Let me tell you a story about Stephen Rahman Hughes from all those years ago.
He came into the studio for MHI that morning looking all perky and energetic. When introduced to myself and Nurul, he greeted us with, "Hey Mzul, how are you?" "How are you, Nurul?" He made an effort to find out our names.
Maybe his manager told him, but it was important to him. And we had a good conversation from thereon, like we've known each other for ages.
Meanwhile, some people come to the set and ask us, "Er maaf, tapi siapa nama ya?" Then proceed to refer to us as "Selamat Pagi Malaysia" or "HMI". Or even say, "Saya jarang tengok program ni."
Not that I'm famous and expect to be recognised, but it's only polite when you go somewhere, you find out who you're meeting, no?
Stephen had great PR and knew how to create a rapport. A real professional. Thanks, Mr. Hughes :)
