See all the 15 finalists here

I'm happy they are doing good in this world. أحسن عملا [Q67:2], عملا صالح [Q18:110] For Malaysia, I believe if the nation wants to excel in science, it's really about supporting the talents. Not about the language, these kids are probably smart enough to transcend languages anyway. What they need is the support & pathways for them to grow. تفسحوا [Q58:11], فهو يقضي بها ويعلمها [SM4.1779]

BTW I really hope society channels money for research & aid والباقيات الصالحات [Q18:46]

An engagement ring donated to raise funds, launched the very first appeal for Marie Curie Memorial Foundation − a charity dedicated to alleviating suffering from cancer. [web] الحمد لله

If I may say, & if anybody cares ha ha... I believe a high class nation is when its own people is able to provide high quality services to each other in the nation. When a nation have its own specialists, engineers, tailors, shoemakers, chefs, farmers etc... all its citizens are professionals in their own ways - the nation can sustain a high class lifestyle bcoz they're driving that lifestyle themselves.

This is where investing in the people is vital to the nation.

If we train our young to be competent specialists, in the future they can give professional service to the nation & train the next generation of specialists. The key is in training a pioneer batch - seeds that grows into trees & birth other seeds. For this to be successful we need good seeds that can grow well & understand this is not about personal glories, but for giving service to the nation, train & build groundworks for future generations to continue.

I wish we can give support & investment to such people.

Wishing every nation, success. May Allah SWT bless us. ♥

I seek refuge in Allah SWT from errors.
Only Allah SWT Knows Best والله أعلم

Congratulations Roya Mahbood and Afghan Dreamers [robotics team, video] الحمد لله

"... when the governor of Herat put out a public plea for more ventilators, five young women answered the call. This team consists of five Dreamers aged between 14 and 17; captain Somaya Faruqi, Dyana Wahbzadeh, Folernace Poya, Ellaham Mansori and Nahid Rahimi. Ms Mahboob has been working with them for about a year."

Congratulations Maryam Muzamir, 11 [livestock feed, video] الحمد لله

"... formulated a new form of livestock feed made out of ground shrimp and sea snail shells ... earned her three prestigious awards at the recently-concluded International Invention Innovation Competition (iCAN) in Toronto, Canada ... the gold medal, the Canadian Special Award, as well as the coveted Best Young Inventor Award at iCAN 2021 ...

The idea came about from one of her family trips to the seafood restaurants that line the coastline there. She observed just how much waste was being produced from these eateries, in particular the amount of shells being dumped. After chancing upon an article that said seafood shells contain the compound chitin, and its benefit towards livestock, she set about to execute the groundbreaking conception."

Congratulations Hanadi Abu Harbid, 23 [food dehydrator] الحمد لله

"... The idea of the project, which is the first of its kind in Palestine, is to dry agricultural foods such as fruits, vegetables and herbs with solar energy ... locally made drying equipment would save many agricultural products ... cheaper than the imported items since the production costs are lower ... no added sugar or any chemical treatment ... preserves the nutritional value of the food items in a way that is energy efficient ..."

يا غلام إني أعلمك كلمات
احفظ الله يحفظك
احفظ الله تجده تجاهك

إذا سألت فاسأل الله
وإذا استعنت فاستعن بالله

واعلم‏‏ أن الأمة لو اجتمعت
على أن ينفعوك بشيء
لم ينفعوك إلا بشيء
قد كتبه الله لك

وإن اجتمعوا
على أن يضروك بشيء
لم يضروك بشيء
إلا بشيء قد كتبه الله عليك
