The iron lady of Malaysia has reached the golden era and her advice to senior citizens is “Chase your passion, not your pension.” Being a tough lady handling the business of providing security for companies and large firms, she propagates excellence in whatever she does. Negativity is not in her dictionary. She is always in search of new ideas and skills. She strives to motivate others to work better, live happier and interact harmoniously. Being the chairman of Securiforce Group of Companies, she has expanded the company to concentrate on warehouse cargo and international businesses. Their services are not limited to static guard but extend to logistic, cash in transit, cash management and armoured trucking service. “SECURIFORCE has developed and diversified into many subsidiary companies, thriving from strength to strength. Now we have Danau Lumayan, a property development company situated at Bandar Tun Razak, Cheras. Our property development company builds and sells exclusive condominiums and penthouses. Recently our 200 units of condominiums and penthouses sold out within a day.” Datuk Dr. Maznah did not stop there; she advanced further to become an orator, author and counsellor.

Currently, her Maznah Motivational Centre conducts courses and seminars for the young and old. She is the most sought after platform speaker to deliver talks such as, ‘Awaken the Spirit of Entrepreneurship and Intrapreneurship’ and ‘Zero to Hero’. In the business fraternity, she has spread her wings in housing development, forwarding companies and book publishing. Datuk Dr. Maznah is the Vice President of the Women World Entrepreneur Association (FCEM) and she has inspired many women in global forums. “I believe that each woman earns the right to challenge herself, to be versatile, to be financially secure and to be a millionaire too! Some women become emotionally unstable when they face marriage challenges.

Finally a magazine for senior citizens has come to the newsstand for the public to read. There are many reading materials published for children, teenagers, men and women and now, it is time to publish one for our golden people.Although this magazine is meant for the senior citizens, the articles published are for the benefit of all. All are welcomed to associate, contribute, participate and comment. The magazine is packed with a lot of information on biographies of personalities, health, travel, technology, finance & law, lifestyle and aging forums & events.

Wisdom comes with age, likewise, senior citizens’ expertise, knowledge and advice are valuable assets to the younger generation. Aging is not only a seniority of calendar years but also an accumulation of wisdom. As we advance technologically, the humanitarian aspect of helping people should not be forgotten. Progression of arts and science is the acquisition and execution of knowledge and progression of age is the combination of forbearance, righteousness and sense control which produces wisdom. Age is not confined to numbers; aging is a biological process not a psychological one.

As James A. Garfield, the 20th President of the United States said, “If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should never grow old.” So long as your psyche is strong, you do not age.
