Assignment: Gamuda Airlines Malaysia Scholarship
I want the scholarship essay which requires minimum 300 words. I have attached the essay instructions in jpeg file below. The extract of the requirements are: 1)A good command of English, leadership qualities, right values and character, drive and a commitment to excel. 2)Gained acceptance into any reputable institution (i.e. top universities in Malaysia/the world) at time of interview to pursue a full-time first degree programme 3)Must show proof of financial need 4)Willing to serve the Gamuda Group for a specified period upon graduation (http://gamuda.com.my/gamuda-scholarship/)
Being a Malaysian, I recognize Malaysia’s need for home-grown skills and talent in the shape of planers (professionals with solutions) and seekers (those in dire need) collaborating towards sustainable development. I fall into both categories. Coming from a single parent family, my biggest challenge is helping to improve the lives of the impoverished through good morals, governance, and sustainable development. The need for problem solvers capable of using cross-disciplinary and cross-jurisdictional strategies to solve multifaceted challenges is critical for the country. This has prompted my application for the Gamuda Scholarship.

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to transform lives in my community. Indeed, I have taken part in various volunteering programs focused towards helping those in need and the environment, such as representing my secondary school in planning of International Coastal Clean-up Singapore 2014 with Beatty Secondary School (Singapore) and the representatives from National University of Singapore (NUS) volunteers, and various programmes such as Sikh Flag Day to raise funds for disadvantaged people in the community. To attain my goals and dreams, I realize that I must successfully complete my college education and this begins with attaining this scholarship. I am very excited and hopeful about my future prospects and feel that the chance your scholarship will facilitate, I will be able to change lives all over Malaysia, and even the Asian continent.

I have currently being offered and accepted Bachelor of Business and Commerce Undergraduate programme from Monash University Malaysia, which is starting in July 2018, and I am looking for scholarship support to continue with my studies. The scholarship will help me to pursue my dream of advancing my field of study through research and collaboration with other professionals. I am adamant about continuing my education until I have earned the highest possible credentials. I am passionate, hardworking, and dedicated to becoming a future problem solver for my country. Indeed, I believe that will bring a unique and much-desired perspective to my graduate program in Malaysia, and I will take the technical and theoretical knowledge from my education program to transform lives.

Furthermore, my competence in other areas such as linguistics is evident in my mastery of 3 languages, namely English, Chinese and Japanese, and having certifications such as HSK (Chinese Certification accepted by the Chinese Government) Level 6 (the highest level in HSK) in top 20th percentile, JLPT (a Japanese Language Proficiency Examination) N2 Level with full marks and A1 grade in Japanese in GCE O Level, as well as taking 100% English-medium educational programmes and examinations, namely GCE O Level and GCE A Level.

My love for education has been encouraged by my friends and family, who had supported me all the way, even when things were very tough and seemed hopeless. I have had the opportunity to volunteer and have internships at various organizations, such as Jiangsu Huanli Technology Co. Ltd. and Aimhouse Hotel Bangkok, and this has given me profound knowledge. The combination of this knowledge and my education will help to be a great contributor to Malaysia’s economic development. I was also involved in NUS Research Institute Scientific Research and Entrepreneurship Programme, which helped me equip and internalize entrepreneurship concepts. I have received Huanli-Jiujiang Educational Foundation Bursary, which recognizes students from humble family backgrounds and their achievements. My family has catered for me throughout my lifetime, and I try to chip in; however, I can. Regrettably, my family cannot afford to finance my education as my mother, the sole breadwinner of my family, will be unemployed after this month; therefore, I hope to use my knowledge and skills to help to pay for my college education…

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS

Discussion Questions (DQ)

• Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.
• Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.
• One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.
• I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

Weekly Participation

• Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
• In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
• Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
• Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

APA Format and Writing Quality

• Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
• Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
• I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.

Use of Direct Quotes

• I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.
• As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.
• It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

 

LopesWrite Policy

• For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.
• Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.
• Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own?
• Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.

Late Policy

• The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.
• Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.
• If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.
• I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.
• As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.

Communication

• Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me: 
  • Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.
  • Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
