Alhamdulillah we received a sponsorship from LJT for this technical visit. I also took the opportunity to present our research paper on Skudai River pollution at the FIG Congress 2018. After the congress, we travelled to several places on the western side of Turkey (bordering) Bulgaria such as Edirne, Canakkale and Bursa with LJT folks.
On Oct 22, I travelled to TNB DIstribution Bangi for the internship visit. Three students are involved.

I knew that those students obtained many experiences especially when handling the real projects.
On Oct 22, three representatives from UTM FABU headed by Dr Imzan Hassan, Mr Wan Hazli Wan Kadir and me, myself went to MySA in KL for an engagement meeting.

On Jan 23, I accompanied Umar for capturing the landslide vulnerability data of physical infrastructures around Sireh Park, JB and its surrounding areas. Sireh Park is thought to be the largest urban park in Malaysia and few incidents of landslides and slope failure are really alarming. This is due to the availability of a lot of houses and roads around Sireh Park. Alhamdulillah, the findings of this study is conveyed to the SIreh Park authority for further consideration.
