From being a wife and a mother to losing my grandmother, being redundant from my former Company, and being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes,\u201d said Mel. \u201cIt was a lot to take in, but hey, I am a woman who never gives up. I will stumble and fall, but I will rise \u2013 braver and stronger. Starting my job at Commtech Asia was a fresh start for me; it gave me renewed hope and optimism, and I recently celebrated my 7th year in the Company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThink like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another stepping-stone to greatness\u201d Mel\u2019s favourite quote from Oprah Winfrey has constantly reminded her that it is okay to fail and take care of oneself. \u201cWhat I have learned from this pandemic is that we must take good care of ourselves \u2013 nothing is more important than being healthy, and for working moms like me, we deserve to rest and recharge and once in a while, forget about those unwashed dishes or unemptied bins!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

Tell me something about yourself?<\/strong> Since then, my life was like a roller coaster. Two years before joining Commtech Asia, I had the highest and lowest point of my life as a woman. From being a wife and a mother to losing my grandmother, being redundant from my former Company, and being diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. It was a lot to take in, but I am a woman who never gives up. I will stumble and fall, but I will rise and become braver and stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n I am proud of being part of the Commtech Asia family.

I have a stable job in the Philippines back then, with lots of friends to go out with on Friday nights, I am enjoying my life. I came from a very close-knit family and I have no plans to go abroad. It was when one of my cousin told me about her plans to go abroad and I was like, can I come with you? (As if we are just going to the mall) and voila! I got my passport and booked my tickets. With no assurance of getting a job, I left the Philippines with just $400 in my pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/commtechasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/image-56.png\")
