"As a second generation Malaysian-Australian, I would love to see more Malaysian and Asian representation in public life and re-connect to my cultural roots of my parents and family. Being part of AMSA has been a rewarding and accessible way to experience a small slice of this that I encourage everyone with relevant interest to join." - Janson Lim
