My research papers have been published by well-known economic journals such as Applied Economics, Journal of Policy Modeling, China Economic Review, Feminist Economics, Structural Change and Economic Dynamics, Asian Development Review, and Empirical Economics Letters etc. . Additionally, findings of my research have been presented at national/international conferences in Malaysia, United States, Switzerland, Italy, China, Russia, Qatar, Australia, South Korea, Singapore, and South Africa. I've also been invited as keynote speaker/panelist for  economics forums/roundtables/events by various agencies, e.g. United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), and Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM).

Beyond academic research, I've been leading or engaged in various consulting projects for Malaysian government agencies e.g. Ministry of Higher Education(MoHE), Ministry of Women, Family & Community Development (MWFCD) and Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), and for international organizations such as UNDP, OIC and ASEAN Secretariat.
