To date, Dr Raymond shares that the project Epic Homes undertook in the wake of the flood that ravaged Kelantan in 2015 remains one the most significant experience. He recalls the devastation and the amount of work that was needed to assist the Orang Asli community and looks back on the experience fondly. Through the loss and damage sustained by the Orang Asli, he was a part of a selfless team who banded together tirelessly to build homes for the Orang Asli community.
A home is essentially a person’s haven, shelter from life’s trials and tribulations and how incredible it is to be the one who laid down the foundations of this haven. Dr Raymond chooses to spend his spare time by putting laborious hours into building homes for the Orang Asli community despite his day job as a Service Provider Lead at Biomark Pte Ltd. A truly worthy recipient of the IMU Young Alumnus Award 2022 : Contribution to Society.
