A.D.A.M. by Ramlee Awang Murshid

I am an Indonesian and this book is written by a Malaysian author.

Indonesia and Malaysia are two neighbouring countries whose traditional cultures have many similarities, but during the journey of the world, a lot of different things that happened in the lives of the two countries that made them grow differently.

I love this book because by reading it, I came to an understanding that cultures are often forgotten in our lives that have become so uniformly 'modern'. However, the values taught by our parents, teachers and society can be preserved by our own will and effort.

This book is also a good reminder that being highly-skilled alone is often enough to survive, but not to surface as a solid personality. We need to prepare ourselves to be a person who is skillful, ethical and smart, to maintain our credibility and independence as a human being.

A great read for positive motivation!
