NIK Amlizan Mohamed, the new chief executive of the Armed Forces Fund Board (LTAT), sits in her new office adorned by gifts from her ex-colleagues at Retirement Fund Inc (KWAP) when she left her job to head for new responsibilities at LTAT.

Hanging on the wall behind her desk is a huge portrait of Arabic words that translate to “Almighty God, Give Me Ease”, which is among a sprinkling of objects placed throughout her office.
