Today marks a significant milestone in our journey as we gather here to celebrate the successful completion of our Integrated Logistics Management course. I am truly honoured to present the speech to this respected audience, and with immense pride and gratitude, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to each and every one of us for conquering challenges along the way, which would not be possible without the learned and dedicated lecturers, the immeasurable support to each other in the lessons, projects, and preparation for exams.

As we reflect on this achievement, we recognize the dedication, perseverance, and unwavering commitment that has brought us to this point. Our journey through this course has equipped us with the tools and knowledge needed to navigate the intricate logistics landscape with confidence and finesse.

It is not just my own effort that has brought me here. I would like to thank my project mates from R59, R61 and R62. They were always helpful and willing to answer my noob questions since I’m the only 1 in the group not from the logistics industry. Also, not forgetting the TLA trainers that keeps prompting me and my fellow learners to ask questions and calling out our names to answer quizzes when silence is golden.
