Yuen Kit Mun
Kit Mun is a self-confessed information junkie, reading an average of a book a week over the past two decades. His growing Internet addiction has unfortunately put a serious dent into the above statistic.
He cheerfully admits to being a jack of all trades and a master of none, claiming that specialization is for wimps. Obsessions include technology, philosophy, history, corporations, politics, science, economics, anything military, kung fu, and the art of sharpening knives. He is also strangely fascinated by kitchen appliances.
Career-wise, Kit Mun has a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering. He has worked as a software developer, IT systems administrator, and wedding photographer. To his everlasting regret, his career as a knife-sharpener has never taken off.
Kit Mun was born and raised in Malaysia. He now lives in Singapore, despite William Gibson's portrayal of Singapore as "Disneyland with the Death Penalty."
