CONVERGENCE SEPTEMBER - OCTOBER 2016

Engineers continue to bring
awards for MPC!
Recognition is often regarded as a great motivator and that rings true in the case of the
people working for the Engineering Division at the Malaysia Productivity Corporation (MPC).
The team has been winning awards since its implementation in 2011 and the latest awards
being added to the shelf comes from the Regional Team Excellence Convention 2016 and
the International ICQCC Convention.
The Engineering Division won Gold awards for both the teams that competed at the
Regional Team Excellence Convention 2016 as well as bagging the Gold award at the
ICQCC which stands for International Convention on Quality Control Circles, held at
Bangkok, Thailand on August 24.
The regional teams were TITANS (Electrical Power System KLIA; C. Thavashilan, Nasri
Mohamad Saruan, Airul Hafiz, Rujailani Jaafar, Adi Faizal, Mohd Fazli Othman and Mohd
Nazih) as well as SI'TOOLS (Baggage Handling System KLIA; Mohd Fauzi Ismail, Asmanizam,
Jamal Bakar, Daud Setor, Johari Saleh and Herman) while the International team was PULSE
BHS (Baggage Handling System KLIA; Mohd Fauzi Ismail, Shamsulnazri, Ahmad Nurudin,
Mohd Yusof, Mohd Khairil Izham, Mohd Ainuddin Radzi and Rashidi Mohd Sharif).
The conventions are under the purview of MPC and serve as a platform for experts and
enthusiasts from all over the world to learn from the experiences and good practices of
organisations and teams.

Malaysia celebrates its 59th birthday on 31 August and in
conjunction with this celebration and Malaysia Day which falls
on 16 September, Malaysia Airports is championing Malaysian
products and entrepreneurs to promote their products to all
airport customers through its "#ProudlyMalaysian" campaign.
Held at KLIA and klia2 from 29 August until 16 September, the
campaign allows the airport operator to leverage its position
in promoting home grown brands to a booming international
audience that goes through the airports.
What's
C onverging
Malaysia Airports Senior General Manager of Commercial
Services, Mohammad Nazli Abdul Aziz said, "Airports are
often the first and last destination for visitors and Malaysians
coming in and leaving the country. As the gatekeeper of these
key entry and exit points, Malaysia Airports is well positioned
to champion all things Malaysia."
Among the outlets participating in the campaign are Royal
Selangor, Karyaneka, Corak Rentak, Choc Stop, Upin & Ipin
and be Duty Free. Malaysia Airports has also invited LOKA
to showcase their products at the launch. LOKA represents a
stable of progressive Malaysian labels. They see themselves
as an entrepreneurship development agency that mentors
local lifestyle designers and artists.
There is also a #ProudlyMalaysian contest running between
the same time period. Simply take a picture at one of the
Proudly Malaysian photo booths at the Main Terminal Buildings
of KLIA or klia2 and upload the picture either on Twitter or
Instagram with the hashtag #ProudlyMalaysian and caption it in

e-vouchers and stand the opportunity to win customised
#ProudlyMalaysian prizes. Fifty-nine prizes will be given away
throughout the duration of the campaign to commemorate
