Malaysian Society For Engineering & Technology (MySET) Ready To Help Government Accelerate Development In The Engineering Technology Profession.

PUTRAJAYA, APRIL 7. The proposed formation of the Malaysian Board of Technology (MBOT) will help the country prepare for a more intensive manufacturing and production based economy given the ever increasing demand for more practical-oriented and hands-on engineering technologists in these industries.

“Engineering technologists should not be left in a limbo for far too-long. They are important members of the engineering team who need to be recognized as members of an important profession,” said Prof. Dato Abang Abdullah Abang Ali, the President of the Malaysian Society of Engineeering & Technology (MySET) here today at the 4^th National Engineering & Technology Convention (NETC) 2012.

Climate In Malaysia Getting Worse - MSET

PUTRAJAYA, April 9 (Bernama) -- At present, Malaysia might be considered a safe country, free from most natural disasters, but that might not be the case for very long.

Malaysian Society for Engineering and Technology (mSET) Pesident Prof Datuk Abang Ali said that due to his concern, the NGO would be organized a Regional Symposium on Engineering and Technology 2011 in November in Kuching.

"Whether we like it or not, the situation in Malaysia is getting worse. Earlier we used to talk about simple flooding; now it's more serious flooding. Before we talk about light rain, now we have very heavy thunderstorms that are not only capabale of causing floods, but can also result in serious landsilides.

"And we are alking about other disasters such as earthquakes. Even if it was an earthquake of low or medium intensity, it could affect us is terms of the structure and integrity of our buildings and the infrastructure of the country because most the buildings n Malaysia are not designed for any type of earthquake," he told reporters after the opening of the National Engineering and Technology Convention 2011 (NETC 2011) here Satuarday.

mSET: Govt Should Consult Public And NGOs On Nuclear Energy

PUTRAJAYA -- The government should consult the public and professional non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in the country regarding its plan to develop nuclear energy, Malaysian Society for Engineering and Technology (mSET) President Prof Abang Abdullah Abang Ali said today.

He stressed the importance of both the public and NGOs being consulted as the technology would affect them and impact their safety, immediately and in the future.

Is Malaysia in danger

EARTHQUAKES appear to be occurring with increasing frequency, and they seem to be coming closer to Malaysia. Are we in any danger? This question was on the minds of many Malaysians, especially after the two earthquakes in Myanmar and Bandung recently.

Just prior to that was the monster quake in Japan last month, which registered 9.0 on the Richter scale, and another last Thursday, registering 7.4.

On April 5 alone, 67 earthquakes were recorded all over the world, from Alaska right across the globe to the Solomon Islands with moderate magnitudes ranging from 2.5 to 6 on the Richter scale.

Experts said seismic activity in the ear th’s crust happened every day in varying degrees of intensity and Malaysia, although not in the Pacific Ring of Fire danger zone, “was not immune to it”.
