Deputy Minister of Transport II’s message for Programme Launch Booklet
It is my great pleasure to launch Nilai International University College’s (Nilai UC) Diploma in Aircraft Maintenance Engineering programme. This is a field that is growing at a tremendous rate and skilled personnel are currently at a premium. It is therefore my fervent hope this programme will help ease the acute shortage the aviation industry is facing in this sector.
Also of significance is that private education institutes such as Nilai UC are making an effort to address these shortages thus slowly weaning the aviation industry off its over-reliance on imported talent. Having a skilled and qualified workforce is not just a prerequisite for any thriving industry; it is a major part of nation building.
The Ministry of Transport is fully supportive of programmes that will enhance the safety and quality assurance of the aviation industry.
Needless to say, it would be a huge bonus if this goal were achieved with local talent and through local institutions. The benefits of such a programme is both numerous and obvious.
With the continued growth Malaysia is experiencing in the aviation industry, many school leavers should see this as a golden opportunity for them as far as a rewarding career is concerned. Having a skilled workforce in the aviation industry will not only enhance Malaysia’s reputation as a world-class transportation hub but also reflect the Ministry of Transport’s firm commitment towards building a skilled and technically competent workforce to serve us all.
