I have noticed your comments on MSC or MBA .. Ineffact I totally agree with you why not MBA .. actually I am trying to escape from the techinical label I have pasted on myself ... I am cuurently pursuing PhD in Wireless Communications from NTU Singapore but I am not sure of my future after that .. unfortunately I have not enough financials to go for MBA on my own I need some sort of funding to sustain myself ..
