20/10/07: The nation’s future involvement in space

I’m sure all our regular blog readers have heard the news that our Malaysian government is seriously considering continuing with manned spaceflight program. First things first. It has been mentioned that if there is a next spaceflight, I will be the one going to utilize the training that I have gone through in the past year. I feel very humbled and honoured to be given this trust, and will as always be ready for what the nation requires of me.On another note, I am thankful enough for all the new knowledge I have learned and all the great experiences I have had since getting involved in the program. They were experience that can’t be bought with money, and I have every intention to share them with the nation and to help the nation achieve our aim of making today’s younger generation of Malaysian the scientists and explorers of tomorrow through the program.I am also very proud to be involved in making the program a success so far, and like millions of other Malaysians, am proud that finally we have joined the small number of nations that have sent their sons and daughters to space.
