Although her parents supported her decision to study engineering, she recalled that her dad tried to persuade her into taking accountancy instead of engineering during her diploma years. After graduating from UiTM in 1995 , Zanita joined Proton as a homologation engineer to look over Proton’s Australia crash programme.
Another is passive safety which comes into effect when impact is imminent and it is up to the car passive safety systems to minimise injuries towards its occupants. “I think it’s the same for other sectors as well. It’s communication. Basic challenges will be how we present ourselves and how we explain ourselves and some of it could be lost in translation so in my point of view, it’s always about communication.”Blessed with a son, Zanita said that she was lucky to have a support system to help in taking care of her only child when she’s at work.
When she first told her father about it, he was afraid that she would regret her decision one day and he was afraid to fail her as a father but Yogeswary convinced him otherwise.
