# 8 Life Lessons To Learn From Amber Chia, The Malaysian Supermodel-Turned-Entrepreneur

The local modelling industry is extremely competitive, but Amber Chia certainly has striked it big.

Her career started to bloom after she won the 2004 Guess Watches Timeless Beauty Contest.

This made her become the first Asian model to triumph at global model searches as well as the first Asian model to campaign for Guess Watches globally.

Amber started her modeling career at 17, and her winning has gained her international exposure as she was then approached by companies to do magazine shoots, runways, movies and TV shooting.

Besides that she was handpicked by Victoria Beckham to present the Victoria Beckham Autumn/Winter 2009 Ready to Wear Collection during the glamourous New York Fashion Week.

Having such achievements, naturally people would want to know your success story.

That being said, we decided to do some research on Amber's story and picked up some life lessons we can apply on daily life.

## 1. Tough times don't last, tough people do.

When she was eight, her family shifted from Sekinchan in Kuala Selangor to Tawau in Sabah in the hopes of having a better future.

However she had to be taken care by her foster parents because her birth parents were unable to support her.

When Amber turned 12, she moved back to Tawau to help her family.

During an interview with iMoney, she revealed, "I worked two jobs from the age of 12.

I started out helping my dad to sell fish in the market from 3am, then go to school until noon, and work the night shift at the pub as a cashier, which usually ends about 12am."

Today Amber is a household name in the modelling industry, she has appeared in over 300 magazine covers, runways in 6 continents, acted in 7 movies, and appointed as brand ambassador for over 30 brands.

The 33-year-old woman is not just a supermodel and actress, but also a mother and a successful businesswoman.

## 2. Never let life impede on your ability to manifest your dreams.

When Amber turned 17, she booked a one way trip from Tawau to KL with only RM 300 in her pocket, despite the opposition from her family.

At that time, her mother saw there were some eligible bachelors and Amber was pressured to get married.

"But I was not interested in marriage and I had a boyfriend.

I knew I had to do something to pursue my dream.

So I ran away," said Amber during an interview with Cosmetic Surgery and Beauty.

Things were not always in smooth sailing.

Due to her qualification, Amber kept getting turned down for jobs more than 20 times before she landed her first job.

She shared, "I did not know how to dress up, how to wear make-up and I did not speak English.

So I knew I had to take courses in make-up, grooming and in English."

Being a model, mother, and principle of Amber Chia Academy, she never lets her busy schedule to be an excuse of upgrade herself.

"I'm currently taking up an English Language course, and I hope to get my A-Level certification one day.

I don't believe it's ever too late to learn," Amber shared during an interview with iMoney.

## 4. Keep your dream alive when the going gets tough.

She has the resilience to continue her journey to become a top model and she also managed to keep her dream alive despite facing numerous rejection.

Every successful person has doubted themselves in one form or another throughout their career.

It was quite a hard time for Amber when she came from Tawau to KL.

With so much rejection, she thought she was not going to make it.

Nonetheless, she put in effort to improve herself.

She shared, "I knew that I was not getting modelling jobs because I lacked certain qualities.

I also knew it was not going to be easy.

I stuck it out because I believed in my dream.

It was three years before I got my first big break – which was to be on the cover of Her World magazine in 2001."

## 5. Help others achieve their dreams along the way.

Amber has been in the modeling industry for the past 16 years.

Back then before she started her career as a model, she had zero knowledge about the modeling industry.

"I did not know a thing about modeling when I started out in the industry as a teenager.

I wish there was a guidebook that I could have referred to back then," she said, quoted by The Star Newspaper.

Of course, Amber knows the importance of giving back.

For her case, she contributed back to the industry by setting up her own modeling academy to help people who want to join the industry but don't know how and where to begin.

Furthermore, she wrote a book earlier last year titled "Guide to a Successful Modeling Career" which was filled with practical advice from Amber herself dedicated to women who are interested to pursue modeling as a career.

## 6. Stay humble, because we are all equal.

One key rule to be successful is to always be humble and do not ever let money or fame get to your head.

Amber is beyond friendly, down to earth, and completely gracious.

Hideaki of Celebs Blogger characterised Amber as someone who has a "approachable nature and bubbly personality" which makes her an instant hit with anyone that meets her.

