Learning is a cross-pollination process. It leads to social inclusion and intellectual openness. I am a learner who believes in radical alternatives and forensic approaches to teaching, learning and research. I am open to opportunities for learning and researching to excel my intellectual journey. - Munir Moosa Sadruddin
