The joy he finds in reading, especially the Harry Potter Book Series and Jin Yong’s Novels, is perhaps the only contender for his love for Wantan Noodle. ​Some recognise him for his intellectual prowess, others for his involvement in a multitude of projects, with a spice of volunteerism and a sprinkle of mooting. Yet, behind his formidable achievements lies a kind, compassionate and dedicated character who constantly strives to gain new experiences.
