Co-Curators
TEDxUKM started out as just a mere conversation between these 4 friends but it will finally manifest into reality on 21st August 2021. After a 5-year hiatus, the Co-Curators decided to breathe new life into TEDxUKM and spread its name to a global audience. The Co-Curators are responsible for the entire operation of TEDxUKM literally from A to Z since its inception. But their hard work will be worthwhile if TEDxUKM can instigate positive changes in our local community by 'Inspiring Futures'.

Chien Chern is an ordinary fourth year law student from the National University of Malaysia who seeks to make a difference in this world like everybody else. But how does one leave a dent in the universe, that is the question. One day, it struck him that perhaps he should stop wasting time thinking about making a difference and just start doing things that excites him. With that in mind, he quickly signed up to TEDxUKM as soon as the opportunity arises for the simple reason that watching TedTalk on Youtube has always been one of the few things which excite him.
