Matthew loves buses, and if his room-cum-bus-museum is not able to convince you, Matthew turned down three university offers to be a bus interchange supervisor. His passion for all things bus-related extends to his daily work serving customers and assisting bus drivers in operations.
Taufiq is a firm believer that it is more important to know where you are heading than where you come from. Using his profession as a barber, he creates new haircuts and avenues for those neglected by society. Julianah was a self-professed whiny kid and a career in the armed forces seemed unlikely. That was until she found meaning as a guide and mentor to young recruits where they can in turn find their vocation in life.
