Anugerah dan juara





Cerita sebegini memang tidak sehangat cerita Anugerah Juara Lagu. Saya melihat timeline twitter saya dipenuhi dengan cerita Anugerah Juara Lagu, yang rata-rata tidak puas hati dengan keputusan. Pelik tetapi benar. Apalah sangat dengan pertandingan lagu bagi saya... yang menerima lagu dari radio dan masuk serta keluar dari telinga kiri ke telinga kanan atau sebaliknya.


Tetapi kalau pertandingan lagu sedunia, teringin juga hendak menumpang gembira atau menumpang duka, kerana ia mewakili jati diri kita sebagai rakyat.


Cerita yang ini kali ini tentang cerita lama yang manis rasanya bagi kita sebagai rakyat Malaysia apatah lagi sebagai seorang Muslim.



SHAH ALAM: Few Malaysians can stake claim to being the best in the world, Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) student Khalid Kamarulzaman is one of
them.
He was acclaimed the ‘World’s Best CAT Graduate’ in the Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) programme. The results were announced in October.

The 19-year-old Faculty of Accountancy student scored the highest aggregate of 474 marks or an average of almost 95 per cent, for five advanced CAT papers.


CAT is an international qualification offered by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), the global body for professional accountants headquartered in the United Kingdom.
The qualification provides the graduate with the necessary knowledge and skills in Finance and Accounting to perform an accounting-support role. It is also designed to fast-track students towards a full-fledged career in accountancy.

Khalid achieved a perfect score in Drafting Financial Statements (T6) and came close in Managing People and Systems (T5) with 98 per cent.


His marks in these two papers were the highest in the world.

He also posted 97 per cent for Planning - Control and Performance Management (T7), 90 per cent for Preparing Taxation Computations (T9) and 89 per cent for Managing Finances (T10).

“It was important for me to shine in this programme as it has placed me on the right path to achieving my dreams so I can help my less fortunate family,” said Khalid in an interview with Varsity Voice on Nov 21.


Although he expected to pass the CAT exams with flying colours, the outstanding results were “...a dream come true, and a tribute to my love for mathematics and numbers”.

The third son in a family of nine siblings from Hulu Langat, Selangor, Khalid has now set his sights on completing another 11 courses in the ACCA programme to become a chartered certified accountant.

“CAT is only the first step. I intend to do just as well in the ACCA examination before gaining work experience and eventually opening up my own accountancy practice.”

“For now, I must be careful not to get too carried away as there is still a lot to learn and a long way to go before I can fulfill my aspirations,” he added.

The CAT programme was first offered by the faculty in 2002 to SPM graduates who had at least five credits, inclusive of Mathematics, Malay and English.

Khalid was recognised as a top student during the Faculty’s Excellence Day on Oct 6, during which he received an award from UiTM’s Vice Chancellor Datuk Professor Dr Sahol Hamid Abu Bakar.
