Last Friday I went to Universiti Putra Malaysia(UPM) for NACC 2009.
It was organized by Universiti Putra Accounting Club(UPAC) =)
p/s: sorry if this post is boring or what..
i am sleepy now so..hehe..faham faham lar..
try to read finish and in the of the post, vote the reaction okay? =)
This is the
first national conference organized by UPAC. They see the relevance of this conference in developing undergraduate students personally and professionally. This is also a new event to be undertaken by UPAC to promote and increase the awareness of the career path of accountancy among the students. NACC 2009 will also become the platform to provide the latest information on the career world of accountancy profession by communicating and disseminating ideas and promoting best practises and innovation to the university students of accountancy in Malaysia. =)
I was one of the representatives from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia(UKM).
I feel kinda disappointed cause I was hoping there will have maybe 2nd or 3rd year student joining but sadly, most of them were first year and they not even major in Accounting yet. Anyway, at least there are 16 of us going =)
We have out 3rd year senior,
Fiona and
May(Pemaisuri) and 2nd year senior
William,
Charlene and Me.
*winks*While the first year students were
Jennifer,
Rachel,
Susan,
Yau Yau,
Xue Fen,
Xue Bing,
Ang Ang aka Xue Hong and
Ming Yung the piggy. hahaha. I remember their names in 1day time. =p
group picture before the leaving UKM ;) (william was the camera man)
**FIRST DAY**
We arrived UPM around 9am. It took a few minutes for us to go Kolej 16th for registeration. UPM was really big. I think triple bigger than UKM. *ehem ehem*
Did you know, UPM is the largest local university among all the IPTAs in Malaysia? =p
At 11.30m, the Director of NACC, Wong Zheng Long give us introduction about NACC. He look quite blur and his eyes very small. =p
Xue Fen and Rachel
the piggy! not me not me! =p
After that, we have 3 hours break as the muslims went for their prayer. Therefore I contact my matriculation friends(Ann Ying, Tracy and Mei Wen) who studied in UPM to meet me. =)
At 3pm, we wait for UPM bus to go their Faculty of Economic and Management(FPP). But who knows the commitee members failed to get us a bus. We need to sit the usual bus that UPM students took. We waited so long for the bus. We missed a few bus also because there are too many students at the bus stop. *sigh*
taking picture in bus.. XD
When we at FPP, we only able to visit the Career Fair for a short while. I wish i can spent longer time but we have Ice Breaking at Panggung Pecubaan which is just opposite FPP. =)

At night, its opening ceremony of NACC.
*SECOND DAY*
I think it will be quite boring if i tell everything so detail, right?
Plus, I don't have the ability to make attractive sentence.haha.
So, i just state out what Career Talk we had okay? =)
CPA Australia: An Accounting Qualification with Global Recognition, by Mr Edwin Wong
Built your Career in Big Four, by Mr Mohd Muazzam bin Mohamed (Partner of KPMG)
Prospective of Accounting Student in Government Sector, by En Md Hatta Md Jauhar from Jabatan Tenaga Kerja
Overall, what i get from the career talk is something more than I know before this. Like CPA Australia, I don't know it's the largest in Australia and it globally recognised. Besides that, if we passed all the CPA Australia papers then we will automatically registered as MIA members. Also, we will have "CPA" at the end of our name after getting a CPA confirmation. But now, I'm not really interested in CPA Australia althought most of the PWC(one of the big four) has most employer holding CPA. hehe.
While for KPMG, the speaker was good. He basically telling us the advantages of studying in accounting field. And advise us to apply KPMG for internship. They also will provide us study leave if we're employed after graduate and still want to take up professional papers. KPMG hopes all their employee are graduate from chartered professional bodies. Ohya, for the internship, they require at least cgpa 3.00 but of course, the higher is better. Other than cgpa, they also will look for extra curricular activities. And for your information, you need to take their 3 writing papers before shortlisted to get the interview. It's cool. =)
While for government sector, the advantages is we have lots of holidays but the salary not as high as what private accounting firm gave. Through out the career talk on government sector, I realised the hardest task for accountant/auditor/tax consultant is they need to spend ALL the budget which is given. haha! You know why, its because the rakyat give the money, so we must full use it for kebaikan rakyat. Guess that's one of the difference between Private and Government sector. Private want to minimize the cost as low as they can to earn more profit while government sector have to use all the budget given. =)
After listen for Career Talk, we have Dinner Party at Cyberview Lodge and Spa resort. We do have fun that night. Thanks to the commitee members again for organised some fun games for us. They were great. haha. 
the guy in middle is Wong Zheng Long! ;)
*LAST DAY* =(
On the last day, we only have TWO career talk which are:
By Adjunct Professor of FPP
Panel:
Yg Bhg Dato Mohd. Nasir Ahmad, CEO of PUNB
Dato' Nordin Baharuddin, President of MICPA
Dr. Alan Yoon Chung Sin, Alan Yoon Associates
