From Star scholars to tax pro


My brother, Lim Wei Jie and I, Wei Shun, would like to express our sincere gratitude to Star Media Group (SMG) for awarding us the Star Education Fund scholarships and supporting us throughout our academic journey.

The award provided us with valuable financial support and encouragement, which enabled us to focus on our studies and strive for greater academic achievements.

We are proud to share that both of us successfully graduated with First Class Honours from SEGi University and were subsequently awarded First Class Honours by the University of Central Lancashire.

We are pleased to share that both of us serve as tax professionals at PwC Acceleration Center Kuala Lumpur, a joint venture between PwC US and PwC Malaysia, and part of PwC’s global talent hubs that bring together diverse, highly skilled talents to work on complex client engagements. The opportunities and support we received throughout our education have played an important role in helping us reach where we are today.
