Hi my name is Japheth, virtually however, but yes, my real name is Gene-Harn, just call me Gene (pronounce as “Jin” and not Genie!) I am a 22 years old living near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, currently working as a Green Building Consultant in IEN Consultant and most likely will soon start my Masters in Research. My passion lies within my career towards the built environment and overall environmental sustainability.
Holding a BSc in Architecture degree from USM (Universiti Sains Malaysia) Penang and with the interest in sustainable development, i decided to step into the green building industry instead of finishing my professional Architect route. I didn’t mean Architecture doesn’t belong to the green building sector but i feel that there’s a much more effective and efficient path for my to achieve my dreams.
The focus of my field of excellence is nevertheless built environment issues, buildings and development. But on the other hand, i am quite involve in youth environmental advocacy, for the previous years i have been quite active in learning up all kind of environmental issues in Malaysia by participating, planning and executing various youth projects, both locally and internationally.

Currently, during my off working hours, i am still actively participating in public forums and looking forward going back to universities to contribute back the experience and passion, and i am running my very own virtual project WWW.MESYM.COM, a platform aiming to share and discuss environmental issues, happenings and different profiles of environmental issues related stakeholders in Malaysia, just the little bit i could do… and of course, still trying to get my everyday life as “green” as possible. I’m still yet to really understand my entire carbon footprint trace etc..
Well that’s the very formal side of me, in which people generally know of. But generally to summarize it, I’m a Christian, I am currently Alumni for AIESEC (Association Internationale des Etudiants en Sciences Economiques et Commerciales) The world’s largest student organization, BYEE (Bayer Young Environmental Envoy) and DYEA (Denso Youth for Earth Action). I also used to be active in UNU United Nation Universities network within RCE Regional Center of Expertise. But i think more detail about it can be seen from my CV:
In terms of personality, well i don’t describe myself well but let Johari Window describes it, which was filled by my friends. Generally, i hold a ENTJ profile from Myers Briggs Test Indicator. And also somewhat Choleric Sanguine leadership personality.
