I submitted my research proposal and ethics application to UniSA end of June. I've been regularly keeping updates to my group, myparks, an online community of park management fratenity in Malaysia. Membership as of today is 76! Keeping myparks a lively discussion group is indeed my goal. And of course this blog too!

While I've been reading and updating local literature, I've made some prelimenary correspondence with local authorities in Kuala Muda, Kedah, my site area. I'll be going there on the 19 til 26 August 2005. I'll update my stories while I'm on site later this month.
