A comprehensive human resource and development program is imperative to\u00a0execute and ensure such sustainability.\u00a0The Malaysian government Future Rail 2030 Roadmap initiatives have clearly marked the importance for the academia and rail industry players to synergise their activities in achieving the undeniable global and national railway expansion needs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This presentation will include an overview of the global\u00a0rail industry which is already highly complex and sophisticated.\u00a0Rail Industry issues that will be discussed include the principles of customer-driven forces, putting rail transportation in reach of people, providing an end to end journey, reducing the environmental impact, carbon smart operations, energy efficiency, and supporting the economy and optimising the railway through Internet of Things (IoT).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>This talk will also discuss the past, present and future of railway transport in Malaysia and neighboring countries.\u00a0Railway systems engineering\u00a0is a multi-faceted\u00a0engineering\u00a0discipline dealing with the design, construction and operation of all types of\u00a0railway\u00a0systems. It encompasses a wide range of engineering disciplines, including\u00a0civil,\u00a0computer,\u00a0electrical,\u00a0mechanical,\u00a0industrial and\u00a0production engineering. Hence it is imperative for IEM and Malaysian Institutes of Higher Learning (IHL) to play important roles in\u00a0the\u00a0nurturing of local talents to become international technical and managerial experts in all railway related matters in the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Participant Fees:\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"147\"><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"146\"><strong>Online<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"117\"><strong>Normal<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"147\"><strong>IEM Member<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"146\"><strong>RM20<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"117\"><strong>RM30<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"147\"><strong>Non-Member<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"146\"><strong>RM40<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"117\"><strong>RM60<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For ONLINE REGISTRATIONS payment MUST BE MADE VIA\u00a0Institution\u2019s Maybank Current Account (No. 5-013920-15708) before closing date.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Limited seats available on a &#8220;first come first served&#8221; basis (<strong>30 participants only<\/strong>).
