Abstract

MUNIRAH MOHAMAD has been involved in the real estate industry for over 20 years. She can be described as a lioness in the world of real estate, which the other so-called superior sex-male counterparts have dominated. Her well-defined story is depicted, so the world knows that success comes through hardship despite her well-to-do background. Some might not believe that Munirah’s journey to victory is filled with agonies and pains, but patiently, she accepts what Allah has planned for her. She believes in exploring, exposing and assessing issues brought forward and not afraid of taking risks or anything that she is not used to. She bows to be resilient to changes and leaves plenty of room to think wisely. Repeatedly mentioned that Munirah is of a prosperous family, living in a flourishing mode and is constantly showered with an abundance of wealth. However, she is never too arrogant to start her way up from the lowest level. To be specific, her predicament starts by being a receptionist at one of the real estate agencies in town, Subang Jaya. Later, with an ambitious heart, she spreads her wings by asking to be a negotiator in the same company and her plea is accepted. However, she is a strong-headed woman who is an added advantage. Feeling that there are still some missing portions of her life, she heads on to achieve what is already in store for her. There is no turning back, and she moves on with bigger and wider steps. Completing herself by adding more knowledge in the field of real estate, Munirah vows to be an energetic, productive and skilful agent. After sometimes, Munirah’s Homefield Real Estate Agency was set up in 1996. Munirah’s long journey in the real estate milieu hopefully would open lots of eyes to that being the opposite sex shall not hinder a person from attaining her desires to be A SOMEONE. There shall be no more aching hearts or soaring minds that whisper swiftly into the minds of many about women who are only second-class citizens. Munirah once said to herself, “I am not just A woman, but I am THE woman, the one who would stand in the eyes of the world.” Munirah can be the Malay role model, the hero or the super duper lady who shall inspire the life of many young women out there. Hopefully, these young women can follow in her footsteps into making the first move into real estate. Now, there you have it-the courage, plentiful guts and willingness to take chances laid before you would indeed bring you the most gratifying reward that you could ever dream of having.
