A key element of this is the Industrial Skills Training Programme carried out by CCCC and Malaysia Rail Link , in cooperation with Beijing Jiaotong University, Southwest Jiaotong University of China and over 10 educational and training institutions of Malaysia.
Syahmin told Xinhua that he held a long-time fascination with railways after watching documentaries on railway construction in China, sparking his interest in the civil engineering and the railway sector."It opens a path that I have wanted to do from my childhood. So it's very important and very beneficial for me to join the PLKI-ECRL because joining a mega project is not easy for a fresh grad.
Compared to his studies in university, which were more general, this programme allowed him to focus on an area of interest and to expand his knowledge on tunnels, bridges, and other key components of railways, he said. "It is really like we are a team. I can go there and ask them what or how to do this, how to do that. And if I have some idea, I can pitch it to them. So it's very constructive. It has taught me a lot. So CCCC from what I see, it is a family for me," he said, adding that working here is enjoyable and fulfilling.