A blogger who goes by the name Junipers Journal said that Amber was wonderfully down-to-earth and easy to interview.

If you happens to be one of her followers, you can see that Amber always try her best to reply fan mail, even if she doesn't, she will click likes on most of the comments on her Facebook page.

Amber's father was a fisherman and her mother was a homemaker.

Amber did not have everything handed to her on a silver platter.

All she had was her strong will and determination, which she acquired since she was young.

She shared during an interview with Cosmetics Surgery and Beauty, "I have never been ashamed of my background or my family.

They made me strong and gave me strong work ethics.

My parents always taught us that if we need something in life, we have to work hard to get it."

## 8. Live life with no regrets because at one point everything you did was exactly what you wanted.

Travel is an essential part of being a model.

Amber has quite a career as a model as she had to travel to many places to do shoots and runways.

During an interview with Esquire Malaysia, she was asked whether she misses the travelling.

Amber had this to say, "Although there was money, fun and travel, I kept moving.

But my son, my family, my business—those are going to be around me forever, even when I'm old and ugly.

That's something more sut tsai (substantial)."

(meta data) TITLE: J.J. Watt, Jared Allen, Jake Long among NFL's best linemen - NFL.com

# J.J. Watt, Jared Allen, Jake Long among NFL's best linemen

Ten rookies drafted in Round 2 or later primed to make an impact in Year 1

The midpoint of the season is almost here, and folks are no doubt preparing lists of first-half all-stars.

While they'll have a relatively easy time picking out the best quarterbacks, receivers and running backs, I thought I'd lend them a hand and round up the top offensive and defensive linemen so far this year.

I've ranked the five best offensive and defensive linemen according to how they've played thus far this season.

I've also listed the top five up-and-comers on each side of the ball, based on both game tape and future potential.

On the defensive side of the ball, I included some outside linebackers, since they share similar pass-rushing responsibilities to their D-line brethren.

There are a high number of quality linemen in the NFL, and some very good players were left off these lists.

I tried to forget the players' reputations -- dismissing what I already knew about these guys -- and just rank them according to how they've performed on the field in 2012.

1. J.J. Watt, DE, Houston TexansWatt, who has 18 pressures and a league-leading 9.5 sacks, is a pass-tipping machine; he's caused four interceptions with his ability to get his fingers on the ball.

Watt has long arms, very strong hands and a rare combination of speed, strength and athletic ability.

He's an early favorite to be the Defensive Player of the Year in 2012.

2. Jason Pierre-Paul, DE, New York GiantsA third-year player who burst onto the scene with 16.5 sacks in 2011, Pierre-Paul has continued his quarterback-harassing ways, collecting 4.5 sacks and forcing one fumble through the first seven games of the season.

3. DeMarcus Ware, LB, Dallas CowboysA former high school receiver, Ware has accumulated 106 sacks and 30 forced fumbles through eight seasons, and the likely Hall of Famer hasn't shown any signs of slowing down.

In six games, Ware has 6.5 sacks and three forced fumbles.

He has a great first step and can play in space at times.

4. Geno Atkins, DT, Cincinnati BengalsAtkins underachieved somewhat at Georgia, but those days are behind him.

Very powerful and quick, Atkins has seven sacks in seven games this season after totaling 7.5 in a breakout 2011 campaign.

5. Jared Allen, DE, Minnesota VikingsLike a big wind-up toy, Allen never slows down.

The veteran, in his ninth season, is a big reason that the Vikings are 5-2.

He has six sacks in 2011, bringing his career total to 111.

1. Aldon Smith, LB, San Francisco 49ersAfter collecting 14 sacks in his rookie season, Smith continues to improve and has learned to play the run a lot better in 2012.

Smith, who has 5.5 sacks this season, possesses great speed and a quick first step for a pass rusher.

14th overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, Quinn has already surpassed last season's sack total (five), racking up seven through the first seven games of 2012.

Quinn, who can also block kicks, has a great first step, long arms and can run the 40-yard dash in less than 4.7 seconds.

3. Chandler Jones, DE, New England PatriotsThe

rookie has been much better as a pro than I thought he was going to be, forcing three fumbles and posting 5.5 sacks while starting every game in 2012.

Jones has very long arms and can play the run.

4. Henry Melton, DT, Chicago BearsOne of the best running backs to ever play high school football in the Dallas area

, Melton also spent two years as a ball carrier at Texas before switching to defensive tackle.

Melton is nearing his sack total from 2011 (seven) after just seven games this season, collecting 4.5 so far.

He has unbelievable athletic ability and the quickness needed to succeed.

5. Gerald McCoy, DT, Tampa Bay BuccaneersMcCoy battled injuries through the early part of his career, but he's found success this season, starting all six games so far and notching three sacks and one forced fumble.

McCoy is very quick and disruptive; he needed to add more strength, and did so.

1. Duane Brown, T, Houston TexansBrown is a very good run blocker who also has yet to give up a sack or a hurry this season.

A very athletic and smart player who's gotten a lot stronger, Brown was just the second offensive lineman in Texans history to start all 16 games of his rookie campaign back in 2008.

2. Ryan Clady, T, Denver BroncosClady is as reliable as they get, having started 70 straight games for the Broncos.

The strong and athletic Clady does well in the run game, and has not given up a sack or a hurry this year.

3. Carl Nicks, G, Tampa Bay BuccaneersThe very strong fifth-year player has been worth every penny he got in the $47.5 million, five-year contract he signed with the Bucs last offseason.

Nicks excels as a run blocker and has yet to allow a single sack or hurry.

4. Joe Thomas, T, Cleveland BrownsThomas has good athletic ability and knows where to put his hands.

The durable veteran (he's started every game for six years) does not make mistakes: He's given up just two sacks and been called just twice for holding all season.

As is true of most of the offensive linemen on this list, Thomas has long arms, which help him fend off defensive linemen.

Arm length is very important for the position, because it's one of the few quantifiable indicators of future success.

» Getting to know the men behind the masks

5. Jake Long, T, Miami DolphinsLong has come up big for rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill, allowing just two sacks this season in six games.

One of just three offensive linemen to be selected first overall in the NFL draft since 1967 (the Dolphins picked in him in 2008), Long has great athletic ability, strength and length.

1. Sebastian Vollmer, T, New England PatriotsA very big man (listed at 6-foot-8, 320 pounds) with good feet and long arms, Vollmer has allowed just one sack and one hurry this season.

The Patriots have done a lot to make the German native stronger in the four years that he's been in the NFL.

2. Mike Iupati, G, San Francisco 49ersNiners offensive line coach Mike Solari gets credit for developing Iupati, a powerful and large (6-5, 331) man with long arms who has become a huge asset in the run game in his third year as a pro.

He's a big reason why the 49ers (who ranked eighth with 127.8 rushing yards per game in 2011 and are second with 176.6 per game this season) have had such success on the ground.

3. Alex Mack, C, Cleveland BrownsMack, a very strong, quick and smart fourth-year center, very seldom allows the man he's blocking to make a play.

Like his linemate Thomas, the big-handed, long-armed Mack is durable and reliable, having started 55 consecutive games.

He hasn't allowed a sack or hurry this season.

4. Tyron Smith, T, Dallas CowboysCowboys offensive line coach Bill Callahan, who is one of the best in the business, told me before a recent game that Smith, a second-year man playing his first season at left tackle, is the real deal.

Smith has very long arms and big hands (36.5 inches), and is an excellent athlete with good work habits.

The five false-start penalties he's incurred.

5. Nate Solder, T, New England PatriotsA one-time high school tight end, Solder (the 17th overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft) has put in a lot of effort to add core strength.

Solder is very athletic and smart, and has great work habits.

He's versatile (can play left or right tackle) and will be around for a very long time.

He's given up just two sacks this season.

Ansah originally went to BYU with the intention of being a track athlete, but he started playing football in 2010 and hasn't looked back since.

The 6-foot-5 1/2, 270-pound middle linebacker most likely will be a defensive end prospect, and could be a top-50 player.

The son of Howie Long and brother of St. Louis Rams defensive end Chris Long, Kyle Long doesn't start, but he does contribute to the offensive line and will be drafted.

Long originally was going to play baseball for Florida State, but ended up playing football at a junior college before transferring to Oregon.

Elliot Harrison reshuffles the NFL deck after yet another batch of games, with a new team cracking the top three.

# J.J. Watt, Jared Allen, Jake Long among NFL's best linemen

Ten rookies drafted in Round 2 or later primed to make an impact in Year 1

The midpoint of the season is almost here, and folks are no doubt preparing lists of first-half all-stars.

While they'll have a relatively easy time picking out the best quarterbacks, receivers and running backs, I thought I'd lend them a hand and round up the top offensive and defensive linemen so far this year.

I've ranked the five best offensive and defensive linemen according to how they've played thus far this season.

I've also listed the top five up-and-comers on each side of the ball, based on both game tape and future potential.

On the defensive side of the ball, I included some outside linebackers, since they share similar pass-rushing responsibilities to their D-line brethren.

There are a high number of quality linemen in the NFL, and some very good players were left off these lists.

I tried to forget the players' reputations -- dismissing what I already knew about these guys -- and just rank them according to how they've performed on the field in 2012.

1. J.J. Watt, DE, Houston TexansWatt, who has 18 pressures and a league-leading 9.5 sacks, is a pass-tipping machine; he's caused four interceptions with his ability to get his fingers on the ball.

Watt has long arms, very strong hands and a rare combination of speed, strength and athletic ability.

He's an early favorite to be the Defensive Player of the Year in 2012.

2. Jason Pierre-Paul, DE, New York GiantsA third-year player who burst onto the scene with 16.5 sacks in 2011, Pierre-Paul has continued his quarterback-harassing ways, collecting 4.5 sacks and forcing one fumble through the first seven games of the season.

3. DeMarcus Ware, LB, Dallas CowboysA former high school receiver, Ware has accumulated 106 sacks and 30 forced fumbles through eight seasons, and the likely Hall of Famer hasn't shown any signs of slowing down.

In six games, Ware has 6.5 sacks and three forced fumbles.

He has a great first step and can play in space at times.

4. Geno Atkins, DT, Cincinnati BengalsAtkins underachieved somewhat at Georgia, but those days are behind him.

Very powerful and quick, Atkins has seven sacks in seven games this season after totaling 7.5 in a breakout 2011 campaign.

5. Jared Allen, DE, Minnesota VikingsLike a big wind-up toy, Allen never slows down.

The veteran, in his ninth season, is a big reason that the Vikings are 5-2.

He has six sacks in 2011, bringing his career total to 111.

# Warsaw Ghetto Museum Director: We'll Show Both the Tragic and Inspirational Sides of the Ghetto Experience

Despite various unsubstantiated claims, the Museum is independent, and will not be controlled by the Polish government.

We will show complexity: That Poles aided Jews, and the cases of Polish culpability in the death of Jews

#### Send me email alerts for new articles by Albert Stankowski

Jewish children in front of Jedydia Merensztejn bakery at Nowolipki 7 street in the Warsaw Ghetto.

### Why is this Israeli Jewish scholar a willing poster boy for Poland's brutal distortion of the Holocaust?

### Yad Vashem teaches the Holocaust like totalitarian countries teach history

### The Israeli historian under the Polish government's thumb

### Israel's stupid, ignorant and amoral betrayal of the truth on Polish involvement in the Holocaust

In November of 2017, on the initiative of Professor Pawel Spiewak of the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw, the Polish government agreed to help establish the Warsaw Ghetto Museum, which will be Poland's first museum dedicated to commemorating the victims of the Holocaust.

The announcement of the creation of the museum was well received and without controversy.

But in their opinion piece, "Why is this Israeli Jewish Scholar a Willing Poster Boy for Poland's Brutal Distortion of the Holocaust" historian Jan Grabowski, Professor Barbara Engelking and Dr. Agnieszka Haska - two members of the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, and Professor Jacek Leociak from the Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, do not exactly celebrate this future museum.

Instead, it is in their view a "pernicious project which seeks to whitewash history," and its new Chief Historian, Professor Daniel Blatman, is a "fig leaf for their operation."

But they are unsubstantiated, and their characterizations are unjust.

Warsaw Ghetto Museum, Warsaw, Poland, December 14,

Under Professor Blatman's leadership, renowned Polish scholars Prof. Piotr Weiser, Dr.Hanna Wegrzynek, Dr. August Grabski, Dr. Bartosz Kwieciski, Dr. Magdalena Tarnowska, Dr. Ewa Toniak, aided by several historians of the Holocaust from abroad, have been hard at work crafting an exhibit that will capture the complexities of the Warsaw Ghetto experience, acknowledging cases of Polish aid while refusing to downplay or distort cases of Polish culpability.

This has proceeded without governmental interference or directives.

Incredibly, the very fact of emphasizing the museum's freedom to construct an exhibition based purely on historically accurate research has been used in an attempt to discredit that same institution.

The illogical accusation that Prof. Blatman, an eminent Israeli scholar and expert in Holocaust history, widely known to the public for his firm and uncompromising personal opinions on a variety of issues, would for some unexplained reason compromise his reputation and values can only be described as fantasy.

On the contrary, the fact that Prof. Blatman was appointed to the post of chief historian only demonstrates the independence of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum.

>> Poland, the Only State in Europe to Properly Honor the Holocaust >> 90% of Polish Jews Died in the Holocaust.

So Why Are Poland's Nationalists Chanting 'Get the Jews Out of Power'?

Government funding does not amount to government control, as these three members of the Polish Institute of Philosophy and Sociology and the Institute of Literary Research (themselves recipients of this Polish government's funding) should well know.

The Polish government provides funding for the Auschwitz, Majdanek and Treblinka museums.

Additionally, the Polin museum and the Jewish Historical Institute receive government funds, a fact which has caused no controversy or in any way diminished their credibility.

Albert Stankowski, Director of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum, with Dr. Hanna Węgrzynek, Deputy Director (Research and Exhibitions) with Prof. Daniel Blatman, Chief Historian of the Museum.

The proof, ultimately, will be in the product.

Our museum will attempt to portray the tragic and inspirational dimensions of the Warsaw Ghetto experience as a crucial part of the larger Jewish story, the larger Polish story, and the story of humanity.

Our assertions will be based on historical evidence, informed by historical methodology, and vividly illustrated by film, artwork, poetry, and artifacts.

We invite Professor Grabowski and his colleagues to join us in this monumental endeavor or, if that is not possible, then to engage with our work rigorously and productively.

If they feel we have gone off course, we will listen carefully to their criticism.

Ultimately, we are all after the same elusive goals of enhancing public understanding about a complex, tragic, and all too often politicized event.

Chłodna Street (looking west) from the intersection with Żelazna Street.

The street was 'Aryan'; the wooden footbridge connected the Small and Big Ghetto.

Unsubstantiated statements, sensationalized by the media, should not be the criteria for an assessment of any project or institution.

Our mission and mandate are clearly presented in the public domain via the website of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum, and the museum is supported by the major Jewish organizations in Poland.

Yad Vashem and Israeli historians associated with Yad Vashem were the first to be invited by the Warsaw Ghetto Museum to participate in the creation of this important project, and to be involved in defining the image and message of the core exhibition and associated projects.

This invitation to Yad Vashem and any other such institution still stands, and the policy of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum is to welcome those who could contribute to the development of the institution.

The importance of creating a memorial museum at the location of the actual events, 80 years after the beginning of WWII, and preserving the Behrson and Bauman children's hospital, one of the few remaining buildings of the Warsaw Ghetto, only grows more emphatic with the unfortunate passing of the last survivors of that era.

# Warsaw Ghetto Museum Director: We'll Show Both the Tragic and Inspirational Sides of the Ghetto Experience

Despite various unsubstantiated claims, the Museum is independent, and will not be controlled by the Polish government.

We will show complexity: That Poles aided Jews, and the cases of Polish culpability in the death of Jews

### Yad Vashem teaches the Holocaust like totalitarian countries teach history

### The Israeli historian under the Polish government's thumb

### Israel's stupid, ignorant and amoral betrayal of the truth on Polish involvement in the Holocaust

In November of 2017, on the initiative of Professor Pawel Spiewak of the Jewish Historical Institute in Warsaw, the Polish government agreed to help establish the Warsaw Ghetto Museum, which will be Poland's first museum dedicated to commemorating the victims of the Holocaust.

