We would like to thank each of the contributing authors for taking the time to write their chapters. Their insights and practical experiences have made the book much richer.
Special thanks go to Mrs. Marni Rafiza Mohammad for her enthusiastic support. Her relentless energy and valuable assistance have made this book possible.
Also thanks to Nick Wallwork, Fiona Wong, Joel Balbin, and the team of John Wiley & Sons (Asia) for getting the book into shape and guiding us through the publishing process.
Finally, we are indebted to our families, who have been a great source of encouragement and support every step of the way.
