A typical day starts with me coming into the office and making a summary of important online news articles from four different online sources. After that, I am typically given an article to research and write about or a translation to do. The rest of the day will be filled with small projects like that. Depending on the day, I will be asked to go to a press statement where I will take pictures of report, even interview those in attendance. After the statement, I will return to MCA headquarters and write up a quick statement which is released online. By the end of the day, I am usually fine tuning articles, subtitles or statements which we fax out to all the various media outlets. My last task is always faxing out statements, so I end the day tapping away numbers into the fax machine. Work with MCA has been an amazing way to learn about Malaysia politics, and while I am still learned a lot I have a pretty good grasp on what is happening politically in this country.
In my time at MCA, there has not been an opportunity for me to get a photo of myself, so here
are two pictures of Professor Heng and I eating durians:
