Leading Tomorrow’s Talents

We believe that by investing in education and grooming future leaders today, we can transform lives, economies and the world we live in. Sustainably contributing to community development, we established Gamuda Scholarship, a prestigious educational aid to develop future leaders.
Since 1996, the Gamuda Scholarship has paved the way for exceptional young Malaysians to pursue their studies locally and globally. Each year, Gamuda Scholarship enabled dozens of scholars to study courses of their choice and access reputable universities in Malaysia and abroad. To date, over 530 inspiring young students have gained the opportunity that transforms their lives, perspectives and careers.
The Group has helped shape the future generation of leaders by providing leadership training and job placement within Gamuda. Our workforce benefits tremendously from this ready pipeline of true talent, as scholars have chosen to join the Group upon completing their studies. Today, many Gamuda scholars are helming senior management positions within the company.
More than just financial aid, our scholarship programme provides a holistic platform for a brighter future, as you will embark on a life-changing journey.

Our Success Stories
Notably, being part of the in-house team of passionate young Gamuda engineers in developing the world’s first Autonomous Tunnel Boring Machine (A-TBM) in 2019, is a proud moment for me. The Group has spearheaded many firsts, especially in tunnel engineering and digitalisation and has won numerous international accolades and awards. Such industry excellence has groomed many next-generation leaders for Gamuda’s sustainable long-term growth. Today, like myself, many Gamuda scholars are helming senior management positions within the company. Secure your future with Gamuda Scholarship.”

Today, as the Head of Yayasan Gamuda, the Group’s foundation arm, I oversee the Group’s social efforts for community investments and people development. The diverse exposure within the Group has shaped many successful scholars and moved good talents up the value chain. Gamuda Scholarship is truly an avenue for leading tomorrow’s talents.”

Now, my aspiration to assist Gamuda to expand its geographical presence is the main focus. I was given the opportunity to forefront and coordinate the implementation of the ERP SAP S/4 Hana system in other countries, with the foresight and vision that it will evolve into a platform that compliments current and future business models. This provides a secure and reliable basis on which differentiating and innovative capabilities can be realised. If an ordinary Mechanical Engineering graduate can achieve the accomplishments and success in a field which he had no clue about, so can you. The belief that you can have a meaningful career is the first step to finding one. Hence, always have the courage to explore what interests you, as the only way to do great work is to love what you do.”

To further challenge myself, in 2020, I took role as the President of Gamuda Toastmasters Club. The supportive club environment has upskilled me to be a better public speaker and leader; my confidence level is boosted which it has opened me up to more opportunities.
In 2022, after three years of site exposure, a new opportunity arises; I have been given the chance to join the digitalisation movement in Gamuda Building Unit. This opportunity has unlocked a new learning journey on digital literacy. With my past site experience and resources provided by Gamuda, I am excited about turning ideas into impactful solutions and reinvent our workplace, the construction industry.
These three years were great. From a bewildered fresh graduate to an engineer who is exposure to construction knowledge, leadership experience and digital innovations. There’s not even a day that I was not refreshed with new experiences and skills. Thanks to Gamuda, opportunities are up to us to seize.”
