Dear Readers,<br />

Welcome <strong>to</strong> the second issue of Marine Frontier@<strong>UniKL</strong>!<br />

We are happy that we are keeping <strong>to</strong> our targeted publication plan i.e the second issue is <strong>to</strong> be published in<br />

Oc<strong>to</strong>ber 2010 after the first issue in July 2010. It shows the strong commitment of the academic staff of MI‐<br />

MET <strong>to</strong>wards research and consultancy activities. I would like <strong>to</strong> congratulate the Edi<strong>to</strong>rial group under the<br />

able leadership of coordinating edi<strong>to</strong>r, Pn. Nurshahnawal Yaacob for the excellent work of getting the second<br />

issue out on time.<br />

As the journey progresses, we are now going<br />

<strong>to</strong> embark on improving quality, after getting<br />

the quantity! We will improve as we go along<br />

our journey so that “Marine Frontier@<strong>UniKL</strong>”<br />

will be a quality journal after a full year of pub‐<br />

lication. We will be looking at clustering the<br />

articles under different research areas grouped<br />

within the Departments or sections of <strong>MIMET</strong>.<br />

We are going <strong>to</strong> cast our net wider for research<br />

articles from within Malaysian Universities and<br />

research bodies or even international. Anything<br />

related <strong>to</strong> maritime studies including education<br />

is within our ambit and are welcome.<br />

I am glad <strong>to</strong> inform that we have already ob‐<br />

tained our ISSN Number recently: ISSN 2180‐<br />

4907. This means that our Marine Fron‐<br />

tier@<strong>UniKL</strong> can and will be distributed widely.<br />

<strong>MIMET</strong> Technical Bulletin Volume 1 (2) 2010<br />

We would like <strong>to</strong> receive feedback from our<br />

dear readers so that we can keep improving<br />

our technical bulletin. Intending authors are<br />

welcome <strong>to</strong> send in contributions. A guide for<br />

authors is also given at the end of this issue.<br />

Once again, congratulations <strong>to</strong> the Edi<strong>to</strong>rial<br />

group for a job well done.<br />

Happy Reading!<br />
