Admission to MIArb

Conflict, probably the dispute, prevention and management, or rather its transformations are deemed as core issues in development planning and management works, simply because development projects are, under normal circumstances, not only affected by conflicts or disputes, but also run at the risk of aggravating conflicts that already exist or even of triggering off new conflict dynamics.

The evolution of conflict prevention and management (CPM) as a practice shall depend on the necessary resources being committed to the relevant initiatives in the future. CPM faces serious problems in this respect because it is extremely difficult to evaluate whether conflict prevention initiatives have been responsible for a conflict not having happened?

It, ideally, includes Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), a combined theoretical and practical approach for arbitration, mediation & adjudication, as widely promoted by the relevant professional bodies, such as "Institut Penimbangtara Malaysia" or Malaysian Institute of Arbitrators (MIArb).

Being a professional logistician, having involved in international trade and logistics management regardless of sea, air, rail and land modes, I’m always of the great interest of CPM and ADR.

I think it's ideal to have a forum that involves representatives from various cultural and educational backgrounds, combines a theoretical and policy outlook with a strong focus on the development of new methods for CPM and ADR as well as confidence building. Specifically, the aim is to identify methods, models and strategies for the necessary improvement. This shall be achieved by the sharing of ideas and experience between leading academics, politicians, practitioners, policy makers and leaders abroad.

I'm pleased greatly that I have successfully been admitted as an Associate of the Malaysian Institute of Arbitrators, which entitles the letters "AMIArb". I'm, with inspiring hopes, looking forward to serve, rightfully settle, to my best of knowledge and belief, any Logistics and Transportation related dispute(s) and/ or conflict(s) in the international trade.
