Hi there
Today i've finally gotten my blog invite. It's been a crazy time in the PR world. I've been working with two private PR companies in Malaysia and find it an amazing experience. Even though there are up's and down's like anywhere around the world. Working in the PR world is quite an experience. If being hardworking isn't one of your fortes then this isn't a career to follow in the future.
I've had a chance to meet clients from P&G and Giant and journalists from The Star to Berita Harian. They are both very different people, however very interesting to meet and mingle with. One of my daily jobs is media monitoring, this means reading all kinds of newspapers and magazines (mainly English and Malay), watching out for their clients in order to compile everything in the end. And of course not forgetting the Chinese magazines too. So i'm sure you can imagine all the work i have at the beginning of the month with all the monthly magazines.
This is the start of my blog, i'll post soon again. Please stay tuned.

Wow, 2 PR companies? You must have quite a lot to do then!
Media monitoring sounds like such a tedious task to do, but it will all be worth it in the end, I guess.
I also think that it's so cool that you get to meet the clients and journalists from some well-known newspaper publications in Malaysia.
I hope that you'll update soon. I like to learn about experiences from my classmates :D
Believe it or not Doreen i actually don't have much to do. The thing that keeps me busy is all the media monitoring that i've got to do. It is very tedious like you said but at least i'll be able to read about what is happening around the world and Malaysia through newspapers and i also get to look at all the women magazines, which is always great. :D