The announcement of the creation of the museum was well received and without controversy.

But in their opinion piece, "Why is this Israeli Jewish Scholar a Willing Poster Boy for Poland's Brutal Distortion of the Holocaust" historian Jan Grabowski, Professor Barbara Engelking and Dr. Agnieszka Haska - two members of the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, and Professor Jacek Leociak from the Institute of Literary Research of the Polish Academy of Sciences, do not exactly celebrate this future museum.

Instead, it is in their view a "pernicious project which seeks to whitewash history," and its new Chief Historian, Professor Daniel Blatman, is a "fig leaf for their operation."

But they are unsubstantiated, and their characterizations are unjust.

Warsaw Ghetto Museum, Warsaw, Poland, December 14,

Under Professor Blatman's leadership, renowned Polish scholars Prof. Piotr Weiser, Dr.Hanna Wegrzynek, Dr. August Grabski, Dr. Bartosz Kwieciski, Dr. Magdalena Tarnowska, Dr. Ewa Toniak, aided by several historians of the Holocaust from abroad, have been hard at work crafting an exhibit that will capture the complexities of the Warsaw Ghetto experience, acknowledging cases of Polish aid while refusing to downplay or distort cases of Polish culpability.

This has proceeded without governmental interference or directives.

Incredibly, the very fact of emphasizing the museum's freedom to construct an exhibition based purely on historically accurate research has been used in an attempt to discredit that same institution.

The illogical accusation that Prof. Blatman, an eminent Israeli scholar and expert in Holocaust history, widely known to the public for his firm and uncompromising personal opinions on a variety of issues, would for some unexplained reason compromise his reputation and values can only be described as fantasy.

On the contrary, the fact that Prof. Blatman was appointed to the post of chief historian only demonstrates the independence of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum.

>> Poland, the Only State in Europe to Properly Honor the Holocaust >> 90% of Polish Jews Died in the Holocaust.

So Why Are Poland's Nationalists Chanting 'Get the Jews Out of Power'?

Government funding does not amount to government control, as these three members of the Polish Institute of Philosophy and Sociology and the Institute of Literary Research (themselves recipients of this Polish government's funding) should well know.

The Polish government provides funding for the Auschwitz, Majdanek and Treblinka museums.

Additionally, the Polin museum and the Jewish Historical Institute receive government funds, a fact which has caused no controversy or in any way diminished their credibility.

Albert Stankowski, Director of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum, with Dr. Hanna Węgrzynek, Deputy Director (Research and Exhibitions) with Prof. Daniel Blatman, Chief Historian of the Museum.

The proof, ultimately, will be in the product.

Our museum will attempt to portray the tragic and inspirational dimensions of the Warsaw Ghetto experience as a crucial part of the larger Jewish story, the larger Polish story, and the story of humanity.

Our assertions will be based on historical evidence, informed by historical methodology, and vividly illustrated by film, artwork, poetry, and artifacts.

We invite Professor Grabowski and his colleagues to join us in this monumental endeavor or, if that is not possible, then to engage with our work rigorously and productively.

If they feel we have gone off course, we will listen carefully to their criticism.

Ultimately, we are all after the same elusive goals of enhancing public understanding about a complex, tragic, and all too often politicized event.

The street was 'Aryan'; the wooden footbridge connected the Small and Big Ghetto.

Unsubstantiated statements, sensationalized by the media, should not be the criteria for an assessment of any project or institution.

Our mission and mandate are clearly presented in the public domain via the website of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum, and the museum is supported by the major Jewish organizations in Poland.

Yad Vashem and Israeli historians associated with Yad Vashem were the first to be invited by the Warsaw Ghetto Museum to participate in the creation of this important project, and to be involved in defining the image and message of the core exhibition and associated projects.

This invitation to Yad Vashem and any other such institution still stands, and the policy of the Warsaw Ghetto Museum is to welcome those who could contribute to the development of the institution.

The importance of creating a memorial museum at the location of the actual events, 80 years after the beginning of WWII, and preserving the Behrson and Bauman children's hospital, one of the few remaining buildings of the Warsaw Ghetto, only grows more emphatic with the unfortunate passing of the last survivors of that era.
