UTAR On Campus Group President with David


David shared about TPNs and CPDs at the volunteer training session for both the Main committee and YPS, about 30 volunteers joined the training.  There was a good discussion about TPNs and the hot topics of Malaysia:  Oil and Gas, energy, renewable energy and Railway (high speed train).  Two Malaysia volunteers who joined the Control and Automation TPN shared about how the Network collaborated with TPN.  Their upcoming event will be a Student Competition that will take place in August.  After the session, the Malaysia volunteers have a better understanding of TPNs, how it works and the possible ways of collaborations between LNs and TPNs.  

Thank you UTAR On Campus group committee for the venue and event coordination!!!

Meeting and Dinner with Main Committee

There was a meeting and dinner with the Malaysia Main Committee members during the evening, the members had good interactions with David and they found it really useful to have UK staff to visit them and share with them about the IET.

Thanks Malaysia Network volunteers for organising the programme!!!
