TITLE OF SEMINAR : Sharing Sessions With Mr Teoh Shi Sheng

TIME : 5.00 - 6.30 p.m.
VENUE : Faculty Of Engineering And Environment, National University Of
Malaysia
SPEAKER : Mr Teoh Shi Sheng
Environment Engineer

MODERATOR : Dr. Irfana Binti Kabir Ahmad
PARTICIPANTS Forth Year Civil And Environmental Students (JKAS)
INPUT OF SEMINAR :
Teoh Shi Sheng works as an environment engineer at Gamuda Engineering Sdn. Bhd. He
shared with us about the job scope of an environment engineer. He is responsible to conduct monthly
environmental inspection and annually internal audit. At the same time, maintain, revise and update
management procedure documents based on ISO 14000. In addition, he must ensure compliance of
all projects with DEIA, EMP , Legal and other requirement and involve in SIRIM annual re-
certification. Last but not least, as an environemnt engineer he also need to study and provide
environmental related documents and presentation for tendering purpose.

During the sharing session, he also shared with us about the Ikigai concept. Ikigai is a Japanese
concept that means "a reason for being. The word ikigai is usually used to indicate the source of
value in one's life or the things that make one's life worthwhile. Secondly, the word is used to refer to
mental and spiritual circumstances under which individuals feel that their lives are valuable. It's not
necessarily linked to one's economic status or the present state of society. Even if a person feels that
the present is dark, but they have a goal in mind, they may feel ikigai. Behaviours that make us feel
ikigai are not actions we are forced to takethese are natural and spontaneous actions. Our ikigai
is the point where a number of aspects come together, namely what we love, what we are good at,
what the world needs and what we can be paid for. It is where our passion, mission, craft and calling
intersect. The basis for finding our ikigai is usually an extensive search for yourself.

Students should fill the front seat to be clearer and easier to ask.
CONCLUSION:
In conclusion, we get a new knowledge about certain field in civil engineering from this
