Professor Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau is a strong advocate for human rights. He believes in the fundamental rights and freedoms that every person deserves from birth to death. Dr. Pau is proud to be the first graduate of Cosmos International University, where he earned a Master of Arts in Teaching English on 25 November 2003, at the age of 32. At that time, the university was called Free International University. Dr. Pau was born on 18 June 1971 in Thangkaai Suangpi, a village in western Myanmar (Burma). He started his education at Thaangkaai Suangpi Primary School, where he completed early schooling up to the 3rd standard. At 9, he moved to Ngalzang Private Middle School and studied from grades 4 to 7. After that, he attended Basic Education High School in Thuklai, Siyin Region, Tedim Township. He finished grades 8 and 9 there over two years and completed his secondary education in 1996. At 17, he passed the High School examination conducted by Myanmar’s Ministry of Education in 1988. Dr. Pau’s lifelong commitment to education and advocacy shows his deep respect for human dignity and rights.

He graduated from high school in 1988, but his path to higher education was delayed by the difficult political situation in Myanmar (formerly Burma). He wanted to continue his studies, so he enrolled in a Bachelor's degree program after completing language training at FMA Language School in Yangon. He also improved his English through courses at Zomi Theological College in Falam, Chin State, and Southern Asia Christian College in Madras, India. He completed his Bachelor's degree from the University of Madras in 1997, an essential step in his education. He created an educational framework called the Modern Heuristic Education System. This system was based on his hands-on experience, academic studies, and love for education. It was developed through the Christian Development International Ministry (CDIM), which aims to improve education in a Christian human rights context. He believes in lifelong learning and pursued a Master's degree, using the education system he designed, which has helped him refine his methods and expand his vision for education. For making education more accessible in the digital age, CDIM launched Cosmos International University, an online platform for learners worldwide. This initiative shows his dedication to improving education and sharing knowledge with communities.

The first Master of Arts diploma was issued to Prof. Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau in Bangkok, Thailand. He is a global citizen, and his parents are Rev. Dr. Samuel Nang Khan Do and Madam Suan Sian Cing. In November 2004, Professor Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau went to Hong Kong to continue his autonomous research in teaching English and to seek a job in that field. Unfortunately, his briefcase containing his MA diploma and other important documents was stolen while in Hong Kong. Because of this incident, his MA diploma in teaching English was reissued in February 2005.

Due to the presence of an unseen malevolent force, Professor David Ngin Sian Pau experienced severe distress and harassment, which ultimately destroyed his M.A. diploma for the second time in Loudi, Hunan province. Despite these challenges, he continued to teach English in the same city for eight months. Following the rebranding of the university to Cosmos International University, his M.A. diploma, which had been lost on two occasions, was reissued in the Macau Special Administrative Region (SAR). The president, the registrar, and David Ngin Sian Pau duly signed this diploma on November 29, 2005. When David Ngin Sian Pau became a UN Refugee in 2010, the passport number originally included on the M.A. diploma was rendered obsolete and was subsequently removed from the degree. At that time, the president, the recipient David Ngin Sian Pau, and the registrar signed the document for the final time.

Professor Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau earned his PhD degree in December 2007. To continue his heuristic autonomous research on teaching English globally, he must write a one-hundred-thousand-word dissertation on "Teaching English In A Non-English Speaking World" to complete the Advanced Doctor of Philosophy (DPh). Unfortunately, this endeavor was unsuccessful due to the local education policy. Until May 2009, Prof. Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau was an individual member of the International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language (IATEFL) and the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE). He is passionate about reading Research in the Teaching of English (RTE), an online journal published by NCTE, USA, and VOICES, IATEFL's online magazine from the UK.

Professor Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau became a World Citizen on September 23, 2009. His WSA passport number is 343122, valid until September 23, 2014. Sadly, police officer Modh Raabuan Modh Ain from Cheras took his passport by force and assaulted him. The Malaysian police then sent him to court and held him in Bukit Jalil Lockup for 20 days without a valid reason. He has an international resident permit and an exit visa from the World Government, but has not been allowed to use them in Malaysia. Since November 2009, he has sought help from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) office in Malaysia to get political protection, a job in his field, and resettlement in the USA to avoid further persecution due to his religion, education, and ethnicity. While he waited for a chance to go to the US, his sister, Ngoih Lam Cing (Lamboih), died on 21 December 2011 after having diarrhea for a few weeks. He felt deep sadness and loss from her passing. The UNHCR, the only UN agency in Malaysia, gave him a letter of protection on January 19, 2010. His UNHCR card number is 354- 10C00251. This card was issued on April 8, 2011.

Professor Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau earned a Grade A (First Class) certification in Graduate Diploma in TESOL from London Teacher Training College in the UK in 2009. He also received a certificate from the American TESOL Institute in 2006 that specialized in teaching English to children. In December 2011, he became an Emeritus Professor of English and started volunteering at Cosmos International University.

After an interview, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) sent him an approval letter on June 12, 2013. This letter, called the Notice of Eligibility for Resettlement in the USA, states that his application for refugee status has been conditionally approved under section 207(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. The letter lists his name as PAU, David Ngin Sian, with his last name coming first. However, his Social Security Card shows his name correctly as DAVID NGIN SIAN PAU. With help from the International Organization of Migration (IOM), working with the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and (LIRS), his flight ticket was arranged. He flew to Tokyo, Japan, on February 24, 2014, and arrived at O'Hare Airport in Chicago on February 25, 2014, on a Japan Airlines (JAL) flight. After arriving, he went to Battle Creek, Calhoun County, Michigan, USA, and continued his research on teaching English.

