DUE TO THE demanding nature of their profession —being doctors who also live apart from each other, Farid Razali and Fazliana Abdul Rashid can only meet once a month on weekends. In order to secure this cover shoot itself, we had to notify the couple a few months in advance, to block their on-call schedules and fly back to KL.

ONE SUNDAY MORNING saw over 1,600 UOB Malaysia colleagues with their families and friends, turning up at the annual UOB Heartbeat Run/Walk, which was organised to raise funds and to show their support for a good cause. The successful event amassed a total of RM200,000 this year, for three different charities which had one common denominator: education.

A cheque was presented to the three organisations at Perdana Botanical Gardens in Kuala Lumpur after the event, which featured a 5km family walk and a carnival packed with activities and stage performances to keep everyone entertained. The funds were distributed equally…
