As a Senior Lecturer at the prestigious University of Malaya, I bring a wealth of expertise in parliamentary behavior and foreign affairs studies, with a particular focus on Malaysia-China Relations, the South China Sea dispute, defense analysis, and international relations. I earned my Doctor of Law degree from Xiamen University, where my doctoral thesis delved into the intricate dynamics of Malaysia-China relations, specifically from the unique perspective of Malaysian parliamentary proceedings. This in-depth analysis provides a nuanced understanding of the diplomatic intricacies between the two nations. My dedication to advancing knowledge is reflected in my scholarly contributions. My academic journey has been guided by a passion for unraveling the complexities of international relations, providing insights that not only enrich the academic community but also inform policymakers and stakeholders. Through my research, teaching, and commitment to academic excellence, I aim to make enduring contributions to the understanding of parliamentary behavior, foreign affairs, and the intricate tapestry of Malaysia's international relationships.
