00:00Three, two, one
00:04This facility represents a timely and important investment in our aviation future
00:13Reflecting a shared commitment to safety, skills development and long-term industrial resilience
00:21Malaysia's strategic geographical position, strong connectivity and missions
00:27And growing demand for air travel places in a unique position to become a leading aviation hub in the region
00:36This ambition must be supported by strong human capital and world-class training capabilities
00:43As our aviation sector continues to expand the need for highly skilled pilots, cabin crew, engineers, safety personnel
00:53And aviation specialists will only grow
00:56Robust training institutions are essential to ensure that this growth is supported by competent, safety-conscious and future-ready professionals
01:06The Ministry of Transport consistently emphasises the importance of expanding and animating aviation training programmes
01:14Training excellence are the biggest safety, operational quality and global competitors
01:22And it is a critical enabler for sustainable industry growth
01:26Beyond meeting industry needs, talent development is also about nurturing a society that values science, critical thinking and evidence-based decision-making
01:38Qualities that are fundamental to aviation's safety and equally important for a mature, forward-looking society
01:47By investing in skills and training, we are not only strengthening our workforce but also fostering the culture of rational inquiry, scientific understanding and constructive thinking that helps society move forward together
02:02Therefore, institutions such as ABB Academy play a wider role in this ecosystem
02:08Investment in advanced flight simulators and realistic training environments enhance the quality of instruction
02:16And better prepare aviation professionals for real-world operational challenges while maintaining the highest safety standards
02:25Safety remains the cornerstone of aviation
02:28Through the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia, the Ministry remains committed to strong regulatory oversight and enforcement
02:37Close cooperation between government, regulators, trading institutions and industry players
02:43It is essential to uphold international standards and ensure that safety is never compromised
02:50At the same time, sustainability is becoming a defining priority
02:55The Malaysian Aviation Decarbonisation Grouping, launched in 2024, sets the framework for achieving net-zero emissions by 2050
03:05This transformation required not only new technologies but also workforce that is trained and equipped to support sustainable aviation practices
03:16Training institutions must therefore continue to evolve their curriculum to incorporate environmental awareness, fuel efficiency, sustainable operations and future ready technologies
03:29In doing so, they will prepare the next generation of aviation professionals for an increasingly environmentally conscious industry
03:38MOT welcomes continued cooperation between project sector, regulators and training providers to strengthen aviation training infrastructure
03:48Reduce reliance on overseas training and position Malaysia as an attractive destination for regional and international trainees
03:57In fact, I think this world-class academy here should be open and we should make this as part of our centre of excellence in this region
