Career switch proves therapeutic


FOR most people, switching careers can be a traumatic experience as it involves meeting new people, learning a new set of skills and trying to impress the boss all over again.  

This did not deter Malacca-born lass Amanda Chan, though. Never one to shy away from change, Amanda has tried her hand at a number of jobs, including writer and then editor for publishing companies, trade finance officer in a bank and campaigner for women's rights with a local NGO, since she graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Arts and Social Science from Universiti Malaya in 1986.
