How to Get Here

Getting to Malaysia

Malaysia is easily accessible from most parts of the world by air, land and sea links. There are more than 40 international airlines fly into the country while the national carrier, Malaysia Airlines, has a global network that spans six continents and a national network that covers more than 36 local destinations.

There are six international airports in Malaysia with the main gateway being the KL International Airport (KLIA) at Sepang. It is located approximately 50km south of Kuala Lumpur. The rest of the country including Sabah, Sarawak and the Federal Territory of Labuan in East Malaysia is well serviced by 14 domestic airports and airstrips for the rural areas.

The main entry point by sea to KL is Port Klang, about 50km away from KL. Malaysia is also accessible by rail and road from Singapore and Thailand.

Getting to Sarawak

Kuching International Airport is Sarawak's main gateway. There are near-hourly connections to Kuala Lumpur on Malaysia Airlines, AirAsia, Malindo Air as well as flights to Johor Bahru, Kota Kinabalu and points elsewhere in Sarawak on Fly Asian Xpress (FAX). International connections are rather limited, although there are a few weekly services to Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Jakarta, and Singapore.

The airport underwent a major facelift in 2005-2006 and is now modern and pleasant. Kuching city is about 20 minutes away by taxi, a fixed RM17.50 from the taxi coupon stand just outside arrivals. There are also rather intermittent (once every hour or so) buses to the city center for RM1.

When checking in, note that all flights outside Sarawak are considered "international", even if you're only going elsewhere in Malaysia. There is a basic restaurant on the ground floor before security. The newly opened KFC is located at the left of the terminal on the departure level.

Title
Monitoring and change detection of disasters in Japan by using Synthetic Aperture Radar


Abstract
:

Japan is a country where many disasters such as earthquakes, eruptions and typhoons occur. Therefore, in order to know the disaster’s damages globally and locally, observations by using various sensors which operated in space and on ground are carried out. Sensors using micro waves have the advantage of being able to observe day and night regardless of the weather. Among the sensors that use micro waves, a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can produce ground images from airplane and satellite in details and is suitable for observing changes by disasters. The Japanese airborne synthetic aperture radars are Pi-SAR / Pi-SAR2. The resolution of Pi-SAR2 reaches 30cm. Japanese satellite-borne synthetic aperture radars are the advanced land observation satellites (ALOS) 1 and 2. ALOS 2 can observe same area every 14 days. These synthetic aperture radars have observed many disasters in Japan. The interferometry and polarization observation technologies based on SAR provide very useful information about the damages of disasters. In this presentation, we will introduce Japanese SARs and their observation technologies, and show the results of the Niigata Chuetsu earthquake, Kumamoto earthquake, and Mt. Ontake eruption.

Title: 
How Important is Sustainable Design in Digital Imaging? 
 
Abstract:
 
We are in 1975 (imagine that), and a digital camera had just been invented. It was a 0.01MP camera. What can we do with 0.01MP? No wonder the technology developed very slowly until the year 2000s. It was equivalent to almost 1000 times less spatial resolution that what we have today (in 2019). From time to time, digital imaging has evolved and replacing film-based camera. Whether we realized or not, descriptors that we used in sustainable technology design are also applicable in the development of the digital image technology. Being in digital form enables the images to be reused, re-distributed, recycled and repaired. On top of that, the pixels can be manipulated easily (of course, for good purposes!). Due that, nowadays we can see that everybody is holding a digital camera in their pockets. The camera physical size becomes much smaller than 1975, but the performance is thousand times better. The advantage of digital camera is been utilized not only in normal photography, but also in specialized applications, for instance medical imaging and aerial/satellite imaging. In order to ensure the compatibility between devices, digital image standards were developed, such as JPEG for general imaging and DICOM for medical imaging. In summary, the future of digital imaging looks bright. It is an excellent example of how a sustainable technology was developed to be part of our daily life.

Title:
STEM Education Policy from MOE Perspective: Current Outlook and Way Forward
 
 
STEM Education Policy from MOE Perspective
 
MOE Malaysia is currently promoting STEM for all with effective STEM programmes that engage and inspire students of all abilities and interest. This is to nurture STEM-literate students who are capable of logical thinking, adept at using technology, have the skills to solve problems, innovate, create new ideas, design or invent new products. These skills shall be acquired through an integrated learning of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and a teaching and learning process that apply the real world context through open-ended exploration and hands-on approach. This presentation explains the importance of STEM education and the initiative to strengthen STEM education by MOE Malaysia in preparing students for the 21st century and 4th Industrial Revolution.
Best Practices in STEM Education - Initiative by SED, MOE Malaysia
 
The Sarawak Education Department is working hand in hand with all the relevant stakeholders with regards STEM Education in Sarawak. The aim is to promote and create a conducive environment and ecosystem for the learning of STEM Education in schools especially through inquiry based learning, problem based learning and project based learning. The application of STEM Education can also be implemented in real life situation, science practical works and experiments, hands on activities, interactive games and fun learning. The planning comprises academic programmes (teaching and learning in the classroom), co-curriculum activities (STEM Club, Robotic Club, Innovation Club, etc) and extra classes (remedial, enrichment, prep classes). Operational part and execution of STEM Education initiative will involve teachers, students, school heads, support staffs, parents, community and community leaders. This will create a holistic ecosystem to the whole initiative of STEM Education.
