Crediting success with attribution has always been the norm rather than the exception. Nothing wrong with that, but being biased or selective towards one’s choice of attributing a success story is an issue that needs to be pondered upon.In many of the functions I attended involving guests of the School of Communication, the senior lecturers would usually attribute the school’s success with celebrated former students. Among famous names flaunted were personalities in the local broadcast scene like Ahmad Fethri Yahya of TV3 and Daphne Iking of NTV7. Politicians maybe a rare breed of the school, but they hardly get any mention.
Well, maybe because she was on the wrong side of the divide or could be she was never given the limelight by the mainstream media, but one personality that recently attracted my attention was Gan Pei Nei.
A persuasive communications major who graduated in 2004, Yang Berhormat Gan Pei Nei is the Rawang state assembly person of Selangor. At 28, Gan is one of the youngest state lawmaker in the Pakatan Rakyat government of Selangor. She won the seat under the Parti Keadilan Rakyat banner in the 12th General Election on 8 March 2008.
Born and bred in Pulau Gadong, Malacca in 1981, she is the second child in a family of three offspring.
