00:48 Most probably animation, virtual reality, or design stuff.
00:54 But yeah, I already have a background in computer science.
00:57 So I think I'm confident in venturing the other places
01:02 as well.
01:02 I got a lot of information that I needed.
01:05 And most of the staff here are actually quite professional,
01:09 especially for their explanation,
01:11 their information, everything.
01:13 I really love this place.

01:20 Programming is an essential skill set at this point of time.
01:24 I think in the next coming years,
01:25 we will see a lot of students.
01:27 And in fact, future graduates will
01:28 require the skills of programming,
01:31 because they're going to need to solve a lot of problems
01:33 in the industry.
01:34 Whether you're an engineer, whether you're a manager,
01:37 whether you're a person in the computer science background,
01:40 programming is going to be very critical.
01:42 Compared with the four areas of STEM,
01:43 I think technology is most important.
01:45 The world is moving so fast now.
01:47 And technology is evolving.
01:49 So I think students should actually
01:51 be very, very technology-centric.
01:53 And one of the best ways to get involved
01:55 in that, in fact, even in maths, is programming.
01:59 So far, I can see a lot of our students
02:02 are going towards the art section, broadcasting,
02:06 game development.
02:07 I think a lot of our students are
02:09 more interested in that side.
02:10 I see one or two of them are interested in medical.
02:13 But a lot of them are going towards the arts program.
02:16 Actually, we are looking for students
02:18 who have requirements such as five credits,
02:22 as stipulated in our symbol of Malaysia.
02:25 And correct personality to be a good nurse.
02:28 And also, the student who have insight, confidence,
02:32 patience, and also they keen to learn.
02:36 First, have an interest.
02:37 And they have a passion to serve the others.
02:40 And with that, then they could actually
02:42 explore the different kinds of fields
02:45 related to medicine, dentistry, or nursing, and so on and so
02:47 forth.
02:48 If a student who didn't get a very good grade,
02:51 there are actually some other opportunities,
02:52 like being a dental surgery assistant.
02:55 And also, the diploma in dental technologies.
02:57 And they are the one behind the scene that many of us
03:00 actually didn't recognize that they're actually
03:02 part of this dental team as well.
03:04 One of the discussion areas that Hanson Canada and Lim Kong
03:09 Wing Universities are trying to explore and find
03:13 a feasible solution for our students
03:15 would be for the students to be able to study in both Malaysia
03:21 as well as Canada.
03:22 Education itself is important.
03:25 However, when you add the international element to it,
03:28 it will allow every student to be able to travel and learn
03:33 at the same time.
03:34 Because life journey is only meaningful
03:38 when we are on this pursuit of purpose and meaning.
