2022 A Very Good Year Ahead!

We were asleep in an everyday world and woke up to a whole new world.

We woke up to a Tokyo that was no longer excited for it's Olympics. We woke up to a Singapore that was no longer the hustle & busyness and in Australia where everyone that hugs became a weapon to kill. And Not visiting our parents during festivities are a sign of love instead of being rude and heartless. Everything was so uncertain in this world that money was no longer everything but without money everything was also not possible.
I do not know what and how long more we will have to endure this pandemic that is beyond our wildest imagination but I do know that we need to live our lives and love our lives even more than ever. Things that brought us happiness by being around others was not possible in person but we continued to cherish the possibilities virtually.
We learn that it's not where we spend our time but who we spend it with. I did a whole lot at home and also made a difference for those in need out there with the little that I have. I am sure you did the same too.
We were given an opportunity to reset if we did not do it right in the past. We are able to once again move forward with what we have always wanted or not. It gave us an opportunity to slow down and to get our act together again.
It has been tough and I am sure it still is for many out there. But for as long as we do not stop and have hope for a better tomorrow, we will all win for sure. Together.
I know that it is difficult to stay positive & optimistic with all that we are going through. We are most definitely exhausted by the pain and continuous challenges time and again.
Well we all still have a choice and decision to make the changes we want for tomorrow. I decided to stay positive. I hope you do too and I only wish for you to have a better year ahead for 2022. God bless you all & take care.
Sincerely with ❤️
Ernie Chen

Life will always go on, for it has no reason to stop, but it has the sense to continue. Let's live our life to the fullest while we can.

Life is just too short. We should be living our life in the way that we want and be happy with our decision that we made in our life.

We only live once and never ever regret on the decision that we make.

2022 is going to be a Great Great year 💯

Never regret what you have been through. Everything is an experience for us to break and experience with it. I’m glad that I make the choices by myself with a difference way.

This is our life. Make it difference and enjoy with it. Happy New Year everyone.

Change is the only thing that is constant, sir. And tough times are always inevitable, as humans have always seen challenges ever since they were first created. After each and every obstacle that comes in our way, things change. Whether it is for the better or for the worse, it's in our thoughts and actions.

I choose to stay positive too, sir. But being positive doesn't mean that I am "going with the flow". I decide how things "flow" with a positive mindset.

2022 is ours, sir.

Sometimes life doesnt give you what you want, not because you dont deserve it, but because you deserve more. Hoping the best for 2022.

Another year with PORTMAN EDUCATION GROUP has just ended and now with a whole new year getting closer and closer towards our vision.

Look back from 2014 when I was just a student in PORTMAN College. Till now, I can proudly say that I have no regret for what I have decided and still continuing. I have grown so much and PORTMAN as well, growing continuously even we had many challenges during the journey.

By now everyone should have felt it or some of you should have seen it already that we are not too far to our BIG VISION.
This is a new year and the year of VISIONARY for me. We are 1 day away and now we are even closer to it. Let's hit it and this will be a very exciting year to have a more exciting future for many years! LET"S GO!

With the right planning ahead, with the right and clear directions, it will give us the best result. We can choose and make it , whether start now or later. This new year, we hope we can grow together, become more stronger together.

Happy New Year everyone

In the new year of 2022, no matter what happened last year, we must move on. What you lost last year, you can only make up or move on. What we did last year should be better this year. Don't waste time mourning what we have lost. We must keep going.

A new year, a new beginning! I believe this year will be more exciting than last year!

The pain we feel today will be the strength we fell tomorrow. The happiness of our life depends on the quality of our thoughts. Hence, as a human being we must always stay positive and believe that every cloud has a silver lining.

The future is uncertain and we cannot predict it but we can stay stronger to face the challenges and fight for what we want.
We do not find the happy life until you make it.

May 2022 be the year of success.

It is vital to stay positive, develop action plans for better results and move forward towards a better tomorrow, failing which we will be in the state of inertia with no growth or progress in life or in business. Yesterday can’t be changed but our action today will decide our future for tomorrow. 2022 marks the beginning of a new year and with the economy opening up once more, opportunities will be abundance. The year seems to be much brighter and with strong determinations and the right strategies, growth and success will be within reach.

The sun will set in the evening, but it will rise everywhere just the difference of the direction and time zone, that is the perspective of you either face the darkest or find a way to bring the dawn.

The last two years are the darkest years for every one of us, most people out there give out too soon to stay in the comfort zone, left of the people will give all out to hunt and make things happen, mindset is the main and pain make us stronger and tougher.

We are ready for it ! New Year New Challenge !

Setuju.

Cara hidup kita berbeza antara satu sama lain kerana pengalaman yang mencorakkan kehidupan kita. Kadang-kadang apa yang kita impikan tidak semestinya selalu akan dicapai. Hanya kita yang tahu akan caranya.

Selamat menyambut Tahun Baru 2022 Sifu!

Stay positive , stay blessed and move on. Life is a superb journey. Everyone has a different part of life to go through to reach the destination we desired for. Remember, the journey that we are facing and faced was our choice. Learn from the mistakes and make it better year by year for us to reach to the peak. Happy New Year Mr. Ernie and I pray hard for all in the world to be safe and blessed always.

We know that we have faced a lot of problems in the last two year, but we can stay positive and move on. No matter if every sunset steels one day from our life, but every sunrise gives us one another day to hope!

I hope that 2022 has been a successful year to realize our dreams and rediscover our strengths. Happy New Year everyone.

As long as we do not stop and have hope for a better tomorrow, we will all win for sure. As long as we believe what we does is right, nothing can stop us for doing it. Stay focus and get it done.

We make decisions based on what we want in life. Never hesitate or regret once you make the decision and just go for it. We may have the challenges along the journey, but I always believed every challenge is part of learning experience for us to grow.

Stay positive and amazing things will happen. Happy New Year 2022.

Things will always change non-matter is a thing or human. We just have to believe and make sure we are the better version than yesterday.

Happy New Year and have a great year ahead!

Thank you boss for leading us going through the tough journey.

We are not stopping even though the situation is bad. Because of what Mr. Ernie said, we must keep going until all the competitors die. Now we made it, we are back in 2022 stronger. All the things are lining up, and the stars are really connecting for our big plan.

I am blessed and we will do our best part to grow the organisation together!!

WE ARE JUST ONE DAY AWAY!

As difficult as it was to adapt to these changes in life that was not a choice yet we made it. Changed our routine, our way of living and even the way we process the basic need of living. It was a tough choice yet some good came out of it. These changes that seemed petty at first has kept us going and here we are now, better and stronger. If there is one thing I would be grateful of with all that’s been happening is that I got out of my comfort zone and learned to survive instead of sitting in a corner and whine about it.

Hoping for a new year of shared success!
