Whenever I get the opportunity to address high achievers of the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) and the Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia (STPM), I always stress the need to be humble at all times.
You have nothing to lose by being humble. It doesn’t cost a sen. Being arrogant leads you nowhere. You will only land yourself in hot soup sooner or later. While these students deserve to be congratulated for their achievements, they should also be reminded to be thankful to their teachers and parents.
