ORGANISING e g a s s CHAIRMAN’S Me

O

n behalf of the organising committee, I would like to welcome all to our 63rd IEM Annual Dinner 2022.

It is an honour and blessing to be able to continue the tradition to organize the dinner again together with this year’s committee members. To recap on last year’s dinner, the focus was on the revival and staying resilience together.

This year our theme chosen is GROW, Goal, Reinforcement, Opportunity and Worth. The theme is aptly as we know the earlier pandemic has indeed changed the world it used to be and altered the lifestyle of everyone, including the engineers. Earlier this year, the country and the world has started to push to revive the economy and IEM are looking forward rejuvenate the engineering industry together with other industry players. Thus, the theme aims to put the goals together for the engineering industry and reinforce it and provide opportunity and worth for engineering industry together. The dinner hopefully will also bring together new fresh networking opportunities together.

We are indeed proud that we have managed to secure more than 100 tables (800 pax) during this difficult time and with limited time of preparation. I would like to thank all the sponsors for this as well.

I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate all award winners whom have won their respective awards. Thank you for your contribution to IEM and also the engineering industry.

Last not but not least, my heartfelt appreciation to the organizing committee whom we only started our planning two months ago and the IEM Secretariat whom have devoted their time to make this event a successful one.

I would also like to thank the IEM President and the Executive committee (Ex-comm) and council members for their support and guidance to ensure the success of this event.

Thank you and enjoy your dinner Let us GROW together Yau Chau Fong Organising Chairman

IEM e g a s s PRESIDENT’S Me

I

t is my great honour to welcome you to the 63rd IEM Annual Dinner and Awards Night. We are indeed privileged to receive a lot of support with the presence of our distinguished guests from government agencies, institutions of higher learning, professional bodies and industry leaders. To our guests and IEM members here with us tonight, meeting face-to-face for a dinner or networking has become a much craved for luxury ever since the onslaught of the pandemic.

I have attended numerous IEM Annual Dinners since I became active in IEM, but never in my dreams when I joined IEM as a Member in 1992 that I will one day be attending the dinner in the capacity of IEM President. I am truly grateful to all the Past Presidents, as well as to all the IEM Office Bearers and members for the guidance, advice and support given to me. Without the solid support from each one of you, I would not have the opportunity to lead our beloved Institution. I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional contribution by the Organising Chairman, Ir. Yau Chau Fong, his diligent Organising Committee members and the hardworking secretariat staff for making this event a reality despite a lot of obstacles.

Most of the countries around the world have decided to reopen their borders and their economy under the “Live with COVID” approach, and Malaysia is no exception. We are fully aware of the challenging environment that we are operating in. The falling exchange rate and rising inflation are making life difficult for everyone, yet we are required to do more to minimise the impact of climate change and environmental degradation. Even major industries are also feeling the pinch. In order to survive in the long run, our community and our businesses have to adapt to the new normal, and we as professionals should do our best to facilitate this transition. Otherwise, our country might run the risk of lagging behind in this global race for recovery.

Since many industries depend on engineers to sustain production, it will not be exaggerating to state that engineers are the drivers of our economic development. Hence, the theme “GROW” is very apt for the IEM Annual Dinner and Awards Night this year. We talked about healing and rejuvenation last year and now is the time for setting GOALS, REINFORCEMENT of our beliefs and looking for OPPORTUNITIES via networking to enhance our WORTH. I would like to thank you very much for your continuous support for IEM. Together lets look forward to a better tomorrow!

KEN HOLDINGS BERHAD Conferment of IEM Awards

‘Outstanding Engineering’ With the culmination of decades of hands on engineering experience and ingenuity, our founder and Group Executive Chairman Dato’ Kenny Tan Boon Kang has developed the multiple Platinum award winning green building: Menara

KEN TTDI.

With a design aimed at maximizing natural light and features such as the 24-hour zoned air-conditioning system, creating energy efficient work, recreational and great spaces.

Menara KEN TTDI is designed to embody the essence of energy efficiency. The 24-hour zoned air conditioning with individual control allows Tenants to switch on at specific area.

It is suitable for MNCs which require long and flexible hours.

Furthermore, the office space is filled with ample natural light from the full height centre atrium from level 2 to rooftop. It uses a high performance double glazing facade which minimizes the excessive heat and indirectly reduces

the operation cost. Menara KEN TTDI also ingeniously reutilises the exfiltrated cool air from the air-conditioned spaces to cool all the internal circulation. This enhances the indoor environmental quality by optimizing the thermal comfort for the users yet reducing the usage of air-conditioning.

Building work-life balance into its spaces and with space efficiency at the heart of its design, Menara KEN TTDI comprises Platinum Grade office suites, performing arts theatre, art gallery, ballroom and function rooms, food and beverage outlets, rooftop gymnasium and four levels of basement car park. This is how Menara KEN TTDI offers a lifestyle suited for today’s urbanites and corporate executives where work, play, rest and culture are all available under one roof while aiming to promote healthier and sustainable communities by redefining ways to effectively utilize energy and promote water efficiency.
