On 6 – 7 April 2021, Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) has organized a research competition know as CITREX 2021 that brings a local congregation of universities together in Malaysia. It is slated to be Malaysia’s most comprehensive local research exposition encompassing all aspects of creation, innovation and technology in engineering and more. The event is an exceptional meeting point for the global researcher community in Malaysia and a yearly platform to monitor and exhibit the outcomes of researches by UMP’s researchers and demonstrate the university’s capability.

For me as a lecturer, this research competition is a way for us to increase the impact of our faculty’s work. It shares research insights that will provide you, income generation and potential of your research, with innovative ideas that you can use. In the research competition that follow, you will gain useful insights that are based on rigorous research and reflect on two questions: What is new in this research? And what are the implications for industry and target market?

I also participated in this research competition by submitting a product entitled “AN ULTRA HIGH FREQUENCY 921 MHZ ARRAY ANTENNA FOR RFID READER” and “HEAT TRANSFER AND FLOW ANALYSIS OF HYBRID NANOFLUID WITH VICSOUS DISSIPATION IMPACT” At the end of the competition, I had won gold medal and Bronze Medal for this product innovation.
