Graduates these days generally come out at 22-24, so 5 years by 29 means he graduated by 24, probably a 5 year course? (1-2 years STPM + 3 years degree perhaps?)

Right after spm went for 1 yr matriculation... then continue 4 yrs engineering course to get a degree...

I mean, how come you started work at 24 years old? I wasn't asking which year you started work.

Like everyone else, finished SPM at 17.
Finished matriculation at 18.
Went uni for 4 year sandwich course, finished at 22 including working 1 year full time.
By 29, another 7 years of working. Total 8 years.

Pretty standard what. Most people will finish SPM at 17, then 1 year preU and then 3 or 4 years Uni. Come out at 21/22.

I use the Celcom Xpax 3G Prepaid Broadband simcard with my Singtel Huawei USB modem. RM25 to get the simcard with some airtime, and thereafter RM6 for 24 hrs or RM20 for 7 days.

Coverage is of course Maxis or Celcom in West Malaysia. Celcom in East Malaysia. Digi is cheaper but less reliable... eg. sometimes SMS are not instantaneous.

There's a 3gb data ceiling on the Limited Edition Digi Prepaid BB.

Celcom's Xpax BB is unlimited, and works with torrents and both rapidshare/megaupload... if you're into downloads.
