🎉 Birthday Tech Upgrade: Apple Vision Pro 🎉

I finally got my hands on the Apple Vision Pro for my birthday! The journey to owning one in Malaysia was a bit of a challenge since it’s not officially available here yet. Here’s the catch: to use it, I had to create a new Apple ID from a country where the Vision Pro is supported. Sounds simple, but to register the Apple ID, I needed to provide a local phone number from that country. Once logged in, I had access to all the Vision Pro apps and features! But the full experience only unlocked when I linked the Apple ID to a local credit card. 💳

Now, the fun part—using the Vision Pro in-flight! Watching 3D movies with the Apple AirPods Max is an experience like no other. The level of immersion is next-level. ✨🎬

However, it’s not all smooth sailing. The AirPods Max made the strap a bit tight, and let’s just say, waxing my hair didn’t help the comfort factor. 😅 But even with the bulky setup, the 3D movie experience is absolutely worth it.

Would I do it all over again? Absolutely! It’s the best virtual reality headset I’ve ever tried. 🔥 If you’re looking for that true immersive experience, this is it.

新年的到来，总让我们停下脚步，回顾与思考。

在马年里，进步不必张扬。它可以是稳健的、自律的，并且持续向前。真正的力量，不只是强大，而是坚持。我们一步一脚印，踏实而有意义地前行，慢慢累积属于自己的动力。

迈入新的一年，愿我们在做决定时更加清晰，在面对挑战时保持坚韧，在旅途漫长之际，依然拥有继续前行的力量。

最重要的是，祝愿您和家人身体健康。因为一切，都从健康开始。

今年农历新年，我将在大年初一启程前往瑞典，参加欧洲炎症性肠病国际会议。愿一路平安顺遂，也希望在学习与交流中有所收获，将所学带回，回馈更多患者与大众。

祝大家在马年里温暖常在、力量常存、马到成功。

The start of a new year naturally makes us reflect.

The Year of the Horse shows us that progress does not need to be loud. It is steady, disciplined, and always moving forward. Strength is not just about power; it is about endurance. We build momentum by taking one meaningful step at a time.

As we enter this new year, I hope we make clear decisions, stay resilient when challenges come, and find the energy to keep going, especially when the journey feels long.

Most importantly, I wish you and your loved ones good health. Everything else follows from there.

This Lunar New Year, I will be travelling on the first day of the new year to Sweden to attend the European inflammatory bowel disease meeting, ECCO 2026. May the journey be smooth and safe.

I wish everyone warmth, strength, and 马到成功 in the Year of the Horse.

🧧🐎 Gong Xi Fa Cai.

As we move into 2026, the focus remains unchanged: the best of health.
2025 marked the beginning of AI adoption; 2026 will be about deeper integration and meaningful implementation.
AI is already merging into our daily lives and clinical practice. It will not replace how medicine is practised, but it will enhance the quality, consistency, and precision of care. Choosing not to engage will only leave us behind. Wishing everyone a healthy and meaningful New Year.

Celebrating a magical White Christmas here in Jeju! ❄️✨ It’s been such a surprising mix of winter vibes and vibrant nature.
We explored the gardens and found stunning red camellias in full bloom, a beautiful contrast to the winter chill. 🌺 Of course, we couldn't miss out on the famous sweet tangerines and the breathtaking seaside views. We even found this unique horse-shaped lighthouse by the pier! I intentionally left out the red horse for your future exploration. 😉🐴🌊
The best way to warm our stomachs? Cozying up in a cafe with hot coffee and cheesecake, grabbing some warm street food, and of course, not forgetting the famous Korean Fried Chicken and BBQ! ☕🍰🍗🥩
It was truly an amazing trip.

It’s been a busy lead-up, but moments like these remind us what truly matters. Wishing everyone a magical Christmas with family and friends. Merry Christmas 🎄

When one reaches the peak of Mount Tai (泰山), the sky and land meet at the horizon. In that moment, we realise how insignificant we are in this vast world, and the noise that once clouded us simply fades away. Humility prevails.

登上泰山之巅，天与地在尽头相接。那一刻才明白自己在天地间何其渺小，原本萦绕心中的喧嚣也随之淡去。谦卑，自然而生。

Spent a meaningful week at Qilu Hospital, Jinan, China (中山大学齐鲁医院). Had the chance to learn gallbladder-sparing stone extraction using the Eyemax cholangioscope. Truly an eye opening techniques. Grateful to learn from 于涛老师、钟宁主任和李真老师.

I also shared a session on Malaysia’s GI disease epidemiology and our experience applying Eyemax cholangioscopy in cholangiocarcinoma and IgG4 autoimmune cholangitis.

A wonderful interactions, generous teaching, and such warm hospitality. A very rewarding attachment.
