At the age of 17, Amber flew from Tawau, Sabah to Kuala Lumpur, with only RM 300 in her pocket to chase her dream.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">\u201cI didn\u2019t know how long I can survive and when my money will run out,\u201d Amber shared. With zero modelling experience and no SPM certificate, Amber explained it was a tough moment at that time of her life. Nonetheless, what made Amber\u2019s fairytale happened is her determination and a spirit to never give up, to chase her dream to become a model, despite disapproval from her family.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">\u201cBoth of them disagreed with me,\u201d Amber shared. \u201cThe first thought they had towards modeling were negative stereotypes, such as smoking, drinking, and being someone\u2019s mistress.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">The same year when she came to KL, Amber went back to her hometown and she showed her mother the photographs that she has taken. It took Amber\u2019s mother two years to finally agree with her career but it took her dad around four years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-29234\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006.jpg\" alt=\"amber-chia-pampermy_0006\" width=\"500\" height=\"773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006-97x150.jpg 97w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006-194x300.jpg 194w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006-768x1187.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006-662x1024.jpg 662w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006-696x1076.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006-1068x1651.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0006-272x420.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n\u201cMy mom called me and said your dad is crazy! He took all of my photos and magazine covers and stuck it all over the house, and even in front of the dining table. That is when I knew that he has become my supporter.\u201d \u00a0Amber recounted.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">Amber, who\u2019s a veteran in the modeling industry, shared with us how much the industry has evolved throughout the years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">\u201cWhen I just kick started my modelling career, I remember that only Malaysians are allowed to appear in commercials and runway shows. Basically that gave Malaysians a lot of opportunities,\u201d Amber explained. Around four to five years later, the modelling doors in Malaysia has opened to foreigners which made the industry more competitive. \u201cBut this has also made models more determined and hardworking so things always happen for good and bad.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">In today\u2019s world, it is hard to not talk about social media while discussing about the modelling industry. Models such as Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner and, and Hailey Baldwin, gained their supermodel status and fame trough their big social media followings. When asked about what Amber thought about this phenomenon, she shared \u201cSocial media in these five years is really in.\u201d She continued, \u201cSocial media help models to earn more money while at the same time it gives people who want to be a model a good platform to start. This is the trend and change, what I have to do is accept and learn.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">We asked Amber if she had any advice for the local modeling industry, here&#8217;s what she had to say.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">\u201cThese days when you watch runway shows, you can see they [the models] are all foreigners. Hopefully Malaysian brands and designers can give more opportunity to Malaysian models, because we need your support.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">Though Amber has enjoyed a phenomenal success in the modelling industry, she also understands that beauty doesn\u2019t last forever and modelling is not a sustainable career.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\n\u201cI know that one day I will be old, and I won\u2019t be in the modelling anymore, so you have to plan something for your future.\u201d\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-29246\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005.jpg\" alt=\"amber-chia-pampermy_0005\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1077\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005-150x126.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005-300x252.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005-768x646.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005-1024x862.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005-696x586.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005-1068x899.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.pamper.my\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Amber-Chia-PamperMY_0005-499x420.jpg 499w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">She continued, \u201cWhen I was 29, I thought it was time to start my career, something I could grow old with and will forever belong to me. I want to start something long term, because in the modelling world everything comes and gos.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">Founded in 2010, Amber Chia Academy was founded by Amber Chia and catwalk guru Benjamin Toong. As described by Amber, when she first started in the modelling industry, there was no single place that could provide a complete education that was required to succeed in modelling. Thus she started the academy to help aspiring models who would like to learn more about the ins and outs of modelling, fashion, makeup, hair styling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d3d3d4;\">Curious to know the one thing Amber misses about Tawau, and the sweetest thing her son Ashton has ever done?
