Retirement is not the end, but the beginning of a new journey. From the world of broadcasting to the world of steel and welding, a retiree proves that age is no barrier for an individual to continue to work and be independent.

Awang Abdullah bin Asgar began his career at News Centre, Radio Television Brunei in 1988 and Information Department in 1993, before exploring a new path as an iron welder.

As a small business owner, he did not make profits as his top priority, but emphasised on the quality of the service provided.

Life after retirement is not just about quitting work, but how one fills one's time with meaningful activities.
