Merry X-Mas and Happy New Year to
you all !!!!!!
I do hope you all are happy, healthy
and busy during these days. Many thanks to Ahila for
excellent idea of creating this blog which give us opportunities to share
what is going on after APLP. Yes because
of this we are still connected.
Let me share my adventure life after
APLP.
At the meditation center for two months: Once we finished MFE workshop in Yangon I went back to
Taunggyi, Shan State and took meditation at the Hte Han Sway Meditation center
for two months. By doing meditation I
got the big lesson for my life and I would like to share to you all as these
help me to see the real situation and hinder to overcome the challenges more
easily than before.
"Whenever
we face difficulties never give up easily, be patient and don't look at the things
with greedy or angry then you will see situation clearly and find the way to
do."
Jobs : After meditation center, I back to Yangon, tried to apply
new jobs and busy for the interviews. During waiting for the result I decided
to join back to my existing job at the United Nations World Food Programme in
Yangon office. Within a month in WFP, I got job offered from UNOCHA and
British Council on the same day. I was quite happy and lucky those days. I
decided to join British Council as I would like get change and learn from new
environment. Then I moved to British Council as a Programme Coordinator for
Education in October 2013. Yes of
course, every office has different procedures with different approaches and
also has advantages and disadvantages. Whenever I face difficulties and challenges
at the new job I could see the opportunities from that challenges and happy to
accomplish the job instead of feeling panic. This is the big changed for me
from APLP.
Social supporting activities:I try to share my time especially out of office hours and
weakened to the communities those who need my help or contribution. I could
organize future scenario building workshop to the member of Shan National
Democratic Party together with Mon Mon and Ko Thit Sar. And I provide
leadership trainings to the youths from Shan Literature and Culture Association
in Taunggyi. Base on their need and
requested, I try to link through my networks and connect to them if I do not
have capacity on that field. And try to
contribute and give a hand as much as I can to the Myanmar Disable
organizations as well.
Work-life balance: This is the one I need to improve which I
really focus on work only and could not
manage time for social life as well as
for my professional development.
Miss you all and I do hope to see
you all again.
