Malaysia Students blog will be one-year-old on March 1, 2007 since it was created on March 1, 2006. I still remember the first day when I created Malaysia Students while waiting for my SPM results with the hope to build an online community among Malaysian students. I got the idea to create this blog when I could not find a blog that blogs mainly on academics like SPM and STPM examinations. Since I had had my SPM examination so I thought sharing my experience would benefit some junior students. Furthermore, I believe writing some guides on how to score A1 in certain subjects would be helpful to some SPM students.
It is heartening when a few contributors caught the vision even in the first month of the creation of this blog and joined me to make this blog a team blog. Frankly, Reign226 was one of them and he was the one that had inspired me to put more efforts in building and maintaining this blog. All of his posts are very informative and well-written in good English. Another great contributor is BooNBoX -- a reader and also an active commenter of this blog before he joined us. Of course, all other contributors are great also because they enjoy the spirit of helping others.
As time passes, more contributors joined us. I am very proud to announce that we currently have seven blog contributors including me. More contributors mean more topics to be covered on Malaysia Students blog and it will certainly benefit our readers. The topics blogged on this blog have expanded from SPM to JPA scholarships to STPM to undergraduate awards and to tertiary education. Every time when I logon to my email account and read the new contributor application email, I am excited to welcome the new member to our blog team. It is a fun and exciting experience when we meet a group of strangers with different education background and learn from each others.
Currently, we have over 100 visitors daily and averagely 110 readers through email and feed subscriptions. Readers are our motivation to write more useful posts on this blog. Moreover, readers’ comments and suggestions are always welcomed. We are pleased when our posts receive constructive comments since we know that there are people reading our work and taking time to comment on it, either to provide value-added information or to ask a question.
