39 years old Wong Yong Geng never got the chance to finish his SPM Chinese paper in the past, however, 21 years later he finally gets his chance to resist for his SPM Chinese paper, and since the Chinese language was an elective paper in SPM<Wong did not sign up for it and ended having a bad feeling about it for over 21 years.
Wong signed up to take the paper three times through the two-decade but missed the first few times due to his hectic schedule however he finally managed to make it up this year. He initially signed up to take the exam when he was pursuing tertiary education at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) where he signed up and paid for the paper however, the date of the SPM Paper and his university exam clashed.
While on the second time, in 2007 he signed up for the paper again after completing his Master’s but failed to sit for the paper again because the company he worked with arranged for him to attend an important class. However, he never gives up and he registered for the paper again in 2020 but it was delayed to February this year because of the MCO, Wong who is the oldest candidate to sit for the paper which took place on 15 March.
His determination finally paid off after successfully taking the Chinese exam paper.