He was working while pursuing his Advanced Doctor of Philosophy (DPh). Sadly, his younger brother, Thang Khan Khai, died in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, in April 2014, while he was waiting for UN refugee status. At the same time, Dr. Pau could not find a teaching job at Michigan State, so he moved to Ithaca, New York, after staying for three months in Battle Creek. However, he still could not find a teaching job in Ithaca, so he moved to Fort Worth/Dallas, Texas, in early February 2015 after seven months in Ithaca. On March 2, 2015, the World Government of World Service Authority (WSA) issued a new World Passport No. 352457 to replace the old one, which Malaysian police took by force in 2011 in Malaysia.

Professor Dr. David is the founder and chief editor of the Newsletter of Christian Development International Ministry. Since April 2015, he has been a substitute teacher for the Crowley Independence School District in Texas. Because his foreign qualifications are not recognized in the US education system, he has had to work jobs suitable for his high school diploma from Burma. On September 6, 2015, he began working as a Fulfillment Associate at Amazon DFW7 in Haslet, Texas, one of the largest international companies in the US. He received a US Permanent Resident Card, or Green Card, a year after he arrived in the country. On July 6, 2016, he moved to Nashville, Tennessee, due to issues with his cars in Fort Worth, Texas. There, he interviewed for an apprenticeship program and started working for JWM Architectural Engineering Company the next day. After three months, he switched jobs to Ready Duct Inc. and Nashville Machine. At the end of April 2017, he sought a new job for safety reasons and received a sanitation job offer from Standard Functional Foods Group. He moved to Grovetown, Georgia, in the first week of September 2017. Unfortunately, the Columbia County administration in Georgia has not been helpful, and he has been unemployed since he moved. Life in Georgia has been more challenging than in other states, as he has not received job offers from national US companies or institutions.

In March 2018, he moved to Phoenix, Arizona. In June 2018, he decided to continue his education at a private Christian university in Phoenix. He studied Applied Business Analytics at Grand Canyon University. Unfortunately, he faced challenges with the lecturer, student counselor, and online education platform, which led him to quit his studies in April 2019. On July 13, 2020, he enrolled in the Phlebotomy Technician program at Brookline College in Phoenix. He graduated with Honors (Grade A) on March 12, 2021, earning his Diploma in Phlebotomy Technician. This allowed him to continue his education in the Patient Care Technician program at the college. On June 11, 2021, he became an AMT Certified Member and a certified Registered Phlebotomy Technician (RPT) after passing the American Medical Technologists (AMT) certification exam.

On August 17, 2021, Prof. Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau celebrated becoming a U.S. citizen. Before his interview with USCIS, he worried he might lose his permanent residency. During the interview, Officer Street asked him civics questions and gave him English reading and writing tests based on the 50 questions from Form N-400. He passed all the tests. As a result, he became a citizen of the United States that same day at the USCIS Office in Phoenix, Arizona. He also received his Certificate of Naturalization.

On October 24, 2021, Prof. Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau finished the Patient Care Technician diploma program at Brookline College-Phoenix Campus. He completed a 160-hour externship at Abrazo West Hospital in Goodyear, Arizona, and received an A. His overall GPA for the course was 3.85, which earned him a spot on the Honors and the Director's List.He received two Technician Diplomas from Brookline College. In February 2022, he applied for a job at HFN (Hanger Fabrication Network) in Phoenix, Arizona, and temporarily worked there for five months. He began as an Orthotic and Prosthetic Technician I and worked in various departments, including AmpuShield, Helmet Lab, AFO, and Carving Departments. Later, he became an O&P Fabrication Specialist I.

He was eager to attend a government college in the United States, so he emailed his manager at HFN, Joshua Hogdson, asking to study while working. Six months later, the manager approved his request. He then took placement tests and scored 96 in Critical Reading and Thinking, 97 in College Reading, 90 in College English, and 92 in College Algebra. These scores allowed him to enroll in an Associate of Science program with an emphasis in Biochemistry at various public colleges in Maricopa County. As a freshman in college for the first time in the USA, he enrolled in First Year English Composition and First Year Experience at South Mountain Community College, and Fundamental Chemistry and Chemistry Laboratory at Gateway Community College for Spring 2023. He passed all the classes with an A, achieving a 4.0 GPA. During the Summer of 2023, he attended Precalculus/Trigonometry classes at Paradise Valley Community College and passed the course. In the Fall Semester, he enrolled in First Year English Composition at Phoenix College, studied Calculus I/Analytic Geometry at South Mountain Community College, and passed both with an A. He also took General Chemistry I and Chemistry Laboratory online at Rio Salado College and passed.

Unfortunately, he experienced the loss of his younger brother, Vung Khan Tuang, on November 29, 2023. Additionally, on December 16, 2023, he was in a car accident while coming home from the chemistry testing center at Rio Salado College in Tempe. His car, worth $26000, was damaged, but he was lucky not to hit anyone else. Since then, he has been riding a bicycle to work. He felt deep sadness as these misfortunes hit him one after another. He must drive to work and school daily, as his apartment, workplace, and college are all over 10 miles apart. To meet this need, Professor Dr. David Ngin Sian Pau bought a 2024 NISSAN VERSA on January 4, 2024. He could not renew his auto insurance on time due to his busy schedule with classes and exam preparations. As a result, Officer Benham took the license plate of his 2015 FIAT Sport on December 16, 2023. Since January 4, 2024, he has only been driving the 2024 NISSAN Versa.

During the Spring Semester, he studied Philosophy and Behavioral Health Science. He received excellent grades of 97.69 in Philosophy and 96.5 in Behavioral Health Science.
