Augustman Malaysia Magazine - November 2023

In this issue

Join us as we navigate the tumultuous waters of entrepreneurship, learning from the wisdom and fortitude of Bryan Loo's seasoned journey, the visionary endeavours of Alfitry Azmi in democratising batik, and the fun escapades of the Augustman A-Listers at the spirited Ascaro Padel event.
Loo's story, rife with trials and the hard-won wisdom of experience, highlights the invaluable lessons that have shaped his trajectory. Meanwhile, Azmi's commitment to his craft exemplifies the power of passion in fostering cultural appreciation. And lastly, the A-Listers event showcased once again the bond and camaraderie these boys have cultivated through their time in our programme.
While these stories involve hardworking personalities, their pursuits barely feel like work to them. As Maya Angelou wisely observed, “Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.” May we all find something that lights a spark in our lives as well.
Enjoy!
