Finance and Account--Posting

Posted by TraCy at 3:52 PM

Following my new recruitment to the Foreign Ministry, I am now officially attached to the Budget Unit of the Finance and Account Division. A person with zero background in finance and account, being posted to such division, managing budgets of a ministry/106 Malaysian Missions abroad...ermm...

To me, Finance and Account = figures
I could recall since I finished my STPM, I hardly exercise any complex mathematics; well...maybe...or perhaps only during my foundation studies of statistics during the universities?? But even in that subject itself, everything is computerized. Now, I found myself in an awkward situation.

It would definitely be a new path for me. I am not a person who would easily give up on things I never tried. It is indeed challenging for me thou; as I hate finance, banking and account sooooooooo much.....First of all, I must learn to love it =P

To be honest to myself, I could feel like I am drowning and suffocating when I first received my 'desk-posting' order. Yet, I wish to extend my sincere gratitude to Dato' Melanie and Dato' Rohana, the two iron ladies. Thank you very much for all the encouragements, inspiration and motivations! Yes, finance and budget might not sound to be in the front line of the Foreign Ministry, it is the backbone of the entire organization. Nothing moves without good management of finance ;) and I strongly believe that this experience would fill up the 'loophole' of my educational background...towards real multitasking job~~Cheers!!!
