He has also attended advanced management courses both in Malaysia and overseas, including an Advanced Diploma in Business Administration from the New Zealand Institute of Management. Under the UNIDO Fellowship program, he attended an intensive course on Environmental Management at the Imperial College in London.[1] CareerKeong was able to move to Australia in 2007 by obtaining a "Distinguished Talent" visa from the Australian government.[6][7] He had served as an adviser to the President of the International Federation of Invention Associations (IFIA) based in Geneva, Switzerland and is a member of the Commonwealth Partnership for Technology Management (CPTM), a partnership of government and business leaders based in London, UK[8][9] Keong has over 24 years of working experience with the Malaysian Government, holding diverse roles in science and technology with SIRIM, formerly known as Standards and Industrial Research Institute of Malaysia, as the coordinator of the National Science Centre project responsible for its conceptualisation, planning, implementation and management with the Ministry of Science, Technology & the Environment (MOSTE) now called MOSTI. He was also specially handpicked to be the Head of Corporate Communications at MIGHT (Malaysian Industry-Government Group for High Technology, a government-private sector partnership) a special unit of the Prime Minister's Department. In this role, he prepared strategic papers and speeches for the Prime Minister.[8][10][11] He served on the Panel of Judges for the National Inventor's Award and the National Science Award.

He is a former president of the Malaysian Association of Professional Speakers, a founder member of Malaysian Mensa and the Malaysian Invention and Design Society.[8][9] Copycat InnovationAn innovation methodology developed by Keong taps into the power of the global brain through the use of the internet.[3] It is a 7 step approach centred on adapting a proven solution to come out with an innovation.[13][14] Keong has been an avid fan of Peter Drucker, a business guru. Drucker developed the Creative Imitation strategy, which had greatly influenced his Copycat Innovation methodology. Drucker's term, however was not applied by Keong, creating a new term out of it. When a new book, Copycats: How Smart Companies Use Imitation to Gain a Strategic Edge was published by Prof. Oded Shenkar, Keong knew that his concepts were true, and were validated by Prof. Shenkar's factual work. Prof. Shenkar coined the term “Imovation (imitation+innovation)" which basically validates the concept of Copycat Innovation.[15] According to Keong, the concept offers the best approach for one's organisation in sustaining and growing its competitiveness and strategic positioning in the marketplace as it has a low risk because you are adapting or refining a proven solution. It is low cost as the research and development work has already been done. It requires minimal resources as you don't need a massive effort and/or resources; and it is a short-route to commercialisation.[3][15] The 7-step fast-track innovation process for Copycat Innovation delivers measurable results with minimum risk and using the least money, effort and resources by in tapping into the power of the global brain.[3][15] Award and Recognitions
