Business Simulation Training

I presented the Business Simulation comuter software(BEST) to 20 participants from the three organisations in Kuala Lumpur. This simulation game teaches the participants on how to run an insurance company.

The participants enjoyed the game. They were surprised that it gave an interesting insight into the market environment, economic trends, competitive situation, and how they impact on the business strategy.

More details of this game is shown in my website. It can be applied to many businesses, such as insurance, banking, hotel, airlines and retail.

I plan to introduce this software to many organisations in Singapore and Malaysia for their managers to learn about business strategy and entrepreneurship.

Public Transport in Kuala Lumpur

I finished a meeting at the International Center for Islamic Finance in Kuala Lumpur. They are located next to the office of Bank Negara.

My host took me to a LRT station a short walk from the office. He said that it is difficult to call a taxi during the peak hour, and on a rainy day.

I took the LRT for 2 stops to KL Sentral station. I changed to the KLIA Express to get to the airport. The entire journey took 45 minutes. It was easy and comfortable.

This is the advantage of a good public transport system. It beats taxis and private cars.
