The First Woman in Asia to Lead a Central Bank: Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz
Dr Zeti Akhtar Aziz.
She is indeed an inspiration for me.
She is brilliant, humble, and does her work quietly and ultimately makes decision for the betterment of a nation and her people.
She is a role model for the younger generation to aspire to be the best at what you do be it being a baker, a designer, a writer, a waiter, an engineer, a doctor, etc.
Be useful to your family and society.
Have integrity.
May we have many more like Dr Zeti.

Dr. Zeti then set her nation’s economy on a sustainable, more inclusive course and in the process became an economic leader across Asia and the Islamic world. Since, she has earned accolades as a top bank governor—if not the top one—and continued to be a pioneer.
