M. A. August 2004. Southeast Asian Studies From A Capital City to A World City: Vision 2020, Multimedia Super Corridor and Kuala Lumpur (121pp.) Advisor of Thesis: Yeong-Hyun Kim In 1991, the former Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad introduced an initiative called Vision 2020, designed to bring Malaysia to a developed country status, and this initiative will eventually support Kuala Lumpur’s position to become a world city. This thesis examines the recent urban restructuring of Kuala Lumpur in terms of the Malaysian government’s current aspiration for world city status. Many capital cities in the developing world have been undergoing various world city projects that aim at, among other things, improving their international visibility, advancing urban infrastructures and promoting economic competitiveness in a global world economy. This thesis focuses on four large-scale constructions in the Multimedia Super Corridor, namely, the Kuala Lumpur City Center, Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Putrajaya and Cyberjaya.

Schoenmaker | Graduation Thesis | March 2016 |i M.G. Schoenmaker | Graduation Thesis | March 2016 |ii Preface This thesis has been written as the final assessment towards the degree of Master of Science in Transport, Infrastructures & Logistics. I got the change to do my graduation thesis at Schiphol, department Cargo, on the subject ‘development of new air cargo warehouses under footprint constraints’. It was a great opportunity to apply all knowledge derived during the courses of the bachelor and master program. It would not have been possible for me to carry out my research without the support of my supervisors. Firstly I would like to thank Hendriena Ritsema, my supervisor from Schiphol. She enabled me to do my project at Schiphol Cargo and supervised me on a daily base. I enjoyed our conversations, research related and also about our joint hobby. Second, I would like to thank my daily supervisor from the TU Delft Bart Wiegmans for all his time and effort by giving me research inputs and by helping me structuring my report.

  • Maintaining Iso 9000 Qms in the Service Sector: a Case of Success from Malaysia
    MAINTAINING ISO 9000 QMS IN THE SERVICE SECTOR: A CASE OF SUCCESS FROM MALAYSIA Roslina Ab Wahid* James Corner Waikato Management School University of Waikato, New Zealand Email: [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The ISO 9000 standards have been the most widely used quality standards in the world and by the rate it is going, it will continue to be so in the near future. The aim of this paper is to highlight how a service organization maintains its ISO 9000 Quality Management Systems (QMS) through continuous improvement. The case being studied is a large cargo transportation company in Malaysia with a global network. Sixteen in-depths interviews were conducted with managers over a period of two months to investigate the critical success factors and issues and challenges in maintaining their successful quality system. Changes and improvements made since the implementation of the ISO 9000 QMS by the organization are also identified. Keywords ISO 9000, Quality Management System, ISO 9000 certification, Continuous improvement, Service sector 1 MAINTAINING ISO 9000 QMS IN THE SERVICE SECTOR: A CASE OF SUCCESS FROM MALAYSIA Introduction The purpose of the ISO 9000 standards is to facilitate the multinational exchange of products and services by providing a clear set of quality systems requirements. It also assists organizations of all sectors and sizes to implement and operate an effective quality management system (QMS). The generic nature of the standards allows interested companies to determine the specifics of how the standards apply to its organization. Registration or certification to the standards demonstrates to customers that the supplying organization has achieved a basic level of quality assurance by the formalization and documentation of its quality management system (Beattie & Sohal, 1999).
