2nd Kuala Lumpur Automotive conference 2009
I have had a flyer made, which I have sent to the Asian Strategy & Leadership Institute.
It outlines my Asean + 1 proposal.
I am 100% focussed on this project.
In the past, I have contacted Universities both in Malaysia and abroad regarding this project. They have always been very positive.
If you go into slide share presentation above, and view page 2 you will see the Bernama survey results.
The results of this survey suggest that it is not only the Universities that support the setting up of a Motorsport University in Malaysia.
I would like to think that if a similar survey were to be conducted in China a similar result would be recorded.
Hence my ASEAN + 1 strategy makes sense on many levels
It is my intention to promote the MUM project at this conference. It would be nice to think that educational institutions both local and foreign would take the opportunity to attend this conference and make there support for Motorsport University Malaysia known to local Automotive companies supporting this conference.

*** I would like to make it clear I am not a speaker at this event. I am not receiving payment for promoting either the conference, or the Motorsport University Malaysia project.
I have written to several institutions and people who I feel would benefit from this conference. I am pleased to report that a well known driver and media personality has agreed to come on Wednesday. The person says that my vision for motorsports in Malaysia is the same as his.
