Both Ilmi Wahab and Ng Kok Chong are part of a team of NTU students who took their personal time off to pursue their dreams of building something unique to help the environment. They took into considerations of the rising demand of cars worldwide to come up with an idea that relies on a sustainable alternative energy to reduce the reliance on the finite natural resources. The focus on the usage of solar power has been studied over numerous years as its a infinite energy source that could be drawn continuously but the technology to harness such energy has still rooms for improvement. Despite the fact that they were initially not familiar on how to operate even the most important part of the vehicle, which is none other than the combustion engine, they still manage to prove others wrong in creating a wonderful product.


They were both part of the team that built the first "3D Printer Solar Powered Car"

Despite the constraints and commitments, it is really commendable that the students were able to dedicate their time into making the impossible, possible despite their hectic schedule in school. This shows that is feasible to pursue your own personal dreams as long as you have the determination, perseverance and patience to do so. As they were part of the NTU team that made the very first 3D printed solar powered car. It is not easy, but the teamwork that they exhibited in making this possible is definitely commendable.

Their specificity in ensuring that all flaws are rectified by maximizing all aspects of the solar car is very inspirational indeed. Especially when they took into account of safety by ensuring the materials used are not only light but as safe as conventional ones too, which is the utmost importance when driving any sorts of vehicle. Their consistency in ensuring that every angle and aspects of the vehicle is taken into account to ensure that the weight is minimized while not compromising on safety, which shows how critical thinking skills in NTU are put to good use. The cultivation of such skills at such levels has shown that is wise to consider enrolling into this amazing school. 



Moreover, their hard works and efforts were paid off as they gained recognition through the different awards received at different competitions.
